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.

I was a patient of Dr Lefland for many years before moving full time to Florida 10 years ago. To this day even though my care down here is fine I still miss her approach to medical care and her interest in her patients.

For twelve years I have been under Dr Renee Lefland's care. I recently moved away, and the most difficult part was leaving her and her office. Dr Lefland has a wonderful combination of expertise, professionalism and friendship. I always left her office feeling better. Although I love where I live now, and have found another doctor, I will miss Dr Lefland very much.

My husband and I have returned to this office after a little bit of time away due to terrible insurance. We are so happy to be back. Dr. R. Lefland, Dr. X Chen, Dr. M. Sen are all so wonderful as is the staff. It is so nice to be recognized when you come in as if your family. The level of care you get is second to none and the covering doctor they have for you in the hospital, Dr. D. Kumar is amazing also. I am so glad to be back and being cared for by Dr. Chen and Dr. Lefland plus their staff

I have been a patient of Dr. Lefland for many years now. I feel that she is warm, compassionate and caring. I feel that after I leave there, she has addressed all my concerns and routinely follows up with me. Her staff is more than helpful in every way. I never had a hard time getting in to see any of the physicians there. Her billing office is very knowledgeable in all aspects of insurance and are truly a pleasure to work with.

Dr. Renee Lefland is a physician you can trust. I respect her medical knowledge and her ability to listen and address my concerns. Dr. Renee Lefland is compassionate and I never feel as if I'm being rushed. She has been my doctor for fifteen years. Her office is welcoming and the appointments on time. Even though I now live in Manhattan I still travel to her office on Long Island. I highly recommend Dr. Renee Lefland.

After visiting an Urgent Care office in Bellmore for acute pain in my right upper quad, I was given a chest x-ray & told I had pneumonia & given a prescription for Levaquin. I called Dr. Lefland & gave her this info Dr. Lefland called me back & told asked me to go for a CTA of the lungs as she did not feel comfortable with the diagnosis. I had a "pulmonary embolism" was sent immediately to the hospital & put on blood thinners. Dr. Lefland saved my life!
