    How was your appointment with Dr. Ostrov?

    Dec 19, 2020
    I never write reviews but I feel I need to say something regarding the wonderful Dr. Ostrov. She was my doctor all my life and diagnosed me with JRA around when I was 1 year old. I felt like she was part of my life because I literally grew up with her. I am now 31 with two boys and she took the time to check out my first son out of the kindness of her heart to make sure he had no signs of RA. She has not met my 2 year old yet because she left Hershey and went to NY. I wish I could have her check him for me too because I ONLY trust her. It has been really ROUGH with my current rheumatologist. They are just not her! I am writing this because I would like everyone to know that you are LUCKY if Dr Ostrov is your doctor! She was my lifesaver and I thank God for her! I wish her nothing but happiness on her new journey in NY. I hope to see her again soon! -Britani
