This was my third appointment with the doctor. I would probably return if it wasn't for his staff. They have screwed up my prescriptions every time I have been there! I have been waiting for two days for them to call it in and still nothing! The communication between staff members is terrible! Trying to get answers or help is very difficult.

Nice and knowledgeable.
Dr. Block was amazing as always. The only thing that I don't like about that office is they don't respect the patient when he or she calls to schedule an appointment. I have been trying to schedule that appointment for more than 15 days and they always put me on hold,until I scheduled it by myself online. I hope they care more about the patients especially the girls who are there they don't act in professional way with us as patients.
Dr. Block is wonderful -- takes his time, treats patient and caregiver with respect, pleasant, relaxed and a pleasure to visit -- his staff is very professional and kind -- my mother was a patient of Dr. Block several years ago and loved him as well -- his bedside manner is great -- dispels all the negative things said about New Yorkers!

Took time to understand my needs.
Dr. Block rocks! He is very personable and and speaks in laymen terms so you understand what is going on with test results etc. He also has a beautiful smile. :)
I was very impressed. He is personal as well as very professional. I left feeling very comforted and have a plan so I will know what needs to be done for my problem.
Excellent, honest & caring Doctor.
