Dr. Larry Brandis MD

I came for this appointment on a Thursday afternoon. I was the only person waiting in the waiting room, and this was by far the longest I've waited for any of the ZocDoc appointments I've made (with no acknowledgement) When the doctor came to see me, he was curt and rude. At one point over confusion about when I was experiencing my symptoms, he exclaims, "I'm not stupid. Even though I know you think I am" Not only did this make the rest of the visit extremely awkward and uncomfortable, but I had said nothing to possibly offend him. I had also written a detailed note of my symptoms when I made the appointment, and it was clear that he had not read any of it. The appointment itself was over in less than 10 minutes. Although I have no doubt that he is well-qualified and knows what he's doing, for the entire short duration I was there, all I wanted to do was leave because of his condescending and brusque manner, even if that meant I would have to schedule an appointment elsewhere. After he left, I was sent out to reception without the names, directions or dosage for either medications he recommended. I had to remind them myself to write it down for me. I've had nothing but excellent doctors on ZocDoc and I'm sorry to say that has been one of the worst doctor appointments I've ever had in my life.

Seems like he really cares about his patients. As a person who is very nervous around doctors, I found him easy to talk to and willing to spend some time discussing my problem. I also liked that he was not in a rush to put me on medication that I might not need.

Excellent Provider, Honest. He advised that he would be more than happy to take me on as a patient, But since I have Numerous Medical Conditions he advised that other arraignments with a Hospital group would benefit me more. Truly an amazing Doctor who cares more about his patients than making a profit. I will continue to follw Larry's advice. Good Health all
