Dr. Jeffrey M Starkman, MD

Both I and my young son were worried about the anesthesia part for his surgery (more for the anesthesia than the surgery!) Dr. Starkman was very patient and took much more time than I'd ever expected to go over every detail of what was planned and to be expected including his plan to avoid problems (like being sick when waking up afterward). Jeremy had no problems at all. Dr. Starkman checked on us later that day as well. 10-stars if I could give it!

At times in life I have witnessed integrity prove unprincipled. This doctor stood genuine. To Dr Starmkam:You were in my world for but an hour Yet touched my spirit by more than daysWhen no one listened to my words, You took the time to actually hearWhen others saw one in the queue You advocated for an individualFor that I thank you.M. Angelou - People dont always remember what was said. . . but they always remember how you made them feel.

If you're looking for a specialist who will listen to your concerns, puts patients above politics, and will treat you like an individual and not just a medical case, in addition to possessing exemplary medical expertise, then this is the dr for you.

Thorough and concerned.........I would use and/or request Dr. Starkman again if given the option for any future aneshesia for surgery. I had no problems whatsoever after he did my anesthesia for my hernia operation.
