Blessed to get in with Dr. Kushner several years ago, when my primary doctor left his practice. He is amazing, brilliant and a lovely bedside manner. His staff is wonderful. I cannot say enough good about Dr. Kushner, his staff and his PAs

My family and I have been going to Dr. Kushner for 20+ years. I love the fact that he treats my whole family with patience and care. He explains things to you in a way you can understand and listens to your concerns. He will offer different options and explain the pros and cons, and then he will listen to you and create a plan that will make sense to follow. He does teach residents on Wednesday, so that is the one day you can't get an appointment for him, but they have other doctors or nurses that can be seen on that day if needed. He has been on the Delaware Today Top Doc list many times and I agree with them!

Dr. Kushner has been my doctor for more than 20 years. He ALWAYS is patient, kind and listens to my concerns. He is not quick with a pill to cure all...he evaluates and tries methods that may not need medicine. I like the fact that his suggestions are for ME and not just a "global" suggestion. He knows me, he listens to me, and he definitely cares about his patients!
