Today I went to Dr. Steinmetz because I felt like I was coming down with something. He is always a pleasure to visit weather Im sick or just having my yearly physical. He did all the tests and e scribed meds to help me feel better. The staff is always friendly. He is a gentlemen and is right on target with prognosis. Im so glad he is located in Brooklyn and will continue to use this doctor for the rest of my life.

I have been going to Dr. Steinmetz for over 25 years. He is always professional, kind and he listens carefully. I have received excellent care. My only complaint is that the wait time can sometimes be long, but I suspect that is the case in most medical offices. I have, on occasion, been the patient who needs to be squeezed in for an emergency visit, so I don't judge too harshly.
