Difficult to understand what he is talking about. We will not seek his help again.

Says little and looks depressed. We’ll seek another doctor.

Dr. Wainer always takes the time you need and is very knowledgeable. His staff is very friendly and helpful. He has been my doctor for more than 35 years. I highly recommend him.

I was in need of a new primary care doctor and over and over Dr. Wainer’s name was recommended. I’m so glad I found him. My issues are somewhat complicated but he has been able to keep me healthy. He’s one of the most caring, thorough and knowledgeable doctors I’ve ever known. All doctors should strive to be like him.

Dr. Wainer is a total professional. He is always very thorough in his examinations and unlike most doctors nowadays takes the time to know his patients and answers any and all questions thoroughly and patiently. His staff is great. Never have to wait and they are 100% on the ball with any questions, requests I may have.

Dr Wainer and staff are great. Dr Wainer is very caring and understanding. He listens to you and does not rush you out of the exam room. He is a wonderful primary care doctor that truly cares. The ladies in the office are on the ball, and always ready to help.

Difficult to understand. Appeared rushed, half heading out the door when he was attempting to explain my medical problem. Won’t return.

Out of touch with state of the art. Beset by personal problems.

Sorry to say I couldn’t believe he was a doctor. To state that he’s peculiar I’d be putting it mildly. He doesn’t communicate well at all. Good luck to anyone counting on him for medical assistance.

Not the helpful doctor I hoped for. Has a small local practice but I won’t be one.
