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.

I felt Dr. Sidelnik lacked any semblance of beside manner and has an extremely controlling personality. Upon initial consult, he comes across as very helpful and has a kind demeanor but as you continue to work with him he becomes brash and (for lack for better term) hurtful. I would certainly not recommend him to any prospective new patient, and am very surprised given his NYU affiliation and professional accolades.
