If there was an option to give him 100 stars, that would still not be nearly enough. Dr. Nissenblatt is the most compassionate, caring, and kind men I have ever met. When diagnosed at age 41 with cancer (wife and young family) I was a mess. The first thing he told me was I was going to be ok, and then he explained my treatment plan to me and my wife in terms we understood. He has a waiting list of individuals wanting to see him, yet when you are with him, he takes all the time in the world and makes you feel like his only patient. He has called me at home at 10pm and also at 6:30am just to check in on me. HE CARES!!! If you are diagnosed with cancer, run as fast as you can to Dr. Nissenblatt's office and beg to see him if needed. I will be ever grateful to this man for everything he has done, and continues to do for me.

Dr Nissenblatt gave my Mother and Grandmother much more time with our family than any other doctor ever expected. My Mother had a very progressed breast cancer and he did not give up. She lives in remission for 20 years after his treatments. I will forever be grateful for Dr Nissenblatt.

what do you say about the man who saved my life. From my first visit with the findings of an agressive through chemo, emergency stay and mastectomy, he never left my side. As busy a man as he is, he makes you feel like you are his sole patient. He's brilliant! He's my hero.
