I made an online appointment at 10 am on a Saturday for 1pm with Dr Frenkel . The receptionist was wonderful both on the phone and in person ...when I arrived she helped immediately .I was in the examination room right away .Dr Frenkel was both proffessional and helpful . He answered all my questions and took care of all my concerns No woman likes this experience but it is necessary.I have never had a male gyn and really was never comfortable with the thought .... However this was by far the least uncomfortable exam I have ever had .. the medical assistant drawing my blood was wonderful too. The office was clean ...And Updated I would definitely return and recommend this office too anyone. Thank you too Dr.Frenkel and his team !!
This is the third time I've been in to see Dr. Frenkel and each time I've tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. The first time I understood his MA was out and he was extremely busy, the second time I said his nationality played a part in his very direct/non sensitive approach, but this last time there was no excuse. He's very short with his words and talks down to his patients. He brushes things off like they are no big deal. The reviews on here had me a little torn but all of the negative reviews here are very accurate. When I discovered I was pregnant he automatically went to the abortion options. When I told him I thought he was an OB and could proceed with delivering, his response after a long sigh was "Oh yeah I guess I could do that too". That was then followed by him saying that I needed to think about it because nothing was guaranteed. I've never experienced anything like this. If you're a patient of his, you need to talk to him and let him know this is NOT the way he's going to keep people coming back.
I'm first time pregnant and I had so many questions about it and the doctor rush me out the office . I'm not satisfied
It was quick. I definitely felt safe and look forward to keeping him as my doctor.
Very nice Doctor, good bedside manner. Courteous staff. Very clean environment.
love this doctor!
Please experience--excellent physician--I felt very comfortable and was seen right away!
One word, great!!!!
This is one of the best doctors, he is very friendly and even the girls at the front desk are amazing!
I honestly only needed a prescription and since my regular GYN was unavailable I just decided to get it from him. He tried to do more than I asked since he thought I would be his patient from now on and when I let him know that I just popped in he didn't like the fact that I wasn't coming back.. & I didn't like the attitude. He definitely judged me for being the age I am and having a child which is none of his business. I went early thinking id get through, they go by actual appointment time. But I would never go back to him again.. When he found out he was just a substitute doctor.. Instant attitude.
He was great about listening to my past history, and making new recommendatios!
Dr frenkel was wonderful and made me feel at ease throughout the process. I highly recommend him
Very nice, welcoming office.
I was really happy with the advice he gave me coz he knows my problem. the staff could use a little bit "people person" training. They are stiff as a board but not rude. Maybe due to the fact of language barrier or I'm too slang for them.....LOL. Overall the office is clean and very immaculate and the Dr. Rubin's the best!!!!
I think he was great. They made me feel so comfortable. He answered every question I had for him.
I was comfortable with speaking with him an my examination
great ethic and attention to details
I was nervous with this being my first male GYN, but Dr. Frenkel was the epitome of professional. Everything went smoothly and he assisted me with all my inquiries. I have made the choice to use him as my primary GYN.
My visit to Dr. Frenkel's office made me realize that there are only a few things in life worse than a bad OBGNY checkup. My office visit lasted only about 5 minutes. Dr. Frankel walked out the room before I finished my question. I experienced a lot of pain during the checkup and was bleeding afterwards. The nurse told me it's "normal" to bleed after a check up. I had to tell her I had a lot of checkups in my life but this never happened. I asked if they could send me a report to let me know the result. She told me they never send out anything, not even an one-page letter, because they've "thousands of patients." If you want a careless doctor, being talked back, experience a lot of pain or bleed, you won't be disappointed at this office.
Dr. Frenkel was quick but thorough. Very polite and nice, staff was nice and knowledgable
Dr Frenkel's office is clean and comfortable. This was my initial visit and after completing all the paper work my wait time was less than 10 minutes. Dr Frenkel had an excellent bedside manner, he was friendly, thorough and quick. Though I had no complaints or history of any problems a transvaginal ultrasound was performed. This was the first time I had a transvaginal ultrasound as part of a routine GYN exam. It was unusual but otherwise was not a problem for me. Dr Frenkel answered all my questions and overall I was satisfied with the visit. Please be aware though that they only accept cash or check as payment for your co-pay. No debit or credit cards accepted...this was an inconvenience but I will still return in the future and recommend Dr. Frenkel.
My visit was great. i waited for about 10-15 mins to be seen. Dr. Frenkel was patient and thorough with his examination.
My visit was fast... And I got everything done at one time!!!
