Dr. Lubow's office is a little dated and doesn't rely on modern technology, which I didn't mind since that's what I grew up with. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and makes you feel comfortable. He thoroughly explained my illness to give me a better understanding and offered different treatment options; which he fully supported my decisions. I would personally recommend him to all my friends and family!

This is a late review, almost a year later, but it's because I'm still struggling to discover what's plaguing me, regardless of Dr. Lubow's consultation, and had to get back on ZocDoc to find a new doctor to help me.
I went in and had to wait a very long time to be seen, as well as fill out a ridiculous amount of forms! It was also the end of the day, and I felt like everyone was annoyed that I came in so late. Once I finally got to speak with Dr. Lubow, I felt like he wasn't really listening to me and really just wanted to leave ASAP. After a discussion about a previous doctor I had seen, and what that doctor had prescribed me, Dr. Lubow ended up prescribing me the same thing - that I already knew didn't work for me. When I pointed this out, he basically said "Meh, try it again". Overall, I felt that, as a new patient, no one in the office cared about my needs.
I arrived to his office in a fine mood, and quickly became a bit annoyed by how I was being treated, and left so annoyed and frustrated that I ended up crying in the car because I felt like I had wasted my time on someone who didn't care at all about actually healing me.

Went for a stomach consultation, four months later I finally got a referral confirmed at a gastro. Relatively un-personal but nonetheless did what I came for.

He was very kind and thorough...because the round of antibiotics prescribed by urgent care was very short, he went ahead and wrote me another scrip just in case my symptoms were to return.

Dr. Lubow seems to be an open minded and caring doctor. He has a compassionate demeanor and a great sense of humor.
Very luck to have found his office and will be a patient for as long as I can.
More than 1 year agoMatthew B.Verified patient
Was not impressed! I'm a RN. I felt his answers to certain questions were... Noncommittal. He answered one medical question with, "I don't know." And shrugged his shoulders. I also prefer to meet my physician before I'm ask to "Put on a gown." I will not return! PS-He opted out of Medicare.

It's definitely a throw back to the old neighborhood doc which I was a bit unsure of, but overall my needs were met and problems addressed.

I recently recieved a letter saying he will no longer see me with absolutely no explanation, he overlooks symptoms and prescribe things he wouldnt use himself.

He was very informative about my ailment. He gave me more information than I have been able to get from anybody else. And he gave me a plan which is important to me.

Several issues with my first, and what will be my only visit to this office.
The office is incredibly dated and has very, very thin walls. I could clearly hear the patient's discussion next door, as well as the doctor saying to one of his staff "Do you want to see me lose my temper?" And they weren't "joking" around.
The doctor made several references to how the state tracks painkiller prescriptions, and that it apparently raised his radar that a patient came in on a Friday needing pain medication. 1) What does the day matter? 2) This "discussion" was very passive aggressive and made me very uncomfortable. I don't appreciate being questioned, nor the tone with which it was conducted. My condition spoke for itself. I don't need to hear, nor do I care about his apparent run ins with drug addicts.
The doctor was snarky, passive aggressive, rude, and had a hard time looking me in the eye. Maybe he has to be concerned with drug addicts looking to score because no other patients will put up with him. I won't be back.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Rude and dismissive. I have been having chronic pain for over 2 years without any help and was told to look into a DO for alternative therapies; (ie: massage, acupuncture, reiki, saline injections, etc) and instead he made me cry and feel stupid for asking about those things. Then he charged me a VERY hefty fee on top of what my insurance covered!!! And I have a wonderful insurance plan...I will NEVER go back to Dr. Lubow again and would not recommend him to anyone looking for professional, real healthcare.

He fixed my back! One adjustment and I loosened right up. I'll probably go back in a week for another adjustment, but it's *so* much better already!

Dr. Lubow was very engaged in what I had to say about my symptoms and had really professional, non-biased feedback on my options and gave me the knowledge to make my own decision (no matter which I choose). I'll be back to see him for any other symptoms, should they arise :)

Dr. was very professional, and personable. Office was very clean and nice. Office staff was very friendly and helpful. I was able to schedule an appointment within one day which was super helpful. Let's all be honest; when we get sick, we don't want to wait 6 days to see the Dr. and get an antibiotic.
More than 1 year agoAnnette N.Verified patient
Dr. Lubow is great! He and his staff are always efficient, friendly and very knowledgable. I've been a patient there for awhile now and I've never been disappointed. Great clinic.
October 1, 2013Samantha S.Verified patient
Overall the visit was what I expected. He seems like a caring Dr. and the staff was all friendly and efficient. The office is pretty dated. While it seemed clean and organized and I'm sure everything is fine, when it comes to Dr.'s having things be a bit more updated would make me feel more comfortable. But I'll be back mostly because of Dr. Lubow and the staff. Good experience overall.
