    This "Doctor" is a joke. He requested to see me twice within 7 days, did nothing for me and then…read moreasked me to leave a positive review. He could not even remember the reason for my visit. His office staff are a bunch of children. The kid who tried to take my blood (twice) could barely form a coherent English language sentence. "Doctor" Leeman also uses the same excuse ("Results were questionable" heard through the door) to perform the same tests over so he can charge your insurance company twice. Honestly, his license should be pulled. A complete disgrace.

    I often wonder why someone would go through the time and expense required to get a Medical Degree…read morewhen he or she has absolutely no desire to help patients. I am 60 years old, have been going to the doctor forever and this is the first and only time in my life where I have ever felt that a doctor had absolutely no interest, desire, or care to work with, or help me whatsoever. My story is, I supposedly needed to get pulmonology clearance for an ERCP Endoscopy due to intense gastrointestinal pain I was experiencing for over a month. I went to Leeman seeking this clearance and here is my non embellished, true experience: First Visit ($50 Copay) - He did a breathing test and told me it was "not too bad". He asked me to go get blood work and told him I had that with my Gastroenterologist, as well as Cardio clearance as well, and requested his office contact them for copies. He then told me to go get a chest X-ray and come back again, for which I went slogging in a rainstorm to get - that very same day. He made me go to his radiology place and refused to talk to anyone else for me. It was Zwanger-Peseri or nothing. I knew right there I was in some trouble here. No other Doctor is that inflexible. He mentioned to me several times about some app to make appointments on, so I even signed up for that and did as he asked. Did he know I did that? Nope. Clueless. Second Visit - ($50 copay) - He asked me to come back again with my medication vials in a bag to prove to him what meds I take. I have never EVER been asked that by any doctor I have EVER visited and thought this was way over the top, but since I thought I needed his help, I complied. So, like a bag lady I went back with my meds in hand a week later, still in pain, and he was not interested at all. He then did another breathing test which he told me "wasn't great" and that's it. He also loves to say the same thing all of the time" we like to get as much information as possible, we need blood work and cardiology information". I gave him all of this info at my first visit, where to obtain it as all of my blood work and clearances went to my Gastroenterologist, and I asked him to have his staff contact this doctor again because the insurance Company would never pay for another set of labs so close together, any Dr. would realize this. His response was "ok, make another appointment, are you are on my app"? Not trying to disrespect anyone, but the guy is clueless. Maybe this is why there are no workers in his office and I had to sit there for 20 minutes? After 20 minutes, I knocked on the door for to see if anyone was there, and he himself came to the door and told me to sit down, wait, and shut up. I continued to participate in the charade because I thought I needed this for my procedure as I mentioned. 3rd & final appointment: I refuse(d) to pay this $50 copay because I got absolutely nothing out of 2 prior visits, and was asked the same things over and over with his office not wanting to do anything at all to help me, including call my other doctor for lab work results and Cardio clearance. It was as though it was my first visit ever to him. He actually asked me again "what are you here for"? I was beside myself and noticeably annoyed at his lack of concern for the pain I was experiencing which I deeply conveyed. It is so bad I am thinking of reporting him to the AMA and NYS Medical board for just a total lack of patient awareness and care. As I said, I have never felt so unwanted at any Doctors office as I did at his. To conclude, I had my ERCP Endoscopy yesterday, did not need his help or clearance after all and wasted my wits, money, and time, so all I can do after that is warn anyone thinking of going to Doctor Benjamin Leeman TO STAY THE HECK AWAY unless you want to go to a Doctor who could care less about his patients well being. If that is what you seek, Leeman is your guy.

