So you'll see the reviews here are split into 5-star, and 1-star, and nothing in between!…read more The 1-star reviews complain about appointments sometimes starting late, and the way Dr Hanberg presents in meetings. If guaranteed timeliness, a 15-minute meeting, and 'buddies on the golf course' presentation are more important to you than having a chronic and mysterious health condition solved: yes, please stay away. Dr H is a genius who cares deeply for her patients. She is at the leading-edge of *real* Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment. Some of the complaints about timeliness are because she works at a hospital in the day, takes Lyme patients in the evening, and sometimes has to deal with hospital emergencies - which obviously stretches her day even further. Her assistant Brenda displays equal care, going above and beyond to help organize care and save costs. The 5-star reviews are from those who genuinely see the genius, kindness and care. And are prepared to 'pay' the frankly trivial price of working around some of the rough edges. [My review is based on 4-5 years of working with Dr H on the health of my daughter, who had a chronic, mysterious, life-threatening condition that Dr H identified, and has helped to treat. I'm a neuroscientist with advanced training in theoretical physics. As others have said about their cases: Dr H saved my daughter's life when no-one else could. ]

This is the best way I can share how brilliant Dr. Hanberg is and what she brings to the practice…read moreof medicine -- what does for her patients: share an excerpt from the memoir I'm writing. Sometimes our angels come to us in mysterious ways, and sometimes we don't appreciate them when we meet. In addition to the doctor who was present when I was being born, Dr. Hanberg is the physician who probably deserves the most credit for saving my life and putting me on the path to the best health possible of any doctor I've ever met in my entire life. And you know what? I was so bratty and spoiled and self-absorbed in my own fantasy love story that I don't think I ever thanked her once for what she did for me (other than this yelp review and of course what she did for me will all come up in the book). Like Einstein, brilliance is eccentric, brilliance bounces around, brilliance is quiet and unassuming. If you're lost and looking for a little guidance, like a light in the fog of holy shit I'm neck deep in sea of suffering and sh*t, go see Dr. Hanberg. *** CHAPTER 15: "Holy shit I've never seen anything like that before!" I lay in the hospital bed at St. Joseph's Hospital in Burbank listening to the sounds of the machines. The sounds of steps down the hallway. The sounds of cries from the room across the hall. There's always sounds inside the walls of a hospital. Sounds straight from a horror film. Having just been diagnosed with C-Diff, the new antibiotics I started in the hospital were starting to work and my bowels were slowing returning to normal. A few weeks earlier when I was dosing myself up with handfuls of amoxicillin tablets I knew I was gonna pay a price, and C-Diff was the price. As much as a C-diff infection presented an entirely new set of problems, I didn't once regret the mounds of mouthfuls of amoxicillin I took leading up to my first hospitalization at Cedars-Sinai on September 17th, 2005. That amoxicillin kept me alive. As I lay in the darkness pondering my new stew of misery, the door creaked open. "Sorry I'm so late." It was Dr. Hanberg. I liked late night visits. I'm usually up all night when I'm at the hospital. (And at home too.) "No problem, thanks for coming by." I meant it. "I've just spent the last few hours reviewing your case and--" Normally I would think a doctor was full of sh*t if they said they had just spent a few hours reviewing my case, but I believed her. She sounded determined to find a way out of this medical maze of hell I was living in. I appreciated that more than I could express. "after going over your records...the turbulent last few weeks...and I spoke with Dr. Schroeder..." Hearing his name made me happy. I sat up a little. "--and I like him by the way--" I hope not in the way that I like him. I watched Dr. Hanberg swirl my case around in her mind...like someone close to putting their finger on something that that they can't quite reach. "Your case is complex, there's a lot of things going on...autoimmune, infectious..." She looks at me closely, like she's taking a fresh look to see if there was something she might have missed. She paused, after careful deliberation she was sure we should take this turn together. "Have you heard of IVIG?" Hmm...I'd never heard of IVIG. "IVIG is immunoglobulin, it's effective in helping patients with immune disorders, both infectious and autoimmune disorders...I think it could help you. Would you be interested in trying it?" While I wasn't convinced I had multiple sclerosis - in fact I thought the MS diagnosis was a big distraction from the issues truly plaguing me - but if IVIG could work for both infections and autoimmune problems, then maybe I could make the people who think I have MS happy while I also help myself recover from the infections truly retching my soul by trying this IVIG. "Yes, sure, I'll try it." She nodded, I'd heard her. I could tell she hadn't come to the decision to order IVIG lightly, she had put a lot of thought into it. I was grateful that she understood how bad my infections were, in spite of the fact I didn't 'look sick'. Dr. Hanberg was listening.

It's a shame that your office didn't communicate thoughtfully and even more of a shame that you don't want to help people that can't afford PPO insurance.
