The office staff was very nice. They greeted me right away, the check in process was easy and seemless. Dr Lefkowitz was very personable, and listened to everything I had to say about the issue I was dealing with. He saw I was nervous and quickly calmed me down.

Professional and insightful
September 20, 2017Robert A.Verified patient
Very attentive. He let me speak (and vent). He was very thorough and professional. He did not rush off to the next patient within a set amount of time like many other doctors. He spent as much time as I needed.

Very friendly and courteous staff
More than 1 year agoAsh S.Verified patient
The Doctor is great but you do end up filling out redundant forms even with zodoc. It's on this tablet thing and only takes a few minutes not that inconvenient. What is inconvenient is The wait, I didn't see the doctor until and hour after my appointment. But once inside the doctor was A+++ Very nice Doc and Staff. listened to the concerns and gave good advice.
