Can't get better service any place else!
He is a good doctor but he needs to do more actual patient care not just doing his computer diagnosis and reports he need to do more patient care not only looking at the patient making their prescriptions and seeing them after 6 months I feel he needs to be more concerned with patients welfare
Not patient-friendly. Does not ask any questions, nor does he give time for anyone to ask questions. Rushes out the door. Had an appointment at 10:30 AM, called in at 11:00 AM, waited 50 minutes thereafter, and left at 12:00. It's time for him to retire, as he seems to have lost his patience with his patients.
No waiting , clean office, very nice staff
Quick and fast knowledgeable doctor! Staff at his offices are great!
Dr. Agatstein was very personable. My first impression was a good one. He made me feel comfortable and explained the use of the medication he put me on.
Superlative health care. Doctor is an expert in the field.
Just the best ever THKS
To long and crowded in the waiting room
The best!
