“I feel so fortunate to have found Dr. Weissman. There are so many good things to say about my experience at my first appointment. He is a good listener, very knowledgeable, very personable, explains things clearly and makes you feel that you are in good hands. He's a number 10.

“Dr. Weisman was great, very communicative and good vibes and knowledgeable. But not sure if I'd go back because of the immense wait time. Maybe it was an off day, not sure if this is the norm or not but I waited over an hour before being seen by the doctor. And didn't have time to get my bloodwork done because the lab was packed and I had to leave. ”

I have been trying to follow up with the Dr for months. I can’t get through and they can’t seem to get my portal working. Every time I call nobody can tell me anything and eventually they just hang up. what’s the point of going to get a diagnosis or check up if they can’t follow up or help you? Especially when the patient is in crisis. This is highly unethical and frustrating.

I had a virtual visit with Dr. Weissman and it was great! I felt very heard and he was able to talk to me about my concerns and medical history in a very clear and non-judgemental manner. It was honestly a much more productive visit than I thought it would be. I will definitely continue to visit him going forward for my primary care needs.

Was pretty thorough. He was pretty efficient in doing my physical and going over any other tests I needed to do. Helped go through vaccinations I needed for my trip to India as well.
November 30, 2019Paul D.Verified patient
I am very picky with doctors and only select the top of the top. I waited around 2 months to get an appointment with him, but I will recommend him to everyone. He spent 45 minutes with me to discuss my family history and all of my small medical concerns ranging from a scab in my head to sometimes feeling dizzy. He also had a good sense of humor and is very responsive through the app in fact I messaged him on a Sunday once and he responded even though he doesnt work on Sundays. On top of this all he had a great nurse who was so gentle and helped me get over my fear of needles. Her name is Irma. I would give him an A+
