He’s such a great doctor and person. Never rushes through the appointment and always ask if you have any concerns.
The doctor is nice & professional … the waiting is 1.5 hours
He's very personable. I enjoy going to him. He's a cool cat.
I was a previous patient at the Great Neck office many years ago. Great that my old records were still in their system. Dr. Li was very thorough and answered all my questions. Friendly professional staff. I highly recommend. The only reservation I had was with their way of payment, The co-payment was demanded at time of visit. With Medicare/UHC, I remit only after I receive an Invoice as my copayment sometimes is less. I inquired what happens if my copay turns out to be less…. I was advised I would only get an office credit and I do not need to return until Oct. 2025. Seems a bit unfair.
Very thorough and professional. He made me feel very relaxed and comfortable.
Very professional
