She has a knack for diagnosing difficult health issues and always goes the "extra mile" if she doesn't know the answer right away. I feel incredibly safe knowing that my health is in "her hands!" Kara, her amazing medical assistant, is so diligent, caring, kind and one of the most hard working people in the Medical community too! There is a reason Dr Repassy has a 5 yr waiting list! I'm so grateful for all she has done for me and my family and continues to do!

Dr. Repassy ALWAYS takes the time to listen to me so she gets the whole story. This has led to a definitive diagnosis for me, and since getting on the right meds, I feel great! Despite being prescribed the medication, I must point out that Dr. Repassy is not huge on medications. The medication she gave me is a prescription, but it's an all-natural, porcine-based pill, not lab-derived chemicals, so that's all pretty cool. Dr. Repassy loves doing weight counseling, and she's even gotten me more active. She has great ideas for fun ways to lose weight and she really understands how the body works. Lastly, her entire staff is amazing. For the first time in my life, I don't dread going to the doctor's office.

I experienced the most rude and disturbing behavior by one of their staff over the telephone that I…read morehave finally decided to find another doctor! It had happened before over the phone that one of the women receptionists spoke rudely and treated me like dirt over the phone. This happened when they were still located at their old address. However what occurred on May 21st was totally outrageous that I don't want to goe back them office after the experience. Here's what happened. Another doctor's office told me that they needed a "referral" from my doctor at Needham Family Practice. So I called them and a woman answered the phone. Maybe because she is basically anonymous she feels that she can verbally abuse callers I don't know, but after I explained what I was told by my other doctor's office staff, the woman abruptly interrupted and said, "First of all, who is this?" After I told her my name and info she stated, "Your last appointment was in July of 2014." As if this was some sort of problem. I had to explain that I had had to delay my followup appointment because of a death in the family. She cut me off again to say a referral wasn't needed. So, I told her how the other doctor's office had just called me and she again very rudely cut me off and ordered me not to yell at her! I was dumbfounded at this bizarre behavior from this receptionist, especially since I hadn't even raised my voice at all. Peeved I stated back to her "Wow, if you think that's yelling you've never heard me yell." She continued talking to me in an extremely rude and combative manner. So I just hung up, otherwise I would have yelled at her. I wrote my doctor Dr. McWha and told him that I didn't "want come back to your office after this experience," and that "I won't feel comfortable having to be confronted by this person in the future." I paid him the kindness of writing a letter explaining why I didn't want to use their services anymore and he just ignored my letter. He once wrote me a letter because I had to change an appointment, but I guess their staff is sacrosanct. In my opinion Dr. McWha wasn't a bad doctor nor Dr.Corcoran, however their preformances as doctors doesn't out weigh the negative treatment of the harridan I encountered. A previous doctor who worked there Dr. Finn, who has moved on, misdiagnosed an infection on my father's legs. He said it was "salt." It wasn't salts building up and oozing out of his legs it was a virulent infection which ended up killing him. So, yeah, there has to be a better place where the staff is nicer and the doctors are better than Needham Family Practice. Since the office moved it is not as close to the main hospital either.

Avoid: doctor cares more for his financial well being than your well being…read more I never thought I'd write a negative review for a doctor. However my wife and I have had a terrible experience with the doctor and their billing practice. The short of it is, the doctor moved locations and because the new location was much less convenient, we canceled our appointment. We spoke to them twice before the date of the appointment, and both times requested to cancel the appointment. Doctor's practice did not cancel the appointment and then charged us a no-show fee. We called to ask them to remove this bill as it was inaccurate. We called multiple times and left messages, but no one returned a call. Finally after our frustration was mounting, the doctor himself called. Instead of listening to us, it was clear from the beginning that the doctor had it in mind to "tell us off." The call was a formality merely. He asked if the call was being recorded, and when I told him no - he proceeded to tell us how his staff is never wrong and that it's our problem. He was curt and condescending in his tone - and he clearly did not really care. When I mentioned that we canceled because their practice had moved locations, he did not seem to care. As long as he got his money, even for billing us wrongly, it did not matter to him. He proceeded to hang up on me as well. He said his piece, he told me off, and he had no further need of wasting his precious billable time on me anymore. I would like to call out the front desk staff is very kind and patient. Excellent bedside manners, so to speak. However the doctor does not embody these traits as well as his staff. He could learn from his staff. It's unfortunate that our medical system places the doctor's financial growth at the opposite end of patient well being. If you want a doctor that cares for you and bills you for services actually rendered, this is not your doctor. There are many more in and around Needham and Wellesley that I can recommend.

I have been seeing Dr. Fogg as my primary care physician for over five years now. Although it…read moremight not be important to some, it was important for me to have a PCP who also has a degree in Public Health (MPH) since I believe prevention to be an essential part of medicine. The first time I met with Dr. Fogg, she asked me so many questions (not just about my personal health) to try to get a sense of who I was and what might be important issues for my health care. Now it was over five years ago, but I remember her spending a full hour with me during that first appointment. She is very approachable and seems to truly care about her patients' health. A couple of years ago, I had a medical concern and actually emailed her through the patientsite website. She returned my email promptly (within 2 hours and it was after 8pm) and I was able to schedule a time to see her within the week. I truly believe that she provides outstanding medical care and prevention tips. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a doctor.

In December of 2018, she saved my life! I was behind on a routine mammogram during one of my visits and did not feel like going. With her gentle coaching, I went and I am so grateful I did. There was a tumor very deep in my right breast that I would never have felt. I was treated all of 2019 and although it did spread to my lymph nodes after I was diagnosed, I can say that I felt more comfortable speaking with Dr. Schwartz than the oncology staff I had at the time. She helped me transition to Dana Farber and also has been extremely helpful with all of my medical and emotional needs, always taking her time with me. I am blessed and honored to be her patient.

They work together as a team, which is something you don't see very often. I have been going there for quite a while, and everyone there, at one point or another, has gone above and beyond to help me. Vicky, Dr. Goldman's assistant, is marvelous. She is always so pleasant and personable. Recently, I discovered that it was she who took it upon herself to write what must have been a master crafted PA in order to obtain Lidoderm Patches for me. I have been trying to obtain them via insurance for over a year. Three doctors have tried, as well. These patches are the one thing that cures my pain. I had resorted to buying them from Canada for close to $200. One day, I got a letter in the mail stating my appeal had been approved. Now, a month's supply is under $5. Dr. Goldman is a stellar doctor, who takes time to listen and offer knowledgeable, compassionate feedback. I've never felt rushed out his office. He's sincerely concerned and has been there for me during recent health crises, which I will never forget. He's also funny, witty and sharp. His calming demeanor has made me feel at ease. I don't normally call health providers, but have called Dr. Goldman. I feel comfortable with him, and know he's not going to balk at my concern(s). He really wants to help, and it shows. Excellent staff; I just can't say enough good things about you. Thanks!
