I use Dr. Styler. corner 14th & 48th. Wait time could get long as he has typical BP office hours but overall I'm very happy with him. He usually responds right away unless it's kind of a shtus, then you have to bug him. I switched to him 7 yrs ago from Dr. Schon on 65th and Bay Parkway. He was also very good but he retired and left only women practicing in the office. My husband doesn't want a female doc. for my boys.
Dr. Styler is a great doctor as he's very laid back and kind of lets u run the show if tha's what type of person u are. I know someone who couldn't get down to him erev Yom Tov so he made a house call. Also I know of 2 cases where he diagnosed a patient over the phone and told them they needed a specific surgery immediately and both times he was rght. In another case, the child had come in from Israel where the doctors had told him there is nothing wrong with him. Dr. Styler felt his stomach and called Hatzolah to bring him to the emergency room for an appendectomy. The surgeon later said had he gotten there 1 day later his appendix would have ruptured.

I use Dr. Galina Gershkovich. she's on 18th ave (east 3rd) (across from cafe K). she's the best. practically no wait time. the longest I've waited is 1/2 hour. nice office. when not in the office you can beep her, and she responds right away. she's a great diagnostician. small practice, so your not just another patient. she remembers everything!

Just while we're on the topic of dr's in the area, anybody use Bulmash on 16th av? I remember going to him a couple of times as a kid, now considering using him for mine and would like a parent's point of view!

BNM, where is Diamond?

Ive been by Bulmash since I was 2 (low 30's now). great diagnostician, his nephiew works there now too, feldman. also great. I used to wait over an hour every time, lately I've been in and out in 30-45 min. they're open 9-4, he has eve hours too. I know ppl who on yom tov have gone to his house (if he's in town) I'm very happy as is the rest of my family.

You have to think of your priorities and medical philosophy.
I am more into natural approaches to medical issues and I needed a ped that respected that.
I also needed a doctor that has evening and weekend hours for well visits as well as sick ones and a doctor that I can reach by phone at all times for a consultation.
Most importantly, I wanted someone who is a great diagnostician.

I found that for my family Dr. Bulmash is best. By the way, he sees my kids into adulthood.

His number is 8518080 He is on 16th ave bet 39 & 40th st

same here. Office staff is very nice and understanding. However, I believe it is a closed office. You have to know someone who works there to get in.

Dr. Susan Schulman is definitely the top pediatrician. She is the author of "Understanding Your Child's Health, a must read for every new mom! She's on 9th & 48th Street Here's her number (718) 436-3705.

Dr. Diamond's office is fantastic too. The wait is an average of 15 minutes. it's a cheerful, clean, kid friendly office. It is extremely professionally run & the nurses are top notch & kind. They have 3 doctors there, Dr. Diamond & 2 associates, Dr. Klein & Dr. Zyskind.

BTW, the wait by Bulmash is an average of 2 hours & he is an alarmist.

Good luck!
