Patient Perspective

Our patients are our highest priority. We understand that surgery can be nerve-racking, we work hard to ensure that all of our patients feel comfortable, confident and informed about their condition throughout the entire process. Here is what some of our patients have to say about their experience with Stony Brook Urogynecology:


"I was referred to Stony Brook’s Urogynecology physicians by my primary care doctor. From the start, Dr. Budnick went over, explained everything and gave me all my options. Right from the first person I met, everyone was caring and attentive. Staff was coming here all the time to see what was needed and helping me heal."

- Patient of Dr. Lauri Budnick


"Dr. Budnick is a very thorough in her exams. She puts the patient first, gives options for each option their benefits and risks. She addresses all concerns the patient may have. I found her to be very professional and had complete trust that she would individualize my treatment that suited what would be the best outcome for my body."

- Patient of Dr. Lauri Budnick


"I have over 30 years in health care, I found Dr. Budnick very knowledgeable and thorough. Very happy to have found her. I have been to many Doctors who never found the problem- thanks to her, problem FOUND!"

She is above and beyond excellent, I have found the best."
