Dr Liebowitz is intelligent and compassionate. Over the last 20 years he has treated me for a number of ailments, all of which healed beautifully. And most impressive -- he never did surgery, which was an option a couple of times. He is a doctor that I trust completely to do the right thing for me.
Verified patient
I had a very good experience with Dr. Liebowitz. He might come off a touch brusque, but he also listened closely to my symptoms and inspired a feeling of trust and confidence. Also, the gentleman who took care of the x-rays (I didn't catch his name) was very friendly and welcoming as well.
Verified patient
Dr liebowitz was very nice and saw me same day for a bad hip. He spent his time asking good questions and didn't make me get unnecessary X-rays and mris. Thank you!
Verified patient
I previously saw three other doctors. Dr Liebowitz was the only Dr who took the time to not only explain my X-Rays but took another one on the spot to show me the difference between my left and right hand side. Now I understand the issue. I wish I went to him first.
After almost half a dozen doctors that didn't help much or listen to me Dr. Liebowitz came through for me and tended to my issue. He's great! Funny guy and really knows his stuff. Trust me you won't regret it!
Verified patient
Terrific doctor, very thorough, good with follow up. I couldn't walk after getting hit by a car, the hospital said it was muscle issues. This doctor ordered an MRI, it was a fractured pelvis. He wrote a prescription for physical therapy and followed my case until I vould walk well again.
Verified patient
Dr Liebowitz is a gentleman and a first-rate doctor. He knows his stuff and is very easy to relate to. He listened to my concerns and explained things clearly. Highly recommended.
Full disclosure-- the actual office wait time was not more than 2 hours (probably around 30 mins) BUT with all the extra work I had to do it might as well have been. I would not go back here as the front office staff are not very helpful. I was told I needed pre approval from my insurance for an MRI and that someone would call me by the following day (Tuesday) with approval. I did not hear from the office, so I called on Wednesday afternoon and was told someone would call back on Thursday. I did not hear anything by Friday morning, so I called again and was told I would be contacted Friday afternoon. Didn't hear anything again. At that point, I called to schedule the MRI for the following Monday just to get it out of the way and the staff at the Radiology center said they'd call and confirm with Dr. Liebowitz's office. By Monday, I still hadn't heard from Leibowtiz's office so I called again (this is the fourth time) and was told someone would get back to me by 3pm, and to call back if I didn't hear anything. By 3:30, I hadn't heard anything so called for the 5th time and finally got an answer: my insurance didn't require pre approval. In summary, all the phone tag back and forth was for nothing because the staff didn't do their due diligence and gave me the wrong info. Dr. Liebowitz, however I would give 5 stars he seemed very expierenced and had a good bedside manner.
Dr. Liebowitz is an easy going guy who genuinely cares for his patients. He didn't rush me into any meds or surgery for a torn meniscus, but recommended PT to let it heal on its own.
Verified patient
The visit was great, I haven't been to a dentist in a long time, they really took good care of me, very informative, and professional.
Dr. Liebowitz and another doctor in his office were pleasant, helpful, friendly, and gave a successful treatment for a small hand injury. Highly recommend.
He clearly knows symptoms, and specifics of all foot, ankle, knee, and hand related subjects. However, I wish he would be a little less quick with his patients and take more time to speak about symptoms issues and recommended methods of treatment. Every time I leave the doctors office I notice that my actual appointment with the doctor was less than 5 minutes long....
This was a return visit after many years, and he hasn't changed a bit. He's a wonderful doctor, and I left, once again, feeling that I was in very good hands.
Quick, easy, relatively helpful. I wish he could have spoke to me a little longer about my injuries and certain precautions to take... but for the most part he is a knowledgable and dependable MD.
Great doctor
One of the receptionists was a little standoffish but the other was very pleasant. Liebowitz moves quickly, although I didn't feel rushed. He knows what he's doing and he sent me in for an x-ray right away and within 5 minutes was able to tell me what was wrong. The appointment was very quick total of about 10-15 minutes the most. The office looked outdated. It wasn't dirty but it's probably the most outdated offices I've ever been to.
The office is fairly old. They don't take credit cards which is a hassle and to top it off, the doctor spent a total of about 6 minutes with me. While he is very personable and a very nice doctor, I would have preferred more time spent with patients instead of cramming one after the other.
Very professional and diligent.
Wish other offices were operated the same way
