Dr. Kenneth Frederick Langer, MD

Experience was great, check in was easy, seen the same day, looking forward to getting my health care needs taken care of by him

Had TRUS guided prostate biopsy, Dr. told me that pain and recovery would be minimal. During procedure, after almost blacking out and vomiting on core seven, his statement was "that region of the prostate is difficult to numb"; after the procedure I stated "that was miserable" and his comment was "you should be happy that you had me". Very conceited, very unwilling to engage in bi-directional dialog; seemed to push his herbal products and I felt was too quick to recommend expensive procedures. After my last visit, while walking out of the office, my wife turned to me and stated "he is very cold, I hope that you are not going back to him". Dr. Langer seems to be a well educated and capable doctor, HOWEVER, when you are dealing with a potentially life threatening situation you will want someone who can communicate effectively and honestly. There are many choices out there for urology services, based on my experience(s) I would not recommend Dr. Langer or Cheasapeake… Urology. Additional - The front office staff seems very nice, the sign in procedure is miserable, and the back office financial is miserable. Recommendation, DO NOT pre-pay for anything in advance of your procedures, force them process through insurance.

I am a young man who is suffering from a very confusing, uncomfortable problem unusual to someone my age of 33. I noticed during the very first doctors visit his rough treatment and bedside manor. I found myself in pain after unlike other examinations of the same type I have had. He was very quick to recommend unnecessary name brand prescriptions and even name brand herbal medicine that he was very clearly pushing/selling for a company (over twice the cost of the same exact stuff I could get at an organic market). For work medical leave purposes I needed to have paperwork faxed and his office tried to charge me $25 to send it. I contested the fee when they sent over incomplete information and they gave it back, but they had to send it to my place of work 4 times over a 4 month period to get it correct. Their billing department made arrangements for monthly payments then each month took double the originally agreed amount. I called them and told them to stop all auto payments and… I would handle it myself after having the double payment reversed a few times. All in all, it was a very disappointing experience and I am still unwell, but I have a much better doctor who has treated me like a human being from day one. Live and learn.

Switched to another doctor, now I understand how bad my experience was with Dr. Langer. He needs to be a human being first. He would not come to see me in at the hospital in the emergency room with a 9 mm kidney stone. And when I tried to make an appointment as soon as possible, he couldn't see me for 10 days. I found a new doctor recommended by my primary care physician, he made an appointment within the same day. Dr. Langer works very harshly as well, after each procedure I had, apart from a lot of pain, I either ended up in the emergency or with a UTI. I would never recommend this doctor to anyone.

Seeing Doctor Langer was a God Send.

Ive had some problems with a different urology group and changed to this pratice. I have nothing but good things to say.Please use this group they are wonderful.

I've seen him about 2 years following bladder cancer. He's very competent, professional and serious when need be, and just a friendly, personable guy all around during visits. I also appreciate the fact that when I mentioned discomfort he remembered and discussed a different approach with me at my next visit. His staff is also great, especially his assistant, she's the best!

Smart Doc knows his stuff! Very down to Earth. Highly recommend!
