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.

Excellent!

Dr. Lustig has incredible bedside manner. He is great with anxious kids and explains clearly and thoroughly to parents. Wait time was longer than ideal though

Simply The BEST…
Dr. Lusting and his team are AMAZING. When you walk in the office you’re greeted right away. The check in process is fast and easy even as a new patient. The office and restrooms are clean. From the moment Dr. Lusting walked in the office his bedside manner is a 15 out of 10 for me and my daughter, she couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the visit to the office was. If you have children I would highly recommend Dr. Lusting and his team. I observed his team with smaller children and they was just as awesome with the small children. Dr. Lusting and team keep up the amazing work this visit was worth the entire 45 minutes of driving that it took us to get to the office, we’ve found our new office…

Amazing
The best experience for my 6 year old. The office was clean and child friendly. My daughter normally cries when getting eye drops. He was so quick she didn’t have a chance to cry and realize what was happening. Dr. Lustig was the perfect professional pediatric ophthalmologist. I think I enjoyed him more than my child.

Dr. Lustig is a kind and compassionate Dr. He gives special needs parents hope and is very positive. He truly cares about his patients. We travel from Staten Island to see him and he is worth the trip. Dr. Lustig makes the world a better place for kids with CP.

Very good with kids
My kids are always afraid of doctors as they associate doctors with shots/jabs but Dr. Lustig were able to make friends with my kids right away using games that help him examine their eyes. Definitely recommend him to anybody.

Should be sued for incompetence
Dr. Lustig, while very pleasant and with good credentials, couldn't have been more incompetent. He was reassuring us that everything was fine when it clearly wasn't. We are a medical family and asked all the right questions, and were consistently told that no intervention (glasses, surgery, etc) were needed. Finally went to other pediatric ophthalmolgists (including another doctor in his practice) who promptly prescribed glasses and recommended surgery. We wasted so much valuable time trusting Dr. Lustig.
