Dr. Leipzig is a perfect combination of informative, direct and not too casual yet simultaneously not too formal, puts me at ease, is easy to approach and is great at translating medical jargon and situations to the average person.

I really like Dr. Leipzig - she was extremely thorough and personable. The staff was very courteous as well. The biggest drawback was the wait time, unfortunately. Perhaps it was just an extraordinarily busy day? My appointment for my annual was scheduled for 10:30 am, but I didn't leave until 1:20 pm.

Dr Leipzig delivered my twin boys last year, and she asked after them, wanted to see their pictures and also is very thorough about my overall health both physically and emotionally. I feel so lucky to have found such an amazing OB/Gyn after many, many others.

I absolutly love Dr. Leipzig - she is so present when talking with patients, but I always expect a VERY long wait when going to her office. I suppose that's the cost of receiving personalized care?

This was my first visit to an OBGYN and I definitely made the right choice. I read all the reviews on here before choosing a doctor and all the comments were spot on. Based on someone's review I made the earliest possible appointment and still had to wait an hour. But it was worth the wait, Dr. Leipzig made me feel very comfortable, explained everything and took the time to sit down to talk with me. If you are looking for a great OBGYN in the NYC area she is definitely worth a visit.

I was so pleased with my visit. I found Dr. Leipzig to be caring and thorough. She asked a lot questions, explained what she was doing and why and gave me worthwhile suggestions. Dr. Leipzig spent a great deal of relaxed time with me. I waited a minimal amount of time to see her once I got to her office. The support staff was very pleasant, too.

Dr. Leipzig is always so patient and thorough. She makes it a point to ask about my general health and well-being, not just the specific thing ailing me at the moment. I appreciate the fact that she takes the time to think about how the little things could be affecting me and my body in a larger way. I always feel like I'm having a conversation with her about my health and not as though she's talking at me like many doctors do.

Really nice pleasant doctor. The wait time was ridiculous. There was no one in the waiting room and i had to wait for 50minutes. Then i had to wait for another 15 minutes in the examination room. Popped away from work for what I thought would be 1 hour and spent 2 hours away in total!!! I would reccommend the doctor though.

Dr. Leipzig has been my gynecologist for 20 years or so, since she started working in this office. She stands out above every other physician that I have dealt with not only in compassion and competence in her field, but also in her willingness to go beyond what is required. When I had a situation that required specialized treatment, she went out of her way to ensure that I received the best possible care to resolve the problem. She listens, asks questions and gives advice that truly helps me to live a healthier life. Dr. Leipzig is a top-notch physician and I am sincerely grateful for the care that she has given me over the years.

I almost walked out of this appointment because I was in the waiting room for almost two hours. I had NEVER been so frustrated at a doctor's office in my life. Gynos have notoriously long wait times but this was ridiculous. About 2 seconds before I walked out, Dr. Leipzig came to see me, and when she saw how frustrated I was, she immediately took me in. Before we began the exam, she asked me a bunch of questions which I guess they do with all new patients, but some of the questions were strange and unnecessary. During the exam, I was very comfortable and she was very efficient. I would absolutely recommend her services, but the wait time is very inconvenient unless you have 3 hours to kill.
