I booked a 3pm appointment the night before. Confirmed through ZocDoc & then when I arrived the building space looked like it had been vacant for at least a year, the door was locked, I tried ringing the doorbell multiple times & nothing happened. I also left a voicemail 10min prior to my appointment as I arrived early as a new patient & have yet to hear anything back (it is now 8pm). I’ll just find another doctor. Complete waste of my time.
Dr Arnowitz is great! Amazing doctor and would definitely recommend just have a tough skin with the woman who answers the phones she isn't very pleasant but the doctors worth it!

I brought my 4 year old in for an ingrown toe nail. The staff called me that morning to offer an earlier appointment which I was happy for. The doctor was gentle, and knowledgeable of the small procedure and my child didn't even cry. I will be going back and/or referring my family to this practice.
