Dr. Ira Steinmetz is a Rare Gem in Doctors. My husband and…read moreI shuffled through doctors in Brooklyn to find him. Dr. Steinmetz is just a caring, understanding, well-mannered, humble, and gracious person. I have to say person, because he has to be such a person first to be a doctor with those qualities. Not to be ignored is his staff. His staff is just as courteous and understanding. I read reviews putting them down - but I beg to say, the person writing such a review, doesn't quite have an understanding of what to expect from an office staff in such a delicate yet fast-moving environment, attending to phones, patients, and any requests of the doctor... May Jehovah God bless Dr. Steinmetz and his staff, giving all of them good health and long life so they may take care of us who need them.

Deceptive Billing, Unnecessary Blood Tests, and Public Humiliation…read more I scheduled my appointment through the clinic's website, which clearly stated the $300 fee included both the medical exam and completion of Form I-693. When I arrived, the receptionist confirmed this. Even the doctor told me--without me even asking--that the $300 covered both the appointment and the documentation. He said a blood test might be an additional charge and necessary to complete my I-693 which I agreed. I had already provided proof of all required vaccinations, and blood test that I got in another clinic and my insurance paid for it, so there was no medical reason to run any tests. Still, they mentioned one specific blood test, but then performed a different one that I did not need. When I returned to receive my results, I was suddenly told I had to pay another $300 to complete the documentation(form I-693) completely contradicting what both the website and staff had previously confirmed. When I questioned it, the receptionist began yelling at me in front of the entire waiting room and refused to finalize my paperwork unless I paid again. It was deeply unprofessional and humiliating. After leaving, I called the clinic to clarify. They told me the website was "wrong," and that the true cost was $300 for the exam and another $300 for the form (I-693) something never disclosed at any point. I requested a detailed, itemized bill showing the charges for both the appointment and filling the form but they refused. All they offered was a basic credit card receipt. When I finally received a billing summary, through email they cc two more people who could see all my bill and personal information, however they didn't disclose the charges and instead just sent me a total of due without specific information, so i had to request a disclosed bill and when I got it,they were charging me for hepatitis b, varicella and MMR titer and i had the vaccines for all these (I gave them my vaccine record including vaccines for these diseases so not blood test was necessary) This clinic is dishonest, lacks transparency, and operates unethically. They performed unnecessary medical procedures, changed prices after the fact, refused to provide proper billing, and publicly humiliated me. I strongly urge others to avoid this place at all costs

This medical office can be hazardous to your health!…read more I chose this office for a general check-up as I had not gone for one for several years. It was nearby, and the picutures of the office looked decent. I was able to make an appointment the next day, which was convenient. But, that is where the positives end. To start my exam, I saw a very nice young woman, but she was not a doctor. She was a PA. Spoke to me about my medical history, etc. I told her I was having an issue with my foot. A few days before, I went to a podiatrist (at a different location/office) and was told that I had injured my foot. I showed the PA my foot, and she said it looked normal (when it is more swollen than my other foot). So, who do I believe? The PA at Dr. Yuryev, or the podiatrist I had seen the week before? Well, the podiatrist ordered an MRI. I went for the MRI, and I have six stress fractures in my right foot. So much for the PA at this office for spotting an issue. Which, of course, they didn't. Then a blood test was taken. I received a call the next day from Dr. Yuryev's office to inform me that they have the results and that someone will call me to discuss. I then got a call from another PA at Dr. Yuryev to discuss the blood test result. First, he went over the good points. Then he went into the bad. I was told that I am anemic, with hemoglobin, hematocrit and RBC all below reference range. The PA told me that in addition to being anemic, I probably have a slow bleed inside of me, probably a tumor in my colon, and that I may have colon cancer. Well, when I heard that, I of course was quite upset. What is strange is that I have no pain and when I looked up the symptoms of colon cancer, I have none of it. I'm not tired all of the time, so I don't know how I could possibly have anemia. I was then told to see a gastroenterologist for a colonoscopy. I was given a reference to one from their office. Called the reference. An appointment was a month away and it was only a 10-minute video visit. That really isn't good enough. I found out on my own that I should have the blood test retaken and get a ferratin (Iron) blood test. So, what did I do? I went and found a really great gastroentrologist in Manhattan. Quickly got an appointment. Met with a real doctor this time. I showed him the blood test result. He said I shouldn't be too worried over it. He retook the blood test. And did a ferratin test. The result? Everything was in range! What a relief. The ferratin test showed everything with my iron levels was normal. Didn't look like I was anemic. While I was at the gastroenterologist, he set up a colonoscopy. I had that procedure done. The result? All NEGATIVE! No polyps, no tumors, no bleeding, nothing. I am NOT bleeding inside my colon, as I was told I probably was by the PA from Dr. Yuryev's office. I went into Dr. Yuryev's office feeling fine, and left being sick from what I was told. Thankfully it all worked out fine for me in the end, but the experience from Dr. Yuryev's office really scared me and worried me to no end for a couple of months until I knew the real results. What a lousy experience. PAs really aren't good enough. You need to see a doctor. With New York State now allowing PAs to administer your health care instead of a real doctor, more stories like mine may emerge. Moral of the story? Don't go to a doctor in Brooklyn. Always go to one in Manhattan if you can. There IS a difference!

