I forgot my insurance ID and this is the worst staff I have ever seen. I never met the doctor but I believe he should be the same as his staff. I told the staff that I can email her my ID but she wasn't giving her email because she thinks she is too pretty. My foot. Please don't waste your time and energy on this doctor. There are plenty of good doctors out there. Stay away from these folks. They are absolutely non professional.

Excellent and very nice doctor. Soft spoken . You can ask anything and will explain things thoroughly. Have a very good bedside manner. The only downside is his staff. They are not friendly at all ,you never see them smile or at least greet you. Scheduling for an appoinment is not easy .

He is a very nice and soft spoken doctor. Getting appointment takes weeks and a return phone call the same. It's a shame his staff is the worst I have ever encountered in any doctors office. I dread even speaking to them, it's so bad I want to find a new doctor because of THEM!!!! So unprofessional . It's a shame for this doctor

This is a very insightful competent doctor. Sadly, his staff could be better. Compared to other doctors' office staff, they are not good about returning phone calls for appointments; often keep you on hold; don't show any initiative. Suspect this is one reason for long wait for appointments. Were he to have a better staff, this doctor's full talent would be better realized.

I waited months and months for an appointment with Dr. Baranetsky. I finally got in to see him and it was a total waste of time. He brushed me off and said my primary care doctor was doing a good job managing my problem and there's nothing he can do for me. Um hello?? She sent me to him!! He should have ordered blood and saliva tests, but didn't even do that. Nice guy, seems like he cares, but I think he's gotten old, got a good reputation and is lazy.
