Dr. Decided that super pubic must be done in hospital after scheduling it for in the office. It would have been appreciated if Dr. Vapnick had rescheduled the procedure for the hospital without an appointment to inform me. Such a waste of my time.

Terrible bedside manner. Terrible!
Actually got mad at me because I remembered something and tried to say it but he was talking so I did interrupt. But he actually got angry closed his eyes tight, his jaw clenched and he’s just a jerk.
Besides the fact, I waited over 30 minutes. Which wouldn’t have bothered me if he was nice, but he was not.

Dr. Vapnek is amazing! I was referred to him by my urologist for a surgery consult. I had a lot of questions and was very nervous going into my appointment. He answered all of my questions, addressed all of my concerns, and thoroughly explained all the options available to me. I walked out of my appointment feeling much more at ease and with all of my questions answered.
