The only reason that I'm giving one star is because you can't give zero. This guy is a quack and a…read moreone-trick-pony. Orthotics, orthotics, orthotics... My wife and I both went to him with different foot problems. The solution for us both: Orthotics. I wasn't inside of the door for 5 minutes before he recommended them. We had two different sets of friends who went to him with different foot problems than the both of us. The solution: Orthotics. Enough already!!! I know that they can be helpful in some situations, but that was the sum total of his input. I had Plantar Fasciitis and he didn't recommend any stretching, or PT type therapy. He didn't give me any mobility testing. When he told me that I needed them, he said that he'd checked with the insurance and they'll cover it. Two weeks later, he called me up to tell me that my orthotics are in and that they are $250 because the insurance didn't cover them. I asked for the pre-authorization and he couldn't produce it. In my opinion, he's a thief. There are plenty of qualified specialists that will take the time to work with you, but this guy is just going to take your specialist co-pay and try to get you into an incredibly expensive pair of inserts.

Phelps Northwell Croton I don't know why I call my physician…read moreat this office, my Primary Care Physician. My spouse is having a hip replaced in two days. I get a tic bite; I can't afford to get sick because I will be the only caregiver for recovery at home. I decide it prudent to follow the CDC recommended prophylactic treatment - one dose of an antibiotic, for high incident areas (New York State is one), within 72 hours. We both have a Primary Care physician at Phelps Croton, or so we have said. It's a simple request - there is a bite but no symptoms yet - you explain the situation to the intake office staff. The message back from a physician is to come back if and when I have symptoms; there is nothing else they can do. You ask for the practice manager who follows your logic, or so it seems, but repeats the message: Make an appointment when you have symptoms, otherwise go to an urgent care facility. Waiting for symptoms will be too late; I need this one dose asap, you explain - you are my primary care, or so I thought. Around it goes: again I explain - the antibiotic is to prevent a symptomatic disease, necessary within 72 hours of a bite, necessary to assure I can help my returning post-surgery spouse. Sorry, the manager says, but there is nothing I can do.
