I was referred to Play & Say by my OT bestie, Marilyn R., and thought it was well worth the looking…read moreinto to give our two year old son speech therapy, based on the recommendation of our pediatrician. Going into the world of speech therapy head-on as a family, caused us to have never-ending questions, doubt, fear, and frustration, but the wonderful staff at Play & Say as been nothing but reassuring, professional, friendly and nurturing from Day 1 when we did an evaluation for services. Ms. Lisa and Ms. Victoria are a patient, engaging, and delightful duo every time we bring my son in for his sessions. He goes three days a week, at a half hour at a clip, but he went from being scared and crying, to literally running inside and not turning back! He truly looks forward to coming, and consistently seeks the praise from Lisa and Victoria. He's already come such a long way from only being 3 weeks in, but we've made an impactful choice on his future by coming here. He's signing better than what I've been trying to get him to do on my own for months, and he's making new sounds that are the precursors to some new words. It's been very fulfilling to say the least. Lisa is incredibly knowledgeable in her field, and will explain at length next steps and what to expect. She's been nothing but a light in this gloomy and uncertain time in our parenthood, and I view her as a friend and educator. Victoria is bubbly, friendly, and extremely approachable, as my son first engaged with her on his very first day! Lisa has worked with my husband, my in-laws, and myself to make sure we are all on the same page to set my son up for success. The space is impeccably clean, and so inviting for children to come and learn through play! My son has discovered the play kitchen and we even bought him some static toys similar to what he's used to at Play & Say, so we can continue practicing at home. I would recommend to ANYONE who is looking into speech therapy for their child and that Play & Say is a gem in our neighborhood.

This place is very deceiving. My child went here for 8 months. I was shock to find out my child…read morewas not receiving speech therapy but left to play on his own with play dough the whole time while the therapist did personal things and have personal chats with other therapists. It's unprofessional that other therapists would engage with personal chats and allow this to happen while working with a child. It also creates anxiety for the child. I paid approximately $80 for 30 minute sessions. I always felt like the place was hiding something because progress was regressing and there was little communication with the therapist. I took action and got to the bottom of it. When I found out what was happening, I made it clear to the director but never received a response. I will be sharing the audios to warn other parents.

For the few not 4+ star reviews complaining about insurance issues or anything else, check with…read morethem beforehand. The receptionist in front is frankly a master at medical billing/insurance (which I would know as a medical coder) and works tirelessly with hospitals (which tend to cause these issues) to make sure that payments can be properly made and everything works out fine. Also, call to make appointments. Zocdoc has this issue with a ton of different providers and the people here will know exactly whether he can take your insurance. Anyway, I happened to be injured with a right humeral spiral fracture several months ago and I went to Lennox Hill Hospital. I luckily had Dr. Schildhorn as my surgeon (as it had to be stabilized with an ORIF.) Along with making the pre-surgery itself comfortable, Dr. Schildhorn was courteous at all post-op visits whether they were at his office or at Lennox Hill. He is a perfectionist and wants to make sure that people have as close a range of motion to their original as possible. He also listens to complaints and offers proper responses and doesn't over-inflate any diagnoses. In short, he's an excellent orthopedic surgeon. It's hard not to be bias as my right arm is as good as new even though the surgery has potential issues. Highest of recommendations for this doctor. 5/5.

I'd echo all of the accolades below. This doctor is absolutely delightful in every way.read more

Wow, what an awful, miserable human being Dr. Steven Zaretsky is. The first time I saw him I…read morefigured he maybe lacked some bedside manners and chocked it up to busyness or a bad day. Unfortunately my insurance company required me to return. He was so rude to me that I wouldn't have been more shocked if he'd slapped me across the face. His impatience throughout ("come on, just answer the question!") was outdone only by his exasperation with my answers ("was it April or May? Get it right!") and was punctuated by a disgusted sneer when he all but called me a liar ("looks like we've got an actress on our hands here."). It was truly unbelievable, and the receptionist who he brought into the office without explanation to witness my humiliation looked pretty embarrassed by his behavior as well, if unsurprised, leading me to believe that he treats all his patients like this. I felt pretty bad for her. I worked for years in the service industry, so I can't stand lollygaggers who waste time and always try to be efficient. I consider myself a pretty easy patient. Dr. Steven Zaretsky treated me like I was total scum that he was forced to take the time to scrape off his shoe. I would rather undergo surgery with a rusty razor than be forced to return here. What an a$$hole.

Our son Jaxon has been coming here for about a year and a half and they are exceptional. Our son…read moreprobably has high level two maybe even level three autism and the girls that work with him are remarkable. Jax has Karolina, Olivia, "Toy", and Audrey. You can tell that they truly love working with him and that they have a true passion for what they do and we are so blessed that we found Brave Wings . The girls at the front are also very understanding and super sweet. We thank Jesus for this place everyday. Highly recommended.

I want to start off by saying that all of the therapists & staff are genuinely good people & are…read moreexceptional at their jobs. They are the real super heroes of this place. But it is with a broken heart that I have to give this review because of the owners & their shameless behavior in the pursuit of their own self-preservation. If an apple is rotten at its core, it's only a matter of time before the rest begins to rot out as well. My child had been attending their full time ABA program here for three years until it abruptly came to an end after receiving a letter during dinner one night that was likely a product of ChatGPT from the owners Jennifer Moore & Naomi Sutton. In short, we learned that all services for my child (and several others) were being canceled and the last day would be in the next 29 days. It also included a list of other centers that were clearly just some results of a quick Google search. The letter directed us to direct all of our questions or concerns to their "patient care coordinator" who was wholly un-equipped and uninformed to respond to our concerns. She provided nothing more than her marching orders & delivered a scripted response. It was clear that the abrupt cut to so many of their kids was a result of larger business & insurance issues that had been in proliferation for MONTHS & they must have thought the parents were either too stupid or blind to notice. Further, several requests were made to speak with the owners and each and every one was INTENTIONALLY IGNORED AND DISMISSED. We are parents who place our blind trust and care in the hands of others and a request for something as simple as communication should be a given. So, to be repeatedly denied the opportunity to be heard is an alarming red flag for this establishment & there is no reason to believe we will be the last to have the same experience. So Madams, please consider this your open letter - families like mine are fragile & vulnerable & this life is riddled with people who repeatedly let your children down. And even then, few are as low as to discard your child like Sunday night's trash so you can "just get out of it as quick as we can." So count yourself amongst this despicable population because we will NEVER recover from this, but we are also here to remind you that we will never absolve you of your cowardice and shame.
