Rahav Wellness - New York, New York

I am a huge believer in functional medicine. I think it’s the future of medicine and I am currently working on my masters program in biomedical ethics and just graduated from law school in order to work on healthcare policy and one day hope to incorporate functional medicine as part of fully covered preventative medicine care. I understand we aren’t there yet and I was happy to pay the cost to receive proper care.

That is not what I received at Rahav. They were absolutely terrible at communicating as a practice and everything was for money. To the point where I wasted hundreds and hundreds of dollars on absolutely nothing. There was zero interest in my well being personally. I am currently working with a new functional medicine doctor who is AMAZING!!! She listens and actually addresses my issues as opposed to just the textbook material that addresses “cortisol” or “hormones” without actually tailoring the care to my needs. For this cost this was an unacceptable experience. Of course they are going to reply with saying that I clearly had the wrong expectations etc. etc. but I have studied this practice so much, I know how it works and I’m working with someone who is proof of that. Either way I’m writing this review not even to bash on Rahav but just to tell the general public that there is better out there! I recommended Dr. Klimenko to my best friend as I saw she got great reviews and she has been seeing her and LOVES her.

For the amount of money you are paying you should be SURE of the care you are receiving and know that the entire team will work with you.

I hope anyone looking for this type of care receives what they deserve!

I don’t have chronic conditions but knew that I could further improve my well-being (i.e. build better eating habits, address deficiencies), so I took the plunge and signed up with Rahav Wellness to get more informed about what’s going on with my body. So far I’ve worked most closely with Kira, and she has been *phenomenal* with helping me understand what kinds of concrete steps I need to take to improve my gut and overall health. I found the labs to be super comprehensive, and their approach is very holistic and centered on lifestyle changes. It was evident from the outset that Kira & team truly cares about you and your healing, and are committed to helping their patients thrive. Very grateful for their service and unique approach to optimizing health!

All doctors treat, but a good doctor lets nature heal.
I can't thank you enough for the special, excellent teaching you have provided and for the unique gift you are to your patients. “I am blessed that you are a friend and a Physician. I have great confidence in you and your abilities” You are indeed a blessing to Humanity. Remain blessed.

Dr. Miriam Rahav is woke and that is all.

If you need more:

I’m not one to rush into calling a doctor; my doctor. I take my time to see if a doctor is about my wellbeing or prescribing a pain killer to move on to the next patient. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a doctor as “a person skilled or specializing in healing arts.” Dr. Miriam Rahav through her treatment allowed my body to heal. She is a doctor and a healer with her mastery. In early April of this year, I got infected with COVID-19 and it was not until recently that I was able to confirm having antibodies. In the mist of the growing pandemic my PCP went silent with an overwhelming number of patients. I remember getting ready to buckle down with over the counter pain killers and fever reducers, as Urgent Care had prescribed. Then I was recommended to Dr. Rahav. She is the most gracious and in-depth thinking doctor I have ever met in my life. I can’t put into words the fear of not being able to take care of my family. After her assessment and treatment, I got better and was able to continue my work as an essential worker. I wouldn’t put my review up without thinking critically and doing my own research, as Dr. Rahav introduced me to tools that helped my body heal and promoted my health to a level I never knew before COVID. I highly recommend her and her team. They are all phenomenal! I feel fantastic. Thank you!!

Dr. Rahav is the kindest, most personable doctor you’ll ever meet. These days, it’s unique to find a doc who actually cares about you/ your health, and Dr. Rahav not only cares, but is known to spend hours talking with her patients, getting a complete family history and connecting the dots. The photo I’m including is of Dr. Miriam Rahav with my daughter, Miriam. The significance is that after numerous unsuccessful IVF treatments and miscarriages, Dr. Rahav found a thyroid issue that was under the radar and thus unaddressed - once I was on the right medication, I was able to successfully carry a pregnancy. Needless to say, I’m so grateful for her thoroughness and diligence.

I've been seeing NP Kira Oberle for thyroid/overall health management and I haven't had a better experience in my roughly 25 years in seeing various medical professionals. She is extremely knowledgeable, listens to your concerns and works with you to decide on the best way to manage your care (unlike many conventional medicine practices). You can tell she actually cares about her patients and ensuring that they get back to feeling 100%. She responds to any questions or requests that I have promptly as well (even on nights and weekends!). Thank you Kira!

Dr. Miriam Rahav is a shining example of what medicine at its pinnacle of patient centeredness and comprehensiveness can be. Dr. Rahav has personally solved health issues for me that no other doctor I consulted was able to help me with (gut health related). She has changed my health and my life for the better. You could not ask for a finer physician or human to be in your corner. If you are contemplating consulting with her please call soon, as she books out quickly. Don't hesitate. i would give her a 1000 starts if i could!

Dr. Miriam Rahav is probably one of the most brilliant doctors practicing today. Her sharp analytic skills, her familiarity with all the latest cutting edge functional approaches to medicine, her deep empathy, and her absolute commitment to her patients is what allows her to assess and heal patients whom many other doctors have failed to help. If you have a chance to get in to see her, count yourself as very lucky indeed!
