No issues with time to be seen, the office is very flexible with appointment changes and whatnot. Dr. Gottlieb is great, I just wish we could have done my physical and whanot in one visit.

All of the staff I saw there were very pleasant, and one even went out of her way to help me understand what my insurance would and wouldn't cover, which may have saved me a lot of money! Dr. Gottlieb was very pleasant and engaging and I appreciated his thoughtfulness about my issues.

Dr. Gottlieb is definitely up on his technology - I love the fact that he dictates his notes into the computer right while you're in the room! He also listens to your issues, and isn't afraid to refer you to a specialist when things are out of his expertise areas (internal medicine and cardiology).
More than 1 year agoVictoria C.Verified patient
He is an interesting doctor but I had a few issues. He seemed very concerned about how he would make referrals when needed because I prefer to stay within the Partner's realm (I sought out Dr Gottlieb to have a local resource for antibiotics incase for a cold or infection and for annual blood work). Discovering that he didn't have access to my Partner's records meant that he couldn't see my full history with all my specialists. The second issue was that I was complaining about a stuffy ear and dizziness and he took the palms of both hands, placed them along my face and very abruptly and sharply turned my head to the right. It shocked me - there was no warning he would move my head and I do have neck issues that could have been severely compromised. I didn't think this was professional. On the positive side, I did learn that there are two forms of a drug I am taking and that I ned to know which one is in my medicine chest.

The office staff, the nurses and Dr. G are all very friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain things and just chat on a personal level about things other than medical stuff! Very personable. Very nice people.

Dr. Gottlieb was very thorough and obviously, extremely knowledgable. Great ability to listen, convey thoughts and communicate.
July 9, 2015Christopher B.Verified patient
Dr. Gottlieb was great. Went over all my concerns. Explained in detail the course of action we are going to take for my treatment. very thorough. and a great friendly staff. think i found a permanent primary care physician!
May 19, 2015John N.Verified patient
I went for physical checkup, the doctor even didn't order blood test for me, he spent 1/3 of time dealing with blue tooth connection with his laptop. I didn't feel he can give me any helpful suggestion about my health. I feel I waste my money on durance to get such service.i will not go to this doctor again.

To my pleasant surprise, I met Dr. Gotlieb and his knowledge, thoroughness, and explanation of possible causes was A+. I'm grateful for having found him using ZoxDoc and I'm grateful to finally have a Dr. if and when I need one.
October 31, 2014Eric S.Verified patient
I was quite pleased with the mannerisms & the professionalism of everyone I encountered in the office. From the gentleman who registered me, to the medical assistant who took vitals and drew blood, to the young lady who set up my next appointment...all were courteous, warm, and efficient.
Dr. Gottleib himself seemed kind, attentive, and thorough. Perhaps I've found a primary care physician after many years without one. :)
August 21, 2014Dennis M.Verified patient
My visit was so great. I showed up almost 30 minutes early for my appointment, he saw me right away. The nurse who drew my blood.. is the first nurse in 25 years that did it without making me cry. Best doctors experience ever.
July 2, 2014Adriana P.Verified patient
Dr. Gottlieb was thorough and very pleasant. His medical assistant Stephanie was also very nice. I didn't feel rushed during the visit. The only downside was having to wait 40 minutes in the waiting room.
