My visit to Dr. Engel's office was great. His supporting team was wonderful - warm, great sense of humor, etc. - his office was pristine, and Dr. Engel himself was a lovely man. Quick, painless, but thorough visit. Would definitely recommend.
Engel is great. Seems to know what he's doing. Nice guy.
Very pleased with the service.
Well done sir! Nice guy who takes his time with patients.
Highy reccomend- great experience.
He is very thorough and explains prognosis clearly. He takes time and care in every appointment i had so far.
Dr Harry Engel is very cooperative. He received me and explained my case to me in details. He was answering my questions in details and he gave me enough time to clarify all aspect and treatment options. I have read Dr Harry C.V and really he is one of the best doctors I have ever visited . He help me in every things and I leave his clinic with full satisfaction. I recommend diabetic retino pathy patient to visit Dr Harry clinic..
Excellent
Very knowledgable, efficient while still taking time to check everything.
The visit went perfectly. They even called me to let me know I could come earlier, and considering I made the appoint 10 minutes before (same day appointment) I was very impressed. Dr Engel was very professional and explained things succinctly. He also spotted and fixed my problem very quickly. Not everyone has an eyelash stuck in their eye, but out of 3 doctors, he was the only one to even spot it. Definitely recommended.
Not exactly a warm and fuzzy character. I asked him about a mark on my eyes. He didn't seem to see what I was talking about at first. So I said "You can't see it"? Then he gets this annoyed look on his face and says "I look at eyes all day". First of all, that was not a proper response to a yes or no question. Second, I didn't appreciate his tone. The other strange thing was one of his assistants. She must have asked me a million questions that had nothing to do with my eyes. Small talk is okay. But at a certain point I became convinced she was doing some sort of psychological evaluation on me. I had heard the same battery of questions once after I nearly passed out and the doctors wanted to see where my head was at before they released me. Every time I answered a question she would dig deeper, one question after the other in rapid succession. It was weird. Definitely not coming back.
It was excellent!
Dr Engel was very patient and has a pleasant demeanor. I didn't feel rushed and I was comfortable asking any questions.
Excellant
patient and extremely focused. spent over 30 minutes with me and I never felt rush (even though the waiting room was full) - great friendly receptionist, and dental assistant was wonderful. beautiful office and will continue to see Dr. Engel
Overall was a good experience
He was the consummate professional and was genuinely concered, and helpful, with my health concerns. Kudos to him and Zocdoc!
he is very professional and explains what may be the problem and possible solutions.
Extremely thorough and really puts your mind at ease.
Very good visit. My health problem was minor and to his credit, Dr Engel attended to it with the required care; he did not blow it up needlessly.
Great Doctor, very professional...Secretary was a total sweet heart! Thank You both
I enjoyed my first experience at Dr. Engel's office. The office was clean and welcoming and everyone was very friendly. I was seen immediately and was out and on my way back to work in just under an hour (impressive for a first time visit). Mine was probably one of the first appointments of the day (9:45a), so that may have helped to make it a swift and quick visit.
HE WAS GREAT! VERY FAST AND EFFICIENT..I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!
Dr. Engel is very professional and clear with his explanation of the conditions, timeline, expectations, etc. He is also very thorough and takes time to check everything out.
Dr. Engel was very professional and took the time to explain my condition to me in a detailed manner. He even offered up his personal cell phone number in case my issues became worse over the weekend.
Very friendly staff and doctor. Will go back.
Very professional and courteous
He was great. He spent a lot of time with me and diagnosed my condition-macular pucker. He presented the options along with the risks. Highly recommend.
He was very knowledgeable and kind -- highly recommend.
I thought dr.engel was very professional and quick. His pca also was great
Very thorough exam, highly recommended.
They made feel comfortable, they were very knowledgable. Very good.
Clearly an expert, with patience and a willingness to explain things thoroughly.
Dr. Engel is extremely good.
Thorough, and so nice. Very impressed with the most up to date equipment in his office.
Great doctor, very knowledgable and through. Highly recommend.
