Highly recommend this practice to all and would return if needed!

The front desk staff at the time I went was very hot and cold. First starting very defensive and not being kind that I was not aware I needed additional paperwork (I moved states) and then ending my saying they will do their best to help me. Overall unclear if I am going to go back considering I was highly frustrated with the communication and initial interaction (which is such a shame because the PTs seem to be knowledgeable).

She is a consummate professional who brings encyclopedic knowledge of her field to each session along with an expert level of skill. But there's more to being an outstanding OT than being a brilliant practitioner. She also clearly cares about her patients, connecting with them effortlessly and remembering even the smallest details of conversations. Simply put, she is exceptional. If you need an OT who is a hand specialist, I can guarantee that when you visit Kathleen Siano your hand will be in good hands.

The irony of a slipping hazard in front of a spine pain office is not lost on me. If they approach the responsibility to their patients like they do their building, stay away.

The lack of communication and follow up is severely concerning when it's concerning his patients and their health and well being. She puts up a huge barrier where you can not get a hold of the doctor due to the fact she wants to own every process along the way but then sits on things with no urgency. Doctor Khan is so amazing but I'm dealing more with his receptionist than the actual doctor even after i have asked her to leave messages for him to call me back - still nothing.

Just stop your search and book with Joanna at The Well Bodyworks. Seriously…read more I've been a client of Joanna's for years (and have been too lazy to review), and she's simply the best massage therapist you can find. Every session is a little different because she actually listens and tailors everything to what you need that day. She's super professional, always on time, and knows exactly what she's doing--but also manages to make you feel totally comfortable the minute you walk in. She's incredibly skilled and intuitive (somehow always finds the exact right spot), but she's also just a great human--warm, kind, and easy to talk to (or not if you're the silent type). Her energy is calm and grounding, and the whole experience reflects that. She remembers details, checks in, and just makes you sure the treatment is right for you. If you want someone who's great at what they do and genuinely cares, Joanna's the one.

I am so glad I finally found a Dr who is excellent at what he does and is truly compassionate in wanting to help. Medically - he REALLY knows what he is doing - I am confident about his abilities and would def recommend him to a friend. He listens and then helps me understand what is the problem. Which he has always been able to help get better with his injections or even as simple as a Rx for a week. (And I have used other pain Managment Dr in California who was not anywhere as competent as Dr Lefkowitz- so I have other Dr to compare him to - Lefkowitz is Top of his Field) - and I travel to see him he is not in my neighborhood. He has new people in his office and I have to say his staff has stepped it up in the customer service department. In the past two phone calls to the office I called and asked a follow up question to the first person answering the phone and that person relayed all that information to the next person so I would not have to repeat myself. So the nurse I had to deal with was already up to speed and repeated back "as I understand it..." and she knew everything I said to the first person. Very good hand-off. That's outstanding for a telephone service for a Doctors office. usually you have to repeat yourself over and over. My experience visiting the office as well as on my recent phone calls that his staff were always very professional - smart - helpful - competent - precise - knowledgeable - calm - unrushed - they were truly listening when I talked not interrupting. All qualities you want from a medical office experience. So in addition to having a very competent Dr who has solved/cured me of several issues for me the office too gets high marks.

I began seeing Dr. Taylor after about 6 months of chronic groin pain that had returned as a result of antibiotic use, prostatitis, and nerve strain. In addition, I had a locked-up sacrum and some spinal scoliosis. I had been to several urologists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, and pain specialists. I had tried auto-immune diets, tricyclic antidepressants, steroidal pain blocks, etc. Over a few months, we reasoned through the groin pain, hatched several action plans, and in the process, made real progress against the pain, and definitely corrected some spinal alignment issues I'd had since childhood. There are so few doctors who practice Osteopathic Manipulation (OMM or OMT), especially in New York. While Dr. Taylor does not accept health insurance, his office assistant is provide a detailed bill that is easy to submit for out-of-network insurance coverage. When I was searching for DOs in New York who practice OMT, I went to many who either did not spend any time or effort in the session or had no idea what they were doing. Dr. Taylor upholds the incredible legacy of osteopathy by being perceptively hands-on, spending time with his patients, and refusing to rush judgements.
