Dr S is awesome
Dr. Schoenbrun is a truly excellent primary care doctor. She is highly knowledgeable, listens exceptionally well, is efficient , provides the patient ( me) with informed answers to my questions and understands my responses and provides information to me as almost " follow up" - meaning she anticipates from knowing me other questions I might have later in view of the information we talked about in the day of the visit, and thus, in one visit is able to "solve" an issue and provide a treatment plan going forward without having to schedule an additional visit. She Is also kind, understanding, and has a friendly demeanor.In 66 years, having been in several very good medical systems for my care ( including Stanford, Kaiser Nor Cal and UCSF) ,which is more complex than average, she is tied for the top spot with just a few others. She is excellent in all ways. Her staff is also very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly .My quality of life and state of better health is vastly improved under Dr. Schoenbrun's care.
Sara is amazing and really takes the time to communicate very well her thought processes as she analyses your issues and devises her plan. She is able to act as if she has all the time in the world and your problems are her only focus in the moment by paraphrasing and clarifying her understanding as well as asking open questions, not being judgmental, and considering your opinion and how the plan might work for you.

Dr Sarah is always very attentive, organized, educational and helpful. It is a delight to have her as my doctor.
I got a really good vibe from my provider. I like that, she was very concerned about my health and was willing to discuss my [...] with me on my follow up appointment. Good job.
This was my first visit with Dr. Schoenbrun and I was realizing just moments before she arrived that I was worried I wouldn't connect with her. But I was dead wrong - what an easy to talk to and fine human - plus she had read up on my medical history and quizzed me about a lot of specifics. We chatted about her working on developing us of storytelling - the structure of narrative - in training residents to be better at their jobs and thus help patients do better. I feel extremely lucky and look forward to having her help me along my way.
Dr. Sarah Schoenbrun is an excellent physician, listens intently, explains well the treatment in detail, very knowledgeable, a delight to have as my physician.
