Jennifer Henson, MD - Schenectady (NY)

5 /5 C: Dr. Henson was hands down one of the best doctors Ive ever seen. Until I saw her I thought that doctors who actually cared about the people they saw were a myth, and she proved me wrong in the best way. When I first started seeing her I was going through one of the hardest times in my life. I had been struggling with medical issues that no one would take seriously and as soon as I started seeing her that all changed. She took me seriously when others had brushed me off. She set me up with referrals to specialists to have everything investigated after years of being told that there was nothing wrong with me and being sent home in pain. It had gotten to the point that I felt like maybe I was crazy and that there was actually nothing wrong with me. And when I told her that I was depressed because of what I was going through and didnt have coverage for mental health services she took care of it and made sure I was able to get started on medications that I desperately needed to get me through those dark times. I dont know that I would still be here today if she hadnt helped me as much as she did. Her kindness, expert care, and sheer willingness to help saved me from myself. It was debilitating, both mentally and physically to be in the amount of pain I was, and to have no answers for anything. To be treated like I was fine for so long when I clearly wasnt is something that was legitimately traumatic. Because of her care and understanding I finally got a diagnosis for a congenital defect that had been destroying my life from the moment I was born. And anytime I had issues with my coverage making scripts too expensive she worked with me to figure out where they could be sent that would make them affordable. The only reason shes not my primary care physician still is because of me having to move. If I could have brought her with me I would have. Im still in the process of resolving everything due to the move, but thanks to her I was finally able to get the ball rolling on and am now being taken seriously when I get seen. Dr. Henson, if you see this review I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are a blessing to any patient lucky enough to have you.

1 /5 Mindi Modiano: After 10 years of using this practice, and being very familiar to the receptionists, based on todays experience, I will find a new physician with courteous office staff. I was running late for my appoint, called to let them know and arrived 13 minutes late. After sitting, all alone, in the waiting room for 5 minutes the receptionist went to tell the Dr. that I arrived. I was then informed that because I was late they would not see me. When I pleaded with her, she rudely said this is not up for discussion. Do your self a favor and dont use this office.

5 /5 Rita Musto: I just moved to the area and found this practice close to my familys home. I was seen by Carmen Cardinale who was extremely personable and attentive Nursing Practitioner. Carmel was proficient at her job, and took time out to call me regarding a reaction I had to one of the vaccinations. I would recommend this Practice to anyone looking for a caring Doctors Practice.

5 /5 Frank Ralbovsky: I have always had excellent care, as had my entire family. The doctors and support staff, past and present, could not have been better professionally and personally to us. My personal physician has litwrally saved my life with her caring persistance, diagnosis, referrals, an followup. Thank God for these people!

5 /5 Eleanor Murray: PLEASE NOTE MANY REVIEWS ARE VERY OLD AND REFER TO THE WRONG (2 STORY) BUILDING IN NISKAYUNA. DR. HENSON NOW PRACTICES IN THE ONE STORY BUILDING IN ROTTERDAM. I have been seeing Dr. Henson for about 2 years and am remiss in not previously offering a review. She is smart, competent, professional, and has been very helpful in managing my health. Im not crazy about the fact that the practice has recently become part of Community Care which I left over their draconian "guidelines."