Here's the Scoop: Dr. Werzberger, is an excellent doctor. His specialty is in internal medicine…read more I've been with him for over 15 yrs. he has help me adjust my asthma and allergies from out of control to seasonal. His bedside manner is par to none. He instructs you on your illness and if you follow direction you will get better. His staff is friendly, efficient and helpful. Whenever you enter the office you are greeted with a warm smile and courteous service. The bathroom and waiting room is always clean and clutter free. Plenty of magazines that are current and ready to be read. Appointments are needed but they do take walk-ins. His office is equipped to do many services. After I moved to the island I didn't want to change doctors because we have a great repore. So, I'm willing to take the trip to Brooklyn. I recommend him highly! If you have any internal issues he's the man. He accepts insurance plans and if course cash & personal checks.

Extremely disappointed. Although Dr.Werzberger is and has been my family doctor over 10 years and…read morehe is amazing. Lets start with the front desk staff.... the brunette there is a savage. Extremely condescending to the elderly and dismissive. Clearly upset with me as well because I have a front row view of her nastiness as I wait for my 1130am appointment. Don't dare ask the staff how long the wait is. They are unsure of everything. I'm unsure if they are overwhelmed, under experienced or just angry. I work in a hospital and we see 300+ people a day. I've never witnessed anything like this!! I truly love my doctor! He is great! The front desk can ruin the experience unfortunately. This rating is specifically for the staff not inclusive of the doctor. If you're looking for a great doctor he is the one. You can expect a wait and rude front desk staff unfortunately. The MA is amazing as well.

I went to this pain management practice for 3 herniated cervical discs. The pain was so intense and…read morelasting that I would wind up in the ER, vomiting. My PCP wrote a referral for pain management and this was the first practice that didn't treat me as a drug-seeking addict. Not only did they treat pain stemming from this cause, but also from a hereditary bad lower spine. There were tests, which also discovered tumors in my thyroid. Without this, I would never have gotten them biopsies. So far so good. They tried epidurals and nerve blocks, which did not work for me, and I wound up with prescription pain management. No more ER visits. I was able to sleep lying down for all but the rare, intense, breakthrough pain. But even the duration of this was shortened. Sadly, I moved out of the area and had to seek pain management in another state, where pain patients were looked upon as suspect. It took months to find anyone who would treat me, and would up going cold turkey off the medication I had brought in my move. After several months they decided they didn't want to treat pain patients anymore. They gave me a 1 month supply and told me (and others), to hit the road. This time I weaned myself off the medication gradually, but the pain returned as it left my system. It took 5 months and the intercession of my State Senator's office to find a practice which would treat my pain. So if you find a good pain management practice like Dr. Isaac Kreitzman's, reconsider moving away.
