Dr. John Louis Hochberg, MD

totally incompetent, rude, keeps a patient waiting without regard to time, should be ashamed to say he is a doctor

Dr. Hochberg treated me after a car accident. He not only failed to make an accurate diagnosis, he nearly killed me with an overdose of Dilantin. It is my case he was disciplined for by the State of NJ. He gave me an extremely high dose of Dilantin and didn't even catch his mistake when the pharmacy called to double check. When I ended up in the hospital for a week with Dilantin toxicity he told the medical review board my mother was a nurse (she sold furniture for a living). He is a dangerous doctor that should be avoided at all costs.

Last I heard was after being operated on and the Dr. disappeared from the office. My files were a mess and half of them were lost. Had two surgeries after which I had to see a specialist because of post-op problems, during this surgery it was found that the prior surgery, (1st surgery), was incomplete which caused much pain, suffering and anguish, and the procedure that was being performed to correct this did not help, so I suffered. Also, thought he retired. His latest office accidently sent me noticification that he was retiring.?! Also, I think it very unprofessional of a physician when a physician is called to his office for an emergency, for a patient he operated on, and when the physician walks in states to his staff, "what's (so and so's) problem, now?!" After $4000 cash up-front, patients' become problems. Believe there's a lot more, but I do not wish to start to become any more upset about about my disabilities, than I already have been, everyday of my life for the last… 10 years.
