Dr. is rude, disorganized, evidenced little interest in communicating to our child or to us/the parents. She attended the to her personal matters during the appointment, frequently leaving the room, and then she had no time to take questions. My child left the appointment scared and confused. If you want to be treated poorly by an arrogant woman, whose competency appears compromised then this is your doctor

Dr. was exceptionally rude, very disorganized-frequently leaving room to attend to private matters (she had no difficulty sharing this). No ability to engage the patient. Never experienced such poor conduct. If you want to be treated poorly by a very disorganized dr -who lacks interest in patient, and have your child leave appointment scared —then this is your woman!

Doctor is very rude. Even the front staff are rude. We wait hours when we come into this office. I wish I could switch but not many pediatric endocrinologists in this area.

Long wait time, barely spends time with patient, sends you to a random nurse for an hour before seeing her, hard to book appointments, flat out rude and condescending, no follow up

I brought my daughter to see Dr. Oppenheimer about a month ago. The Dr. prescribed lab tests, which we had done about 3 weeks ago. I've been calling her office and getting an answering machine, where I need to leave our name and phone number in order to get the results. I have called three times already, with no luck getting a call back. This is terrible service! I will be looking for a new doctor.

I waited with my daughter over an hour to see the doctor. It was unacceptable.
