Lisa Snow, MD

Finally, after going to 4 other doctors, I found a doc who could give me an accurate diagnosis. She asked intelligent questions, listened carefully, and performed a thorough exam after taking a detailed medical history. Do they even teach these essential skills in med school today? Thank you Dr. Snow for mapping my road to recovery.

I have had T1 diabetes for 12 years and have benefited from some great doctors — unfortunately, Dr. Snow is not one of them. Her knowledge about diabetes is extremely outdated; she could not provide me any information or guidance about using my insulin pump (a technology that has been out for decades). Additionally, her office does not check A1C levels, something that is vital to diabetic health and that is a common practice in most endocrinology offices.
When I asked Dr. Snow to write an accommodation letter for me so that I could be allowed to bring in diabetes supplies to my Medical College Admissions Test, I had to verbatim dictate the entire letter to her during my office visit, as she was confused by the directions and unsure of what to do. I was shocked: a doctor of 30+ years experience did not know some simple grammar or how to compose a basic letter for a patient. Not only did I compose my own cover letter for the accommodation, but I wrote my doctor’s letter, too! The office charged both my insurance and me personally ($ 20) for the letter.

was able to fit in an appointment to see doc this month. had to since my prescription was about to run out.
there were lots of time slots available a week before the appointment. when i showed up, the waiting room was packed like sardines and the doc ran an ½ hour late.
found out from the doc i am still alive and ticking,
