Moises M. Tenembaum, MD

I was unfortunate enough to have Dr. Tenembaum as my attending doctor at Forest Hills Hospital.
He was impossible to get a hold of during my three day stay. He ignored vital information provided to him by my general doctor who happened to be the doctor who referred me to him.
He took total and complete advantage of the fact that my condition wasn’t clearly identifiable. He sent over a total of 6 doctors so talked to me for 3min each empathizing that i should become their outpatient and handing me business cards.
He did not provide me with answers, and became very frustrated when asked questions he could not answer or had no knowledge of.
He was extremely unprofessional using any excuse to keep me in the hospital as long as possible. Down to the point of implying that I may need to remove my gallbladder even though the multiple unnecessarily tests he had run on me — all clearly showed that i did not have stones in my gallbladder, nor was there an issue with the function.
He also suggested that I had lymphoma after talking with the nurses that I wanted to be discharged.
This man is an unprofessional, scammer who is after nothing more then making money off who ever he comes across.
Know that he is not interested in your well-​being.
I was told horrifying things while under the «care» of this doctor that would make anyone deeply concerned. He caused so much stress for myself and my loved ones.
He seemed as if he was making every effort to find a reason to cut into me and remove a perfectly healthy gallbladder… but because he couldn’t do that he found other ways to cause me heavy financial stress.
On my last day i found out that after taking multiple CT scans, and Nuclear tests as well as being on antibiotics for unexplained reasons that all I had was the equivalent of a FLU LIKE VIRUS that required nothing more then bed rest!
After this we contacted the hospitals management who called on Dr. Tenembaum for and explanation, he acted as if he was not responsible for his failure but other doctors who spoke with me needed to be contacted.
Right… my attending doctors all of a sudden has no idea whats going on and why my family and I are unhappy with his care!
He became defensive showing his arrogance towards the management.
I implore … stay away from this «doctor», Save yourself the trouble and stress I went through. He is rude and careless and extremely unprofessional.
I regret not having done research on this «doctor» and not having reviews like this available at the time. If I had known I would have never went to him.
