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.

Would definitely recommend Dr. Schlossberg.
He did not rush through the office visit and took time to explain everything to us.

Excellent communicator
This was my first visit to Dr. Schlossberg. I found him to be very sensitive, kind and knowledgeable. He explained in great detail my particular situation and made it easy for me to understand. He is easy to talk to, and conveys his information in a way that is easy to understand. I would strongly recommend Dr. Schlossberg to anyone.

Very knowledgeable doctor, and is willing to try or stop treatments on the fly, if not working or there is something better. Very thorough with testing and follow ups, most importantly, Dr. Schlossberg is a good listener. He listens to my needs and problems, and then gives his medical opinion.

He is an excellent and thoughtful physician.
Receptionists are friendly. Being seen for blood work/doctor is at or close to appointment time. Never a long wait. Nursing staff friendly and efficient. Makes patient feel at ease in what is a stressful situation.

I would highly recommend him without reservation!
Dr. Schlossberg has always beat friendly and upbeat. He communicates directly and clearly. He willingly and understandably answers any and all questions that my wife and I have. I have trusted the treatment regimen that he developed, and have been pleased with the way that he coordinates with my primary surgeon.

I have had a chonic form of leukemia for 27 years for which I have had chemotherapy twice. Since my last treatment in 2007 I have been followed by my primary care physician until two years ago when my blood counts began to decrease. At that time i consulted with Dr Schlossberg.At our first visit he explained my options and we decided to monitor my condition closely rather than rush into another coarse of therapy. I have seen him every 4 -6 months since and my condition has been stable. The staff has always been curteous and efficient and the phlebotomists do an excellent job with my blood draws. I have never had a significant wait time but I do schedule appointments between 9 and 10 am

I have been seeing doctors for my cancer history and hemachromitosis (blood disorder) for about 20 years. Over that time i had about 5 doctors--changes primarily due to retirement. Most of my experience has been positive. I have been seeing Dr Schlossberg for about 3 years. My experience with him at the clifton park office of nyoh has been very poor. I have walked out several times after waiting 30 to 45 minutes. My interaction with the DR when i did see him was very rushed

My mother faced with a diagnosis of cancer. Several doctors confirmed and conferred on her diagnosis and treatment plan. We found that Dr. Schlossberg approached my mother in a caring calming and down to earth manner. He asked her what her understanding of her condition was. and what reservations she had about treatment. The conversation started there, in a very personal manner and addressed her own personal concerns. This doctor is clearly extremely knowledgeable and personable. High marks!

My experience with this doctor was average at best. I was not happy with the fact that I had several questions that could have been addressed over the phone but was never able to actually speak to him. Everything had to be relayed though another employee. I had a few emergencies and was never able to get into see him in a timely fashion. Maybe he is just so good that he was to busy to see me. Not sure. I think he knows what he is doing but getting into see him took a month.
