Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Dr. Lefkon treated my father. He is a top expert. He explained everything that was going on. Dad benefited. Only trouble is that Doctors like him retire. Dr. Lefkon's knowledge is priceless. I only wish him the best in his retirement years. Ted Halpern

The office sucks. 10 days after procedure, neither my primary care nor a second urologist that i see in NY had received any report of either of my visits with this group -- despite giving names and contact info of other drs to staff, and specifically requesting fax. When I called to ask them to fax the reports to the drs, they refused unless i came in to sign new release. And when i then requested copy of records to send myself, they charged me $19.00 for copy of records. NEVER USE THEM.

I visited Dr. Lefkon for a consultation and eventual biopsy for prostate cancer about nine months ago. My biopsy proved negative but my follow up PSA still showed high numbers. My family Dr. was willing to ignore this due to the negative biopsy report. However I received a call from Dr. Lefkon the very next day. He did not like the fact that my free PSA was very low. He recommended a fusion biopsy.That showed an aggressive tumor which has been removed. I believe I owe my life to Dr Lefkon.
