Dear Dr. Doctor Plotnick this is your patient Mark Green reaching out to you from Ashdod Israel. At this point, I am having a problem with Israeli doctors. Please provide an email that will allow me to explain an issue. Thanks, Mark

the doctor did not come before, or after to speak with friend/POA in regards to what the EDG showed what were the results, etc. No consideration for patient considering after EDG patient needed a blood transfusion. No idea as to what the diagnosis is.

Dr. Plotnick performed a colonoscopy on me this week and he made me feel good and secure (I was very nervous). I felt nothing and the screening lasted 20 minutes or less. He told me I have to come back in 5 yrs. and I’d definitely do it again with him.

Dr. Plotnick is a doctor who makes you fell very comfortable, he really listens to you, and asks questions to make sure he is understanding what you are telling him, as well as asking questions for you if you do not think of them. He and his team of nurses get back to you right away, and show you that you really matter to them.Dr. Plotnick has an excellent bedside manner- when he gave me my diagnosis, he broke it to me very subtly; as he's giving you a physical examination, he talks to you pleasantly about other things, Dr. Plotnick has a sense of humor as well, which helps to ease the appointment. I recommend Dr. Plotnick to everyone and anyone who asks me about my visits.

Unique...takes time to answer all questions in a way that is understandable. Very compassionate, especially after a not so good test result
