Dr. Valenstein is always very thorough. He’s friendly to talk to, and answers any questions I have. My first visit was a few years ago, and he covered so much background that I chose to make him my regular physician.
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable and kind physician and I really appreciate his professional and kind manner. I was early for my appt. and I was seen 15 min before the appt time so it was very smooth.

Very kind and quickly made me less newvous.
Verified patient
He seemed in a rush and didn't really take the time to listen to what I was saying or to thoroughly examine what was going on. Perhaps that was because it felt straightforward though but in any event, would have appreciated him giving me more time of day.
He is an amazing doctor that provides quality of service to his patients. I also introduced my wife to him and she was very pleased as well. He understands how to communicate well, exceptional listener and will always provide and or recommend a solution

The visit was pleasant as always
Verified patient
The waiting time was short. The doctor came and listened to my concerns but he was not able to help me at all. He just said that it was nothing serious but I am still feeling so sick. I asked him to run some tests to investigate more but nothing. I would not recommend this doctor.
He is very understanding and he listens carefully. I'm really glad I chose him as my primary care physician. It is also good to be part of a good hospital group of doctors.
Verified patient
He was exactly what I needed. The process from the front desk staff experience, nurses, medical assistants, phlebotomist were great. It was also a new experience with having the staff members remembering my name. This was my first visit! I will definately be back for my annual check ups and I will recommend anyone to this practice
