    I would rate my likelihood to recommend Dr. David Edelheit a 9 out of 10. I am very likely to recommend him to others. As his practice has grown, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in his interactions with me. He has become more personable, attentive, and understanding, which has made my overall experience much more positive.

    The departure of my previous physician led to my being assigned to a new provider, whose approach was unexpectedly adversarial. Rather than engaging collaboratively to address my concerns and care needs, he focused heavily on recounting his own professional experiences. Notably, he repeatedly emphasized that he had 25 years of experience, which came across as an attempt to assert authority rather than build rapport or trust. During the discussion, he also made statements indicating that his prior actions had resulted in patient deaths—remarks I found both alarming and inappropriate in the context of a routine medical interaction. Throughout the appointment, he appeared preoccupied with justifying his professional decisions instead of fostering a supportive, patient-centered environment. This approach was concerning and did not inspire confidence in his ability to provide empathetic and constructive care.
