Terrible MD. Does not care about his patients. Is arrogant and full of himself. Doesn't listen to people. Doesn't really care.

This guy not only has the experience, is a master at diagnosis. I am way impressed with his ability and the way he practices. He really cares about his patients.

This man is so condescending, especially to women, that I would never contact him again. And he seems very outdated when it comes to current medical thought/practice. 'My way or the highway' is his attitude. I really did not like anything about him. He is way too full of himself to be an effective advocate for his patients. He loves to hear himself talk. Plus, the clinic phlebotomist was eating in the lab before she drew my blood. She never washed her hands after and it came as no surprise that my lab results ended up being incorrect.

Dr. Gottlieb is impatient, doesn't listen, doesn't answer questions, is too busy telling you what a wonderful doctor he is to respond to your needs and questions.
