Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Awful doctor.
If I could give a zero review, it would still be too high. This person is a disgustingly rude, degrading, nasty individual. He should not be practicing medicine, which is supposed to be a service to people needed healthcare.

Miserable old man
Hands down the worst doctor I've dealt with so far. I guess if you want mediocre medical care and verbal insults this is your guy.

Did not address the infection I have. Prescribed medication to alleviate my symptoms. He put my health at risk. Second opinion showed I gave a obstruction from a kidney stone. Need to go for a stent and then a Lithotripsy.

Terrible. Via Telehealth at the direction of my primary care doctor and he was downright rude, and asked me why I wasted his time. Also told me not to play doctor when trying to describe my symptoms. Declined to even send a patient summary ??

He was rude and condescending. Told me they were 800 antibiotics out there which one would I like? That is after he refused to give me an antibiotic for a severe sinus infection woke up the next day with clogged ears and had to call him back again only to get charged for another visit. Reached a different doctor at one point and he said I definitely an absolutely need an antibiotic. The pharmacist agreed and also question why he put me on a steroid when I did not have problems breathing. He kept getting disconnected with me on Amwell.

Dr. Lentnek has wonderful staffs (Wendy and Maryanne) that were prompt in helping me throughout a stressful process. Dr. Letnek explained my condition thoroughly and returned my phone call for additional questions I had.

This doctor is strictly money hungry! He claims that he is a smal little long island doctor who can’t do much for his patients. Do NOT see him. It will be a waste of time. He flat out said there is nothing anyone can do for people with immune difficiencies. He is also stuck on 1970 medical beliefs, and runs his office as such. Stay away!!
