I have recommended several people to Dr Stein and they have all been very impressed by his knowledge and his manner . It is almost impossible to find a doctor who will take time with you and communicate properly with their patient, but he does . I was so taken back by the amount of time he spent reading my records and getting to know me on my first visit . I have several issues and he is always attentive calls you immediately with your test rest and all and all is a good man and a great dr

Dr. Stein, whom I saw as a specialist at the request of my PCP, is a phenomenal doctor. He spent about an hour with me, having me go over every single detail of what I'd been experiencing; not once did I feel that I was being "rushed along" so that he could see to his next patient, and when it was determined that I needed to pay a visit to the ER, he showed me the utmost kindness and compassion (as I was a little freaked). I cannot recommend him enough, and will be switching to him as my PCP.
