The doctor lacked empathy, was somewhat dismissive as I was telling him what was going on and wasn’t informative at all. All this happened in less than 5 minutes. Very upsetting, I definitely will not be returning to this doctor.

February 23, 2018Rebecca F.Verified patient
Dr Lefkof is highly professional. He doesn't spend time on speculation or conjecture. Just the facts. He's aggressive in getting those facts, which is good if you're a patient. He treated me for a gastro ailment over the course of 9 months. When it got serious, he was calling me personally from his cell phone on a Sunday to check up on me. I will never forget that. Dr. Lefkof is not necessarily known for being chummy, but in the moment of truth, he's as responsive and caring as any doctor I've ever worked with. If you want scientific, to the point, aggressively seeking information, Dr Lefkof is for you. If you want a new friend and to spend an hour chatting, this is not the clinic or doctor for you. I highly recommend Dr Lefkof.
November 14, 2017Carlos P.Verified patient
He was OK. He was very impolite, no bedside manner what so ever. Extremely dry. Just told me what I needed, and left the room right away. Staff was friendly though, pretty much only plus.

Dr. Lefkof was very professional and knowledgeable putting us at ease from the moment he walked in the room. I highly recommend him.
September 16, 2016Robert A.Verified patient
Great communicator and very helpful.
July 28, 2016Susan E.Verified patient
Office only accepts cash, doesn't know how to use Zocdoc website, and doesn't have an office email address. Rude office staff. Very outdated office, embarrassment to the hospital they are associated with.
More than 1 year agoAmanda J.Verified patient
DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR! They made me pay for my visit then billed my insurance full price! I wondered why they only accept cash or check, now I know. They are obviously scamming insurance companies. I have reported them already.
