Patients praise

Caring/listening and appropriate testing decisions (Dr. Kara Hoisington): patient says doctor takes time, listens, and orders only tests needed
High overall ratings for some endocrinologists in East Lansing (e.g., Dr. Folake Akanbi 4.8/5)
Some staff/visit experience elements described positively (e.g., WebMD page notes 'Staff was courteous')
Comprehensive/appropriate metabolic assessments described for Dr. Dana Fletcher (blood testing/thyroid evaluation noted on profile)

Common complaints

Concerns about bedside manner/communication and being late/short appointment (Dr. Shaza Khan review: 'always late', 'only spends 15 minutes', 'lacks a bedside manner')
Conservative approach not aligning with symptoms/labs (Dr. Shaza Khan review: withholds conservative approach despite age/lab work/symptoms; won't review history until in room)
Lower satisfaction signals for at least one provider (Healthgrades: 3.3/5 overall patient satisfaction/lh recommending)
Reports of delays around getting an appointment/being late (Healthgrades excerpt about waiting and being asked to be 15 minutes early)

""I’d give 0 stars if I could. If you have a parathyroid issue, find another endocrinologist. She withholds a very conservative approach... She’s always late and only spends 15 minutes with you...""

— WebMD review section for Dr. Shaza Khan (East Lansing)

""Dr. H takes time and listens to my concerns. She orders only the tests she needs so that I'm not getting over charged for my lab work.""