Perfect
Very routine. Quick.
The secretary was really nice, quick paperwork. One other person in the office it was 10:30 on a saturday and I was taken so quick! The nurse was ok, heavy russian accent so it was hard for me to understand her. Dr.Frenkel was very nice, direct and to the point, thorough in his exam and questions/advice. The woman who did my sonogram was also very nice, consult with doctor went well also. Overall a great experience, def should go here!!
Doctor R. frenkel was great !
He is wery nice dr
hi my name is aminata diallo. i had an appointment with doctor frenkel today. a very clean office, soft music and the doctor was so easy going, fast, and proffessional. i will recommend this man to everyone i know. thnks zocdoc, thanks doctor frankel.
He was too the point and didn't waste my time with exams that weren't necessary. He dealt with the issue at hand in a efficient and thorough manner. I felt very comfortable in his care. The staff were really kind and helpful with making sure I knew what to expect in terms of follow-up
I thought he gave good eye contact, tactful and attentive. Great visit!
He couldn't solve my problem but neither could any other physician...so don't feel bad...
This is my 3rd visit to this doctor. My first 2 visits were fine. It was just the initial check-up with questions I had that were answered by him. I DO agree with others on my first two visits that he is VERY quick and kind of rushes out the office intending for you to follow. Anyway... my last visit was the worst. He was about 40 min late, and getting my follow up for the first two visits he told me what the issue was and then was told google it. REALLY??? when he walked out the room he told me to make another appointment and when I went to the front desk, I tried to ask more questions because he obviously didn't fill me in. He then STATED THE CONDITION OUTLOUD (with another patient in the waiting area) which made me very uncomfortable then said, 'just research it online, it's ok'. Haaaaaaa..... I mean. Just horrible. :(
Good doctor and very nice staff! If anything, my two complaints are that I waited nearly an hour for a 10 minute checkup and was not informed in advance that I would need to pay by cash or check.
He was completely thoughtless and inconsiderate and behaved as if he's been in this field far too long. I would never let him near my vagina again. He didn't fully examine me but made a decision based on my narrative. He left the door open when he examined me without stating his intention to do so and then when he invited someone into the room when I requested a closed door (as he should), the person came in in the middle of the examination, exposing me again. He was cold and rude. Never!
Very professional and knowledgeable, and at the same time down to earth. We had some pretty funny (to me) but real conversations....makes me feel extremely comfortable when I can talk to my gynecologist about uncomfortable but necessary issues. He got right to the point and asked all the right questions. This will probably be my gyno for the next 15 yrs!!!
Doctor was very attentive. The appointment was quick.Will recommended to anybody
Very efficient Dr. and pleasant
Very profesional
He rushes through every appointment and isn't gentle at all. I can't imagine going through another appointment with him.
Best gyn
The doctor was very kind and answered all my questions.
Answered the phone while I was in the middle of talking to him discussing my issue, left exam room door open, and simpy said "I don't know" had absolutely no advice and ordered no tests etc horrible uninformed doctor!
The reviews were correct he races through your appt, however he seems nice
He was very thorough, but very hasty. Barely allowed time to ask questions, even when over the phone. I had to call back, because during the first call, he failed to give me all my results.
This is my first time visiting this doctor and I'll definitely stick with him in the future. Professional and thorough.
Dr. Frenkel is very knowledgeable and personable. Aside from the not-very quick wait time, it was a decent visit.
He was great! Very professional, I loved being there, felt very comfortable, after seeing him I will stay with Dr. Rubin for future check ups and concerns.
Great.. Looking forward to my next appointment in 2 weeks and then every so often for the next 8 months :o)
Stuff is unprofessional and lacks common sense, office is in serious need of cleaning and technology update, doctor has no interest in patients or providing them with any information.
The office was very clean and nice.The doctor was very nice as well but i wish he could spend a little bit more time with the patient
He was great. Very friendly and courteous and encouraging. He gave me options and a plan of action. I was agonising about finding a ob-gyn since I moved to NYC two months ago. And i'm very glad I found Dr Rubin.
I woke up with a strange pain knowing I am pregnant, and looked right away on ZocDoc to find a OB who took my insurance, and was also great. Well It was a great visit. I was seen within 10 minutes, He was courteous, answered all of my questions, and also did a transvaginal sonogram. I couldn't be more pleased! I will continue to see him! THANK YOU ZOCDOC for this wonderful service as well as this wonderful doctor!
The doctor was very professional, quick, and nice. I came in for a uti and came out with meds to treat it. Office staff was also very nice and professional.
