Dr. Jonathan Teitelbaum, MD

Amazing! We are so happy we made the drive. Doctor was fantastic!

I saw this doctor back in 2003ish when I was 12. Told me and my mom that I should see a therapist because I was vomiting continuously for three months and lost 30lbs. He it was an eating disorder. I still don’t know why I was vomiting, I think severe constipation... but the way this doctor spoke to me had a long lasting negative impact.

He let my daughter suffer in pain trying to tell us nothing was wrong!!!! Thank god we didn’t give up and found a good doctor that is willing to help my daughter.

He treated us like we were beneath him and couldn't care less about my son. Made me feel stupid because I never tried the third drug he threw at my son, as it's an antidepressant but is supposed to help with IBS (not even sure that's what he actually has). Ended up trying the antidepressant and my son became constipated and depressed-like constant crying and not communicating. Still gets pain every day upon feeling the urge to poop to the point of him getting panic attacks, sweating, being unable to speak. Dr. Teitelbaum has no bedside manner and even makes snide remarks to you in front of your child. So frustrated!

Not a good gastrologist,thinks your child is imagining his symptoms.

I was a patient of Dr. Teitelbaum's for several years (until I was old enough that I had to switch). He diagnosed me with UC immediately, after another doctor had somehow missed it, despite performing a sigmoidoscopy. For the last couple years I have seen several different doctors after moving and trying to settle on a new one, and this has helped me appreciate how easy it was to work with Dr. Teitelbaum. Whenever I was sick, he would call me and talk to me as long as needed-he would always call again to follow up. I'm lucky if I can get a 5 minute conversation at the office with my current doctor! I will also add the Dr. T. is conservative with the meds he prescribes, avoiding the harsher drugs unless they're the only option.

I took my son to this Dr many years ago when he was 7, complaining of severe pain in the middle of his stomach. His comment was that no one gets pain right in the middle of their stomach and implied that it was all in his head. Unfortunately back then there were no pediatric gastro Drs in the area. Unfortunately this went on until my son was in his teens when I found another dr who was able to diagnose my son . A friend of mine brought her daughter to him and had a similar experience. I would not recommend this Dr to anyone. If ur child is sick take them to Robert Wood Hospital in New Brunswick.

Dr. Titelbaum is a wonderful caring doctor. He takes the time to speak with the child and the parent. He is very thorough. I highly recommend him. Because he is so in demand it can take a while to get an appointment, in my opinion (Unless it is an emergency, of course) it is worth the wait.

Ignored obvious diagnosis via biopsy because he thought my son's condition was too rare. Brought my child to CHOP and was diagnosed with the same condition which Dr. Teitalbaum said was too rare for my child to have. My son has been doing much better since he has been under CHOP's care.

He is VERY WELL EDUCATED and willing to do more research about your symptoms along with your previous health history. He is not quick to give medication or testing but once he thinks he knows every he needs to know about you he will gradually increase (testing/meds)
