Yes, I've been seeing Dr. Kaplan for a long time. I really like her very much, so I'm very happy with her. Only thing I'm not happy, but it's good for her. She's being promoted to some level of a chair. So I'll only be able to see her every year now instead of every six months. So I'm going to have to swap between her and the nurse practitioner. So it's good for her. She's very good. I like her a lot. At least I can still see her, but like I said, no complaints on her. I like her very much.

I very much appreciate Tamara Bockow-Kaplan because she takes care of me and she sees things that I'm even unaware of. She takes the time and effort to make sure that I am going to be well cared for. [redacted] I appreciate her ongoing care.

Dr. Kaplan is an amazing provider. She's interested in your life. She's got fantastic experience and medical knowledge, and she knows exactly how to treat a patient. She knows how to care for a patient, and she really doesn't just care for you, she cares for your whole family. I can't imagine anybody else treating me for my MS except Dr. Kaplan. She's absolutely remarkable, and I'm so grateful that the Brigham hired her. Thank you.

She provided greatly needed reassurance and comfort to me, since I hadn't seen her for a long time, and I had many issues to discuss. The nurse and doctor listened and gave me new options, and were able to get me the medication which I have needed for a while.

Dr. Kaplan and Dr. [redacted] made a great team and made for a very positive experience. The med student [redacted] was a great addition and I am glad to be able to help train the next generation. However, Dr. Kaplan still stands well above almost any physician I have ever seen as a great balance of listening, action, knowledge sharing, and empathy.

Dr. Kaplan was absolutely incredible. She was patient, thorough, and incredibly informative. She took the time to explain everything in detail, and not once did I feel rushed or unheard. We spent about 90 minutes reviewing my medical history and digging into my current challenges. After living with MS for 11 years, I can honestly say this was the best appointment I've ever had. Dr. Kaplan explored a wide range of treatment options with me and ensured I understood each one.