    The Problem with the People who gave 1 star is it's easy to see that they have no problem with the…read moredoctor who the office was packed with people who were there to support the Black Highly Qualified and Caring HEART SPECIALIST, Doctor Ola or the Professionals who work in the office. The whining was not about the care but the waiting and crazy crowd during the pandemic. When so many doctors were limiting their hours Dr O was there for the community. He's not hurting for patients so go try and find another caring community based highly educated and qualified heart care specialist. The office and waiting room are not fancy but highly functional with skilled caring staff. Yeah I'm fairly new to the place but Dr Ola came highly recommended by a very discerning person who has been a long time patient. If he's a fan of Dr Ola it's enough for me. And overall the chatter about services in the waiting room is very encouraging to hear. The equipment is very up to date and the time that I've had to wait to be seen is by no means lengthy. I have seen walk-ins being taken but I have always been seen within a reasonable time frame from my appointment time. Call and see if they are able to accommodate you like I did. I'm very pleased to be able to call Dr Ola my heart doctor, aka My Cardiologist.

    This place is horrible watch out, the main doctor has an attitude. Honestly everyone has an…read moreattitude; you call they leave you on hold for an hour. You ask them to send you something in a email they don't send it. This is the worst doctors office I've ever been to in my entire life. The front desk is full of women that don't want to help you. They just want to show up and collect a check. They argue amongst themselves in front of patients. I've been going there with my mother for a few years and dealing with their horrible service because my mother just loves the doctor and wants to stay(ie my mother just wants to support a black business). But everything changed when the doctor snapped on my mother over a jury duty exemption request, my mother is a senior citizen with dementia and he is my mother's primary doctor! Now I have to find a whole new doctor to get this done and I'm having a hard time with them giving me my mother's medical records. They just refuse to email me the hipa form so I can get it released to the new doctor. Their entire business is a joke, the truly sad thing is I really think they're just over encumbered With too many patients to actually care as a private practice. Last year their main doctor was handling my sisters cancer. He recommended an oncologist, the oncologist recommended chemo, and my sister had a adverse reaction to the chemo. The main doctor and the oncologist never once checked on my sister in the hospital didn't even call her. My sister was in the hospital for a month. I had to rush and find it a whole new team of doctors to help my sister before she passed away. Thankfully she still alive, but if I would've sat there and listen to the main doctor, my sister would probably be dead. WORST PRACTICE EVER

I have been his patient for over 15 years and I'm grateful to him for always being there. He leads in creating the absolute personification of making the patient comfortable and truly, genuinely, and totally cared about. He is the living example of the definition of the word "Mensch" His Medical Skills are World Class and Second to None. His Office Staff are the Absolute BEST! Always Smiling, Making you feel at home. The atmosphere in the office is Friendly and Warm and you feel like you are part of the family. The world is a better place because of Dr Weinstock and kudos and honors to him and the Staff.

This happened on two occasions. I'm not a doctor. He's supposed to know what to do- lower , raise a dose or change the medication. He doesn't return phone calls until you call him the third day. He sent me to a specialist who had no knowledge of my condition and ordered a dose of medicine Dr Seinstock took me off of because I had a reaction. When I said "Dr Weinstock I wasn't pleased with the doctor you sent me to" je hung up the phone! He should have found out why if he's referring patients to this guy. Rude and what doctor says "What do you want to do?" Doctors usually return calls in 24-48 hours. Doctors do not hang up on patients.

Came in for them.to twll.me at the window I will be seeing the physicians assistant. Which is fine she is very good as well but if I make an appointment to see the doctor I should have been notified. I do testing, take home stress monitor. I called the office asked for my results no call back. I was told to make appointment to come in for results. I made the appointment. The day of the appointment o brought my Husband because coming for results mean different. I go in. Again see the PA for her to tell me everything is fine and negative. Im like ok thank you. How do you call me in for negative results I've been calling for? I called the office and explained why did I pay a co-pay for negative results. They tell me I have to spenk to MADURA shes the only one who can issue a refund. Well I called her for 3 weeks! She was always in a meeting or not there. When I finally spoke to her I explained the situation. She said why did I come in I had a right to refuse. I said why wouldnI refuse, if the doctor says come for results to me thats a issue to be addressed. She said call my insurance to get the money back. We'll I had to file a claim with my insurance. Funny my insurance said they were never billed but they took my $40 co-pay. MADURA said she doesn't like being told shes ignoring her patients. I asked if she was a doctor. She disclosed shes the doctors wife. This is a unprofessional money grab! I recommend you ask questions and take down names. Call your insurance!
