While it has been about 10 years since I saw him. I agree with all the other commentators and would like to add that when I told him I was leaving him because I was unhappy with my service he insisted on giving me a rectal exam to check for colon cancer! I was very young and went along even though it didn't seem right. With a few years under my belt I can say I feel humiliated by this experience and while the statue of limitations I am sure has run out, while perhaps not technically criminal, I will leave it to you folks to decide about the morality of this episode.

I've been seeing him loyally for years out of local convenience. Asks the same basic insipid questions over and over, though he has all my history on file for the past 20 years... yes i'm not pregnant... why? vasectomy (not me, insert snore here) He can't read his own jots, neither can the pharmacists... they laugh about how they can't figure out his prescriptions, my opinion is run away and let him enjoy his well-earned retirement.

Wanted to talk to him about my allergy, he started to lecture me about my cholestorel level. Stoped me several times when I tried to tell my problem. Then he said goodbye. I told him but I came here for my allergy, replied, sorry dont have time. Is he treating human or cats n dogs? He literally writes the prescription in Hebrew. Paid my last visit. BYE BYE.

I thought I was on a cookie cutter production line. "Remove carpets in house before starting the standard serum of snake oil." But he started the serum anyway. Better results with Zrytec, which I had previously used, so I started taking the tablet again. Don't think he paid attention to what the referring doctor's request was. Stopped seeing him,

VERY insensitive! Made a sound of annoyance when I told him that my family got a puppy after our dog just passed away. Said that I am allergic to cats and dogs, but I am not as I was tested by my new allergist and got DIFFERENT RESULTS. He is also a hypocrit and said that he has asthma AND a dog. He was very rude and conceited overall. I would not send my worst enemy to this Dr.

Bad doctor and bad person, he treated myself and my child as if we were beneath him, he claimed that his overcharging "mistake" was not a big deal since it's such a "pithy sum" (several hundred dollars!). STAY AWAY and find an honest doctor with honest billing practices.
