Ginsberg Lawrence D MD

Dr Ginsberg and his staff are some of the most heartless people on the planet. I was misdiagnosed as being bipolar. Dr Ginsberg put me on meds that did not work. In his arrogance he gave no thought to the fact that maybe a medical illness was making me depressed. I found out AFTER leaving him that I had an aggressive, untreated breast cancer. He talked down to me constantly.
He also made returning to work hell for me. I ended up leaving my job because I couldn’t keep up.
Anyone who is suffering from depression needs a thorough physical. Dr. Ginsberg missed the boat with me and I am lucky to be alive to write this review.
For the sake of your health and sanity do not entrust your health or mind to these people.
Dr. Ginsberg is so full of himself he’s about as pleasant as an obstructed bowel.

Don’t go here. They are all about the money and their offices are shabby and gloomy. The doctor I was supposed to see was told my situation and said he wouldn’t see me. I started to go ahead and write a check using my overdraft protection but I felt like that was no way to start off a doctor /​patient relationship. Not with any kind of mental health professional. All doctors should care for others but psychiatrists even more so because the pain is on the inside and how can you let it out to someone that won’t even see you unless he is paid in advance? If I hadn’t been told over the phone they accepted that card I would have made other arrangements the night before. And I told them on the phone I was depressed and suicidal. Dr Ginsberg does not care about people.

The doctors assistant Connie spent more time with my son than the Dr. did. She couldn’t have been any more disrespectful and not understanding. To put in perspective, ask yourself if you were in a conversation with her, she pauses (u would assume your waiting for her response) she replies with sarcasm — I don’t get paid past 5 o’clock! Take your business elsewhere. A 2 oclock appt and we didn’t leave until after 5. The first time I met Dr. Ginsberg very unprofessional, blue jeans, boots, and a Harley Davidson t-​shirt. I ride Harleys, but don’t think him wearing that was appropriate at all. I hope for nothing but the worse for this office.

I disagree on a few things with previous post. Yes I agree he is very intelligent on his expertise. An egocentric assistance he is not! His bedside manner is fine. He explains things to me in a way that I can understand my illness. His nurse that I see before he comes in is AMAZING as well. They both questions to better understand what I am going through.

Dr Ginsberg is a really intelligent man, but he’s also a flaming egocentric ass. He intellectually gets the idea of people being depressed and having anxiety, but he has no compassion for people who suffer from these illnesses. He has zero bedside manner. If you are looking for a doctor who understands human beings and has some compassion, you’d do better to look elsewhere.
