The Dr. was kind and helpful, he offered five differant options and gave me paperwork to aid in my decision. After the cortizone shot I began to feel much better. I expect to be dealing with Dr. Weiner for quite a while.

Honestly disappointing as far as what I was needing assistance with. But that's what I needed was an honest opinion & an outline of the options as I move forward .

Very professional. Explained his diagnosis thoroughly. He even gave me treatment for my issue on the first appointment and didn't just use it as a "consultation" like other doctors.

Excellent
January 19, 2016Robert S.Verified patient
DR Weiner was very informative, professional, and never hurried his exam. He took his time and explained my MRI findings and gave me a very good understanding of the anatomy of my shoulder. He made his professional recommendations which I found to be conservation and to the point. We would highly recommended him without any reservation.
January 14, 2016Mary S.Verified patient
I saw Dr Weiner to determine the cause of shoulder joint pain and determine my options. He was very thorough in making sure that I understood the situation and the options.

A very nice experience
August 25, 2015Roseann O.Verified patient
I was disappointed based on the previous reviews.
I was asked to come 30 minutes before the appointment, which is fine, to get X-rays, but then I had to wait for 40 mins. Why is it that doctors time is always more important than their patients. I understand they get busy but they could plan better.

Knowledgeable, no nonsense doctor. I liked him.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Weiner was very pleasant but to the point......no chitchat at all. Just the basic questions and answers. I was sent downstairs for x-rays right after filling in all my paperwork so that was a plus as it was done in an extremely timely fashion. I waited a bit for the doctor but when I saw him the appointment was very quick. He gave me a couple of diagnoses on what my problem could be and the treatment and then a referral for another specialist for another problem I had. An MRI is to be scheduled to confirm which diagnosis is correct and so will see the doctor again after that.

Although the wait was long the staff kept us informed some times emergencies just happen . Once I saw the doctor, he was excellent. I would gladly wait again.

Great visit, really helped me out.
April 3, 2015Steve E.Verified patient
When A doctor is running late to an appointment, I feel he is obligated to explain why. Also, he needs to let one know if this is a pattern of behavior. I could have called in to see if he was running late and arrived accordingly. Dr.'s need to recognize that patients have a life too.
An occasional long waiti is not a problem. Habitual habit by a Dr. is. I asked if this was a pattern and the response was " you may need to wait again". I never did get a direct answer. So I do not know if this is a behavior pattern.

The doctor is friendly, thorough, and takes time to answer patients' questions. The nurse and office staff are kind and professional. I enjoyed my visit and recommend this doctor. The wait time to be seen was lengthy, but I am patient and this did not bother me. For the impatient or those pressed for time, I suggest scheduling your appointment for first thing in the morning.

Even though the wait was a little longer than I would like, every person there was incredibly friendly. Most importantly they explained why my wait was longer than usual, and we're very apoplectic. I appreciated them explaining, I hate just waiting not knowing why I'm waiting longer. Dr. Weiner was very friendly and informative! Definitely recommend to friends and family. Good team there!
October 30, 2014Matthew D.Verified patient
Dr. Weiner was very informative. I did feel once I saw him he did take time with me....didn't rush. I was early for the appt but did seem to wait in the reception room almost 30 mins after my appt time.
I will certainly be using him as my specialist for this area.

each visit got better / after surgery he showed compassion / took time to listen ... very patient with his patient {me } LOL thank you Dr. Weiner ...
More than 1 year agoValerie V.Verified patient
I am a retired registered nurse and I always interview my providers before hiring them. Dr. Weiner impressed me with his ability to include me in any decisions. He did not automatically pick surgery as a solution, but offered other alternatives as options before jumping into surgery.
August 25, 2013Bernet B.Verified patient
He was professional, competent, and very nice.
December 9, 2013Mattie L.Verified patient
Having had considerable experience with Dr. Weiner involving two surgeries with a third forthcoming, I cannot recommend him highly enough. I am thoroughly confident with his level of skill and appreciate his professional yet caring manner.....a totally satisfying experience.
November 7, 2013Patrick C.Verified patient
The front staff, Stacey and one other, were both friendly and helpful. Dr. Weiner listened to my concerns and offered a solution based on my feedback. He is very easy talk with, professional and I would highly recommend him. A+
May 2, 2013Philip F.Verified patient
The long wait was because I needed an Xray. The staff set everything up and all I had to do was walk downstairs and have it done. The information was sent right away to Dr Weiner a few minutes later. We discussed the Xray results and have a game plan. Great bedside manner and he has an excellent staff.
I'm glad that I found ZocDoc & Dr Weiner. Thanks! :0)

Gave me the time I needed for my appointment. Explained my problem in detail so I understood, gave me a treatment plan to get better and a follow up time if something was not helping. Answered all my questions and some I did not think of. A very thorough visit. I was greatly satisfied and recommend him to all.

The staff was wonderful. Very friendly which is so important. Dr. Weiner was informed of my case by being prepared to seeing me. You can tell he really cares about his patients. Makes you feel like a real person.
December 13, 2011KR
Considering it was my first visit and I had to get an X-ray, it seemed that I was there for a long time and Dr. Weiner was a bit hurried. He did, however, answer all of my quetions and explained everything about my knee problem. I realize that he is only one person and I do like his philosophy of being one on one with the patient and that is a big plus. He has an explanation about this type of care as you check in. Now I know the drill and I am fine with it.

I thought Dr. Gary Wiener was very professional and directed me to the correct doctor that I really needed to see for my condition and getting to the root of my problem instead of wasting my time and energy. He was honest,geniune, compassionate and truthful about my condition and very fast and helpful too.

Perfection
December 19, 2011PC
His bedside manner and respect for patients is phenomenal and unexpected. He is knowledgeable, of course. Dr. Weiner didn't rush to surgery as a solution but explained the steps that my prognosis might take. He focused on less intensive measures.
