Fantastic experience! Dr. Sobel did a wonderful job of delivering some unfortunate news. He explained how, why, and what next. He looked at me. He listened. He provided guidance on what to ask or look for with the next specialist. That’s invaluable when the condition is new and unfamiliar. I would return to and recommend Dr. Sobel 100%!

The office is run in a very professional manner. When you walk in the door you are greeted by employee who signs you in. Your barely sit down and they are taking you back for the first process of your visit. Once that is done you are moved for the second process before seeing Dr. Sobol. Their system is smooth, and they don't have you waiting long.

Dr. Sobol has been an attentive, diligent and knowledgeable doctor to me for a few years. He recently had to share some difficult news with me and did so patiently and calmly while being informative without intimidation or hubris.
