Dr. Nathaniel E Lebowitz, MD

Trustworthy. Absolutely brilliant. So very caring. I have been seeing Dr. Lebowitz for many years. He is a most exemplary human and doctor. He has helped me markedly improve the quality of my life medically, mentally and emotionally. Dr. Lebowitz is very thoughtful and thorough in his practice. He has been a north star in guiding me toward other exceptional doctors, therapists and healthy living choices. .... I am so very grateful to have you in my corner, Dr. Lebowitz. Much love and respect. Sam Meltzer

Poor wait time. Had to wait over an hour past the scheduled appointment time.

Dr. is lacking in punctuality and professionalism. He talks a good game and is knowledgeable, but appears marginally concerned about his patients from my own personal experience and this margin is getting wider each year (burnout?) Have heard stories of him being 3 hours late and then apologizing profusely. Often fails to follow-up in providing lab prescriptions, not writing the prescriptions on time, resulting in a patient arriving for a lab with no lab prescription completed, which can result in no lab being done if the doc is not available. Even with established patients with repeat labs, he Likes to see the patient first, then order the labs in the appt., requiring two visits to get labs and feedback done when it could more efficiently be done in one visit where the patient gets face to face feedback on the labs. This results in additional billing cost and time, even though the labs are the same for each visit. He may review the lab without a visit, making a cursory… analysis in 5 minutes, then handing it over to his secretary while you are there, not saying a word to the patient, thus depriving the patient of all those insights that others rave about. Often makes promises he cannot deliver such as promising to do something, e.g. write a prescription, then never doing it, not contacting the patient, and not informing his secretaries, who are usually in the dark as to what he is doing. He may be embarrassed by his neglect of the patient and would prefer to just avoid the issue. If you can get an appt. with the Dr., you will have to wait 4-6 months which appears to be consistent to his dilatory response to patient requests. These problems, delays, and failure to follow up have gotten worse over the years after the practice was purchased by Hackensack University Medical Center. He may be a good Dr. to some, but treatment delayed is treatment denied and ignoring patients is a guaranty this Dr. will have more urgent care patients in the future as he is less able to practice preventive medicine, At times his failure to contact a patient and answer an inquiry by phone or in person in the office is grossly unprofessional and counterproductive to being a health provider. About half the time, he fails to return after hour calls when he is the on-call Dr., unless you are about ready to head out to the ER or having a crisis. No preventive or proactive medicine here, so be skeptical about what you hear. Buyer beware. If you are looking for a Dr. who will be there for you and not ignore you, look elsewhere. Medical care delayed is healthcare denied. This review is only for this Dr. and does not apply to other Drs. in the practice. Good luck.

Dr. Lebowitz is one iof those hard to find Dr's. Very proffesional and caring. He really spend the time with you explaining everything and trys to give you the bext care he can possibly can as if you were indee one of his family member. I've been seen Dr. Lebowitz fro many years and he has not changed. He's also my husband's Dr. now and i have nothing negative to say about him. He is an amazing cardiology. Right on the spot when he diagnoses his patients. Thanks Dr. for all your dedication!

Extremely competent and caring.His demeanor and the care he renders are top notch.

Smart, informed, caring and responsive. He uses tests I had never heard of and my life has improved markedly under his care. Cardiologists simply don't come better.

Following an hour long comprehensive introductory office visit, I was convinced that Dr. Lebowitz will be responsive to my needs, and able to guide me in improving my condition. He is articulate and patient, and his abilities to synthesize results of various research studies indicate his own professional growth and intellectual development.
