"This woman is promoting dangerous medical advice. Her judgement is not sound and should not be taken. If you are looking for a physician, please please pass her over."

"I’m all about conversations with people I disagree with but a physician who denies science is insane. Will never return. "

"I would only recommend Dr. Szymkowiak to patients who want a physician to provide all of the information . She is very cable of explaining things to a patient in easy to understand words. What I found she was lacking, as was important to me, was the ability engage in dialogue w/ a patient and to listen. Dr. Szymkowiak never appeared to have any interest in my participation in my care. There was minimal indication she was listening when I shared symptoms and repeatedly lacked empathy. I had an appointment w/ her shortly after losing a family mbr, shared that information and she never acknowledged what I told her, just continued w/ the appointment as usual. I do not question her medical knowledge, however, she generally approached appointments from the stand point that she had all of the knowledge and it was her job to tell me and instruct me. There was no indication that she is aware of the benefit of finding out what the patient may already know and starting the discussion from there. I would classify her as a text book physician. Would guess she was likely a very good student. Did not care for her style of practicing medicine and don't recommend her for individuals who want to develop rapport w/ their physician and participate in their own health care/maintenance"
