She was amazing. I felt very listened to and that she was doing her best to help.

Dr. Safyanovskaya has been absolutely phenomenal, by far the best experience I've had with any doctor treating me for my symptoms. She's always made the effort to listen to me and to answer my questions and I've never felt like she didn't believe me when I talked about pain levels or other "invisible" aspects of what I experience. She's also excellent at explaining how different medications work and what new research has come out, which is something that not many doctors seem to want to discuss in any detail.

Yulia is such a wonderful and caring doctor! She takes the time to explain things to me in a way I can understand. I always look forward to seeing her because the effort she makes to educate me is so wonderful. If this world had more doctors like Yulia, the medical world would have a wonderful reputation.
