Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Patient and understanding! Wonderful physician!

Dr. Breit is the most thorough and knowledgeable physician that I use. He has a careful but effective approach to the issues that I have had with my endocrine system. He also spends as much time as you need to explain all the details of his diagnosis and treatment plan. Plan to visit him well in advance because he has a long list of patients that want to see him.

Dr Breit was a good dr at one time . Now he is rude and impossible to get an appt with . My daughter was seeing him for 2 years . He makes it impossible to get an apportionment abd when I spoke to him over the phone he was dismissive and made it seem he was doing us a favor by seeing his patient . His excuse was he had a flood in his office . It took over 3 months to get an appointment and I actually had to ho into the office in person because they staff never called back for schedule appointments . I would stay away from this office . It’s a frustrating experience !

Always professional, knowledgeable, willing to talk about diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Breit has been my physician for almost 13 years, and I truly believe without his skills and care in treating my long neglected Thyroid diagnosi, I would not be here today.

He in an incredible doctor with knowledge about even the most difficult endocrine issues. He spends a tremendous amount of time with his patients answering every question. People may get frustrated because they have to wait but I would always prefer a doctor who invests in his patients rather than one who shuffles people out without answers. I trust him implicitly.

time management is terrible. Great Dr. we really seemed to bond. But after the open heart surgery , the surgeon said don't go back to the medications until you see your doctor. I couldn't get a call back or see him for 4 months. I had to get a new doctor to deal with the issues. Pity, I really think he is good, but out of the way and always 1 to 4 hours later than the scheduled appointment.

First of all, it took 4 months to get an appointment. He promised to call me with results before the weekend. I was frantic by Monday. I called and left a message but called back a couple more times hoping to get a live person. The doctor called me back and said, "I heard you were calling off the hook." I said, "I was scared." He said, "If was serious you would be dead already." A few days later, a staff member to call me and tell me that I have a mass. That was it :(

First let me start by saying Dr Breit is a great doctor but not worth the headache. I initially turned a blind eye to the obvious issues with time management and way the staff handles scheduling but it is ridiculous! My appt. was originally scheduled for 3:15pm but I was called saying the Dr is running behind (shocker). I waited for well OVER an hour before leaving because there was still another person ahead of me which would be another hour. Why not just schedule less patients in a day.

Just like others state, Dr. Breit is an excellent doctor and I have been going to him for at least 7 years, but no more. No one in the office is respectful of appointment times. If you schedule an appointment for 1, expect it to be at 4 instead. The staff is terrible, he needs poeple that can actually do his scheduling correctly and let the patient's know of issues. I have been trying to get my records for months to no avail. It's too bad the office is so bad, he really is good.

After being a patient of Dr. Breit's for 10 years I was forced to move on. Not only did he cancel my appointment I waited four months for, his office staff then told me they gave me away an appointment and couldn't reschedule another for 6 months. I am on several medications that are supposed to be monitored. The last two appointments (a year apart) I had to call five times (just for an appointment) I got a return phone call. Save some time and frustration, find another endocrinologist.

Dr. Breit is above and beyond one of the best doctors. He is incredibly smart and knows how to quickly diagnose and treat even the really difficult endocrine disorders. He has one flaw, his staff is horrendous. Rude and disrespectful to patients both on the phone and in person. They do not listen or follow up and that’s if you can even get them to answer the phone. They do not manage his time in a way that benefits him or the patients. He needs an entire overhaul of his office staff.

The doctor is amazing hence why I keep coming back, but his staff is the worst, rude, disrespectful and uncaring. Dr. Breit needs to wake up before he loses his patients.

I was told that there was a 3 week wait for an appointment , when my doctor called to ask for an earlier appointment because the thyroid is quite large she was told the same thing. I wonder if the doctor knows how bad his staff is, I sure his staff made the decision on there own and didn't even ask the doctor. Who is Running his office. Not very professional sad!!!!!!!

Dr. Breit is an excellent Endocrinologist. He is very thorough and spends time with his patients. With that said the wait time is long once you get there, but it's worth it to me. You do have to wait a long time to get an appointment and his staff isn't the friendliest, but they do what they are supposed to. For me, it's all about the skill of the doctor and if they are able to take care of you when you are really sick and I have complete faith in Dr. Breit for that.

I can begin to say enough about Dr. Breit. He is compassion and extremely through. He takes his time reviewing your lab results, explaining your condition and treatment options. Yes, the wait time is often prolonged, but he will spend enough time with you to insure that you are receiving superior medical care. And he's soooo funny!!!!

Due to his unprofessional uncaring staff, I have to leave look for another doctor. He just lost about 5 referrals due to his incompetent staff. You need to see the doctor, in April I was told we haven't done our summer schedule, I called 2 weeks later, and now the whole summer is filled with appointments, now I can't get one. It's disgusting. How are staff can ruin a doctor's business, and shame on the doctor for not knowing what's going on.
