Dr. Rivlin is absolutely wonderful. We had a great conversation regarding my health and any changes over the last year before she started the exam. She actually listens and doesn't seem rushed to move along with exam and on to the next patient. I trust her judgment completely because I know she is being thorough.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr Rivlin. She immediately put me at ease and talked about my concerns in a way that I could understand without being patronizing which can be a hard line to walk. She was open to my questions and concerns and treated me as if i was someone she cared about not just another stop in a busy day.
