Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Dolgin operated on my husband 14 years ago today for a simple hernia and during the course of the procedure he apparently nicked the bowel and 2 days later my husband developed a fever and his office virtually ignored my desperate phone calls and as a a result my husband developed sepsis which led to a series of horrible consequences which persist to this day

Dr. Dolgin was my Husbands vascular surgeon for a procedure at NYU Langone, two surgeries, one was 9 hours. He was very thorough explaining His part during the procedure and I would recommend him for any surgery.

I have been a patient of Dr. Dolgin for 21 years. He saved my right arm after another Doctor said “there was nothing more he could do”! He has also operated on me for small bowel obstructions and a Lumpectomy. Wouldn’t consider seeing anyone else. Fantastic Doctor and Friend!

My journey has been a bumpy one filled with emergencies .Somehow Dr. Dolgin manage to find immediate time to fit me in to his busy schedule ,he is respectful of appointment times yet manages to give me the patient a focused exam and bring to it a plan of action. i am grateful that a doctor like Carey Dolgin exists. He bring to his practice knowledge wisdom and kindness
