Patient Reviews
Oct 15, 2022
Wow…these reviews don’t match the Dr Belfer I know. He’s definitely five star neurologist (specialist) Dr Belfer has treated me for Almost 3 years. Honestly, I haven’t had any negative visits with him. I hope this review from a person who knows a great physician specializing In neurology is. I’ve seen 8 neurologist lifetime and Dr Belfer has been my favorite. He’s caring, asks all the right questions, and prescribes the right antidote. I’m really clueless how anyone would have a negative experience with Dr Belfer. All I can say is remember that your energy introduces you, before you introduce yourself. Even through this coronavirus pandemic, Dr Belfer an upbeat professional.
