Karen H Costenbader, MD, MPH

Doctor is the best

Dr. Costenbader is an excellent provider. I have a complicated medical history and she takes the time to discuss, asks questions, keeps a watch on my labs, orders necessary tests, and provides follow up with other specialists. She is also exceptionally responsive via the portal. I am always amazed at how she takes the time to personally respond.

Easy to talk to. Knew a lot. Very helpful and kind.

I feel very comfortable working with Dr. Costenbader. She is just very empathetic to what's going on with myself, with my medical condition. I feel completely 100% confident with her being in charge of my care and sending me to other areas to get things checked out. For me to come home with a young family knowing that my medical is being carefully looked after means a lot to me.

Dr. Costenbader is absolutely wonderful. She spends a lot of time with me, understands everything, discusses my plan of care, and I couldn't be more happy with her. Thank you.

Dr. Costenbader goes above and beyond to follow up and make sure I feel comfortable, and you can tell she really cares. She listens, she explains things clearly, and she never makes me feel rushed. I always leave feeling supported and looked after.

I have been a patient of Dr. Costenbader since 2000ish. [redacted] She did not review my medical notes before I arrived and appeared puzzled at what has been going on with me medically over the last two years despite my oncologist having contacted her in the summer. I was very, very disappointed at how rushed our appointment was.The session was interrupted 5 times with phone calls she answered. Also, at the end of a short session with her, she was rushing out the door as I continued to talk with her about future treatment. I would gladly schedule a double session with her if I could have her undivided attention.

I have known Dr. Costenbader for almost 10 years, and I feel like she has the best handle on what is actually going on with me, and I've had a very complicated medical course in the past three years. I feel that she really takes the time to know what's going on, and I trust what she says. She always follows up, and I really appreciate her.

Dr Costenbader is a real treasure. She took her time, synthesized information quickly and sent me her analysis in 72 hours. My case presented as complicated and she processed it quickly and was so fast in communicating to me her analysis. Her bedside manner was incredibly professional yet approachable. My only criticism, thigh not her fault, is that she hadn't reviewed any of my medical history because the information wasn't on the portal. [redacted]. In any event, she is outstanding and a treasure for BHW. I am so fortunate to have been a patient of hers. Thank o you for such an outstanding experience.

Dr Costenbader is the best, both technically and her caring manner. I feel very comfortable talking about any issue I have with her.

Dr. Costa made her very easy to talk to and she was very thorough. I have a fair bit of medical issues and she was able to go through my entire history and understand my issues

It was a very good appointment with Dr Costenbader. She is very good.