The office is very clean, modern and spacious. Receptionist is friendly and professional. Dr. Engel took his time to examine me and answer any questions, did not feel rushed at all which is hard to find nowadays. My favorite person was Kim, she does the intake and she was friendly, warm, and professional. Overall great experience. Too bad I have 20/15 vision and don't have to go to Ophthalmologist hardly ever...just had an odd eye irritation.
Excellent!
Great DR great person. Top notch
Dr. Engel is a nice guy, and the exam was thorough.
Dr. Engel was fantastic! I suffered a corneal abrasion at the hands of my toddler and was released from the ER with some pain meds and antibiotic drops. Unsurprisingly, I visited Dr. Engel 2 days later in tremendous pain. He managed my pain, fixed my eye, and saw me daily (including weekends) while I healed. He is a great guy, and an exceptional doctor.
Dr. Engel was incredibly personable. He made a point of explaining the health of my eyes on his own initiative to make sure I understood--unlike many doctors I've seen.
Positive experience. Would return!
His staff was knowledgeable and helpful. The examination was thorough. I would recommend Dr Engel.
He's w great doctor.
I've been to a few eye doctors in manhattan, and Dr. Engel was definitely the best. He took his time, and was very thorough with the eye exam. I would definitely go back.
same day service, polite, concise and effective....highly recommend
Very professional, efficient, friendly office.
Was lucky to get a same-day appointment as a new patient. Dr. Engel was great and even called in my Rx immediately to a nearby drugstore. Well-run office, too.
Great guy. Very helpful. Explained everything that was going on and what I should expect. Plan to see him again.
Great experience!
Very professional, efficient, nice office staff
After several frustrating appointments at NY Eye and Ear, I came to Dr. Engel for a second opinion. In a matter of minutes he was able to diagnose my condition and explain it in layman's terms. Essentially, in 20 minutes he was able to do, what NY Eye and Ear was unable to do over the course of days. He really took the time to answer all of my questions and went above and beyond to make sure I had a clear understanding of my medical condition. I walked out of our appointment very satisfied. Fantastic all around experience!
Dr. was very polite,answered my questions, and let me know I could call or come back if I need any further help. Overall, I was pleased with this appointment.
Very personable and knowledgable doctor.
guy's great / extremely knowledgeable / very available
He was very nice. Asked questions. Answered questions. Explained procedures. Very personable. Lots of patients but was not rushed or delayed.
Everything about visit was great - from ease of making appointment to efficient no wait appointment and clear explaination about opthalmologic issue. I am very happy.
Staff were lovely office was new bright and efficient Dr. was wonderful calming and pleaseant but professional
Pleasant front desk experience. Doctor was attentive, informative, and I think he helped me. (Too late to know for sure.) I intend for him to be my regular ophthalmologist now.
Took his time, very personable. I recommend highly.
Nice guy. He saw me right away. No waiting or BS. Knows his stuff.
Really personable, yet still very professional....nice guy, will definitely be using him as my regular eye doctor. Also is very fast and thorough while still making it as comfortable as possible.
he was very laid back and relaxed and put me at ease
Dr. Engel was very professional, informative and the visit was a pleasure. I would highly, highly recommend him.
Very calm and friendly. Made sure everything was answered before I left the office
He didn't really diagnose my issue, nor did he prescribe any medication or advise. Also I was on time for my appointment and he still took a patient that was late for her appointment before me. I landed up waiting 1/2 hour.
very experienced doctor , he knows what he is doing
Unless you have a serious eye illness don't go to him. He let me know he was a surgeon and really didn't like wasting time with my problem, all thought he did see me
I was very pleased with the whole staff as well as with Doctor Engel. The examination was thorough and reassuring.
Wow... I saw this doctor and both him and his staff made me feel so welcome and comfortable...He is very knowledgable and I would most certainly recommmend him to any and everyone... Thanks Alicia Almorales
he was nice, caring and his staff were a pleasure to deal with.
Very thorough, very personable
Nice clean office. Very friendly warm staff. Would highly recommend.