I did not have a good visit at this doctor office.I scheduled an appointment days in advance.When i got there the doctor wasn't there.When he finally arrived which was an hour later. No apologies or anything.I felt very rushed and to me he was rude,curt,and rash.I will say his medical assistant was nice.Long story short i will not be returning.
The office was nice the staff was very nice. The doctor was a bit fast. I didn't get much out of him but that he doesn't take my insurance to care for me and my pregnancy. I guess after he noticed my insurance he wasn't very much interested in continuing the visit. I wasn't aware he didn't take my insurance for the pregnancy. When I booked the appointment I entered my insurance and reason for appointment and his name popped up. Being that I missed half a day of work just to hear that he didn't take my insurance was a waste of my time. Ask before you make an appointment. So you won't waste ur time.
he is not very gentle, left feeling like someone took my insides out and bled for multiple days
GOOD DOCTOR BUT DOES HIS JOB TO FAST DIDNT EVEN HAVE TIME TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH ME .
I saw Dr.Frenkel for a few months into my pregnancy till thankfully I switched doctors. His staff spelled my name wrong on many occasions. He also made me very uncomfortable about my 1st pregnancy. He gave me wrong info on a shot I needed ( I'm rh neg ) i never recived it and then still charged my insurance for it . Also his sonogram technician was rude and talked on her cell while performing my gender check sonogram. Please save your self and go somewhere else!
Dr. Frankel was personable and professional. He was thorough and worked efficiently. Would definitely recommend.
It really well and his staff is great
Unsatisfactory. The appointment was very fast, the doctor was rash. I could not ask even a question. He refused to explain anything to me just was trying to push me doing some evaluating procedures in his different office.
Dr. Frenkel makes his patients very comfortable.
Overall the visit went well I have no complaints. He did an in debt physical on me and I didn't have to wait as long as I thought I would and the staff was very nice to me. I'd recommend him.
The doctor himself was nice! But the appt was very rushed. He did ask questions and explained well.
I couldnt of asked for a better doctor... answered every question I had to ask and very respectful and well mannered..
Very nice upscale place. I waited no more than 10 minutes. The staff is great.
Doctor Frenkel is an excellent , he is really nice and treated me very well.
I was amazed to get such a treatment from an office that accepts medicate patients. The office was super clean and sterile. I loved the nurse and her way of treating she was very efficient. Dr Frenkel really surprised me, I loved the way he spoke,explained,and made sure I understand everything he said . Moreover, I been changing my GYNs Dr like sucks I hated every GYN I went to, they never spoke or explain anything to me. However Dr.Frenkel answered all my questions and was super nice and gentle(forget about the fact that he is handsome lol ). I think that every patient is looking for a Dr that takes his time and talks to his patient s. As professionalism you really can see that Dr. Frenkel really know what he is doing , I felt confident and calm in his hands . I would like to thank Dr Frenkel and his stuff for giving such a VIP treatment to every patient. Last thing I would like to mention, NO ONE PAYED ME TO WRITE THIS! ? I HOPE U ENJOY YOUR VISIT .
Definitely a friendly, talkative guy. Unlike other reviewers, I waited for about 35 min. He was thorough and informative enough. However the nurse/assistant was ditzy.
He is very concerned about his patients. The environment its very welcoming too.
My appointment was at 7 and I was leaving the office by 7:30! He was super nice and professional. FYI: he takes cash only for the copay. This is temporary, though... I think.
Very friendly and informative.
The greatest OB/GYN that i've ever been to. He was very friendly professional and had a wealth of knowledge. Not to mention the office was amazing, clean and in a great neighborhood. I HIGHLY recommend!
Dr.Frenkel was very nice. I'm have a slight fear of doctors but his bedside manner left me feeling safe and at ease. He was very informative and was willing to answer any questions. His office was beautiful and the nurse at the front desk was very polite. I would recommend him to every woman i know.
Dr. Frenkel was great! There really was no wait, in fact when I got there it seemed like he was waiting for me, that was sweet considering I've wasted so much time waiting for other doctors. His exam was extremely thorough and I felt very comfortable so yes, I would recommend this doctor!
Perfect appointment. Excellent Doctor. Competent, personable, on time. Highly recommend.
EXTREMELY FRIENDLY DOCTOR
Dr. Frenkel gave me a thorough annual exam, he did a sonogram and checked to make sure I didn't have any cysts. He was a little rough with the camera which was uncomfortable but other then that it was good. I will definitely be going back next year.
