so lovely all around. communications with the office and the doctor is very tricky, as he is only there sometimes I guess and doesn't have a secretary? besides that, it was great. I guess I just have to use the zocdoc interface...

March 23, 2021Louise S.Verified patient
Dr. Lee was fine, its the site that was the problem.
I was disappointed that Mt.Sinai did not have the facilities on site needed for my procedure and as I result I have to travel into the main campus for my treatment. Basically the visit was a waste time.
Please let Mt. Sinai know that their rivals in Westchester had such facilities in Westchester.
