I did not need to wait very long but the receptionist did tell me that I probably would wait a long time oh, I wonder if I just got lucky. Dr. Lippoff was very polite and responsive to any questions or concerns that I had.

Overall, besides the long initial wait, l would say for a first visit it went well. I was surprisingly satisfied with the whole experience.

Seemed more concerned about getting me a blood test then actually giving me what i needed -- a referral. I didn't need a whole bunch of appointments just to get a referral.

Verified patient
i liked dr. lippoff but i did not care for the office or the receptionists. the receptionists was not warm and felt like she did not want your service. the office is very old and dated. i made the office with zocdoc but when i got there, the receptionist had no idea regarding my appointment. i even showed her the confirmation emails i received. she said she was able to fit in me 15 mins later than scheduled. that was fine but seems like other people had issues scheduling appointments through zocdoc with this office before as well.
Excellent
Verified patient
Loved the dr. Scheduled appt for 945 through zocdoc. When I called to confirm they told me it was at 9. I got there for 9. Wasn't seen until 1015
The office was quite clean and enviornment was condusive to his medical practice. He had paitence to listen, took sufficent notes and recomended me the best treatment.
Verified patient
The staff was friendly and very helpful, and I was satisfied with my first experience as Dr. Lippoff's patient and was most fond of the prompt but thorough visit(s) made.

Verified patient
Dr. Lippoff Is a Joke to the Medical Feild. He is extremely insensitive. He was my doctor for a few months and I couldnt belive he was an MD he's so stupid. He didnt seem like he had a clue of what he was doing. When I found a better Doctor in Bay Ridge and told him of my experience there he was just as shocked as I was about his "skills". Don't waste your time!
Verified patient
He was knowledgeable and right to the point. Upon leaving I felt comfortable that he had neither over- or under-prescribed. I will go back.
Verified patient
It was Good
What a nice doctor and especially that he is available for patients on a Sunday! All of the office staff was lovely. I would go back if I was sick again!
Verified patient
Eh. Not a bad doctor by any means. Just kind of typical in his mannerisms, expressions and personality. He was thorough and helpful however, and at the end of the day, I was able to accomplish exactly what I needed to, so I have no real complaints, just not really impressed either.
Dr. Lippoff was kind and thorough in his evaluation. I left his office with a feeling of relief, like I had been properly cared for and that the problem had been addressed and resolved. The staff there was also kind and efficient in their duties. This was one of the better doctor's experiences I have had and I'm glad I was able to see Dr. Lippoff. (And on a Saturday! Huge plus).
