I do not believe Dr. Starr is interested in helping her patients get better. I think she is just doing time. Some of the things she has said to me I feel in retrospect were very unprofessional. When I was moderately overweight, she said it was unfortunate that I was not overweight enough to qualify for gastric bypass surgery. She also once told me she wished she had gone into finance instead of medicine, more money less work. I am not her therapist. It was unprofessional to tell this to her patient.
Dr Starr has been my PCP for close to 10 years. She is unfailing in her attentiveness to detail, to evaluating my concerns and in providing excellent medical care.
Dr. Starr has been my PCP for many years. She is an outstanding physician who takes the time to discuss and explain issues. Very reassuring and what I like is the fact that she does not over prescribe tests and investigations.
I think she is very thorough
She does not really know what's going on. Constantly says "let me look it up" and I constantly have to suggest plans based on what I know from my family member who is a physician. Only reason I have not switched is I've been relatively healthy. Now that I am getting older, I will definitely need someone who actually knows what they're doing.

I am a Registered Nurse. Dr. STARR is one of the best diagnosticians I have seen. I totally trust her with my healthcare needs. Five stars!
The practice has been unrecognizable since Dr. Rees retired. First words out of this doctor's mouth: "I only have fifteen minutes." I'm using Norwood Urgent Care until I can find a new doctor.
Have been patient for over a decade. I find her forthright, up front, very thorough . Very professional and business like. She has been excellent managing my health issues, some chronic, with careful bloodwork and monitoring.Very satisfied with her care.
