Dr. Steven J. Korenstein

"Very personable doctor. He was attentive to detail, heard our concerns and answered them all thoroughly and professionally. We feel we're in good hands with Dr. Korenstein at the helm. (His medical assistant Morgan was great as well:)"

"This guy is the worst doctor I've ever been to. I had an ear infection and needed antibiotics but he couldn't get me in for a whole week. I asked if there was another provider at providence I could see and he told me no and to go to Redwood Urgent Care where I would have to pay out of pocket. I called another provider at providence anyway and she had openings immediately available. Dr Korenstien obviously doesn't have his patients best interests at heart. Then, his office staff tried to tell me that I couldn't see another provider without his approval which was also baloney."

"If I could give zero stars, I would. Dr. Korenstein was rude, arrogant, and unprofessional. I didn’t feel as though I was listened to at all during my appointment and I have talked to others in our community who have had similar experiences. When I asked to make a complaint, I was dropped as a patient all together. Don’t waste your time or money on him; this practice has other (more professional) doctors! All the PAs were professional and kind."

"Dr. Korenstein is my two daughters physician, as well as my own. I have been very pleased with his level of professionalism and friendliness. He is very intelligent and competent. He sets my young daughters at ease by keeping them laughing with silly jokes, while also giving them sound advice about safety and health related issues. I would highly recommend him to others looking for a doctor."

"Had to switch to new doctor because my previous doctor moved on. Went to Eureka Family Practice and was placed with Dr Korenstein. My first visit was with his Nurse Practicianer, who was very nice and professional. Had a follow up appt with Dr. Korenstein to meet and go over bloodwork. From the minute he walked in the door, it was a downhill slope. He barely introduced himself when he started diagnosing my asthma. He never got to know my history or me. He just was giving a blanket treatment. I wasn't even there for my asthma. He told me I needed to be on a medication that I was on in the past which didn't work for me, but he continued to push the issue. He was condescending, insulting and very unprofessional. His tact and manner were deplorable. let alone his blanket approach to medicine without getting to know the patient. Upon reporting this to the Practice Supervisor, I was abruptly dropped as a patient. So not only would I never recommend Dr. Korenstein as a physician, I recommend everyone stay away from Eureka Family Practice. Just another blemish on medicine in Humboldt County."
