“Long wait. People at front desk were nice. Doctor was awkward and came in to introduce herself and ask the same questions that the nurse did. Was pretty pointless for the doctor to come by at all. ”

“I had a very busy week and couldn't make it to the doctor. By the time I could make it in for a visit I was miserable.
Who likes doctor visits? Nobody.. correct? Well everything I normally hate did NOT happen here....
1. No wait. Absolutely NO WAIT!!!!
2. Friendly nurse. She didn't make me feel bad about looking up info or uncomfortable explaining my symptoms.
3. Nurse answered my questions without doing the double talk. You know, "wellll let's wait for the doctor...". 4. Doctor Leo was fast, kind, efficient. Love him. He wasn't rushing me out the door, I still felt like I had his attention and was special.
5. I was in and out in 30 minutes. Picked up my prescription and was home in an hour.
I hope I don't get sick or need to go back but if I am I will be back. Seriously. My day was made.
One more thing....clean. It was clean and there was tv in your examination room. Not that you would have time to really watch tv. BECAUSE THEY ARE FAST!”

This is an Urgent Care office so don't go there expecting the Doctor of your choice. It's who ever is there that day.

A waste of time. The doctor seemed to busy to properly diagnose me or give me the time to explain my issues. All in all he saw me for less than5 minutes and walked out the door.

Dr Lencina was great! The office was quick and efficient. Took me only a few min to get registered and called back. The staff was very polite and I appreciated how much they seemed to care. I will be back later this year as I almost always get the flu. That's what happens when you work with kids!

It's my first time going to a doctor in New Jersey and I had an awful experience. I went on zocdoc and tried to book 3 different appts only to find out this doctor could only see me for one. He said he would refer me to another doctor but never gave me a list or information for the doctors he was recommending. I saw his MA more than I saw him and she did most of the questioning and took notes. The only thing they could of helped me with was my allergy test and it's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back from them. I would never go back to this clinic and I would not refer this doctor to anyone. I didn't even see the doctor after they drew my blood and being that I was a new patient he could of came to ad least tell me what happens next. The place was empty so I am sure he was not busy. I will stick to my NY doctors office where they take time for their patients and actually get back to me. I'm sure it doesn't take 3 weeks to get back blood results.

I came in to Doctors Express on a Saturday evening not knowing what to expect. Medical staff at front desk was very friendly and quickly checked me in with minimal wait. I was seen by Dr. Lencina who quickly made me comfortable. He examined me, explained the issue and took the time to go over the plan and medications I was going to be taking. Although it was my first time meeting this Doctor I would defintely come see him again and already recommended him to all my friends .Thank you Doctors Express.

Amazing office. I was seen by Dr. Lencina and he was very professional in diagnosing me. He assured me everything was going to be fine and really listened to my needs. Very clean place and excellent fast pace service. I will def be returning here rather than an ER. Thanks Doc!
