Siegler Samuel E II PA

I can conform all the issues raised in these other reviews: unacceptabllong waits, unprofessional and unfriendly staff, completely outdated practices and processes… stuck in the prior century. This place is perfect if you got lots of time to waste and nostalgia for the 80s. I’ve been here a couple of times now since it’s close to my house but will be looking for a new doctor. I couldn’t even get my prescription filled from Dr Siegler since the pharmacy told me his licenses with the state are expired!

Dr. Siegler is by far the worst doctor I’ve ever had the misfortune of interacting with. He is highly unprofessional. My first visit he comes in with bloodshot eyes and doesn’t even bother to introduce himself. The main reason I came in was because I had neck pain, but he insisted on giving me a full physical. This was understandable as I’d never visited him before. But then he didn’t even say anything about my neck pain during the whole appointment and I had to remind him, and then he discussed the issue out in the hallway in front of his office staff. He gave me painkillers and muscle relaxers and then said to come back in two weeks. When I go back I have to wait about 45 minutes to finally see him (meanwhile I hear him and his staff joking around in the hallway). Then he once again doesn’t even address my neck pain and says because it’s been feeling better he’s not worried about it (of course it’s feeling better, he has me drugged up). This was after I told him I didn’t feel like he was even addressing my concerns. He also curses, which I think is really unprofessional (I don’t generally have a problem with cursing, but I don’t think it’s appropriate in a professional setting). His goal seems to be to spend as little time with his patients as possible while getting them to come in for as many appointments as possible. I would not recommend him to anyone and would give zero stars if I could.

It’s a doctor’s office not a SPA. My family and I have always received great medical care AND results with Dr. Siegler. He tells it like it is and fixes you. If you want hand holding and a latte this is not the place for you.

My wife & I have been patients of Dr Siegler for 15+ years. 1^st, if you want a TV doctor like House or a Grey’s Anatomy Doc; Dr S. is not for you! However, if you want a doctor that is caring, smart and might be able to save your life like he did for me, look no further. On the few occasions that he has referred us to a specialist; they were excellent!
Waiting time always varies here & elsewhere: Mondays, Cold & Flu Season is going to be longer. Thats only common sense. (I notice the 3 bad reviews were all during Cold & Flu Season)
(Same thing applies to my kid’s Pediatricians: Guy near my house working for a big hospital’s clinic group is always at least 35 – 45 min late. Lady in Med Ctr working w/​same # Docs is 5 — 15 min? And It always seems like her ofc is busier?)
Yeah, I’ve seen the tear on the table & I also see new furniture was not just installed on NYE either! So, what? IMHO, It has nothing to do w/​being treated by the best Diagnostician in the city!
(New stuff has to be paid for? Are you going to buy it for him? I’m not either! He’s trying to support his family like me & you.) I admit it, I like him. The friends, I’ve referred to him like him too! (I bet it would be fun to have him come over to my house for dinner. Why? Because, he’s Not a pretentious jerk like some people wearing white costs can be.)
Remember! You need Grey Matter & not Grey’s Anatomy when you’re sick!
A guy w/​an MD & JD behind his name has a lot of brain power to help make those life & death decisions for you & your family.
Think about that!

Worst doctor and office ever. I waited an hour and a half before he saw me. I heard them laughing outside my room while I was waiting. Saw me for one minute. Made up a quick diagnosis and sent me on my way. Second time that I saw him was the exact same. Try to find street parking cause you’ll spend at least 2 hours just waiting.

This is my second, an hopefully final, visit here. The doctor spends perhaps all of 1 minute with me after being 80 minutes late, no exaggeration. He talks condescendingly, doesn’t inquire about anything, discusses sensitive information in front of drug reps, curses, and honestly seems like he could not care less about me. He is supposed to be my primary care doc, and I feel neither comfortable nor safe with that. Plus the rooms are unhygienic, see my photo, and the staff is unhelpful (with perhaps one exception). When it comes to patient care, I haven’t seen a worse physician.

He’s got his MD and JD… how cool is that?
I’ve been using Dr. Siegler for my health-​related needs for close to 4 years now and I have been happy every single time with him. I remember Christmas of 2009 I started coming down with something that seemed like strep or something. I called his office a couple of days past Christmas but still before NYE and managed to get a same-​day appointment. They got me in there, prescribed a Z-​Pak, and sent me on my way. I didn’t get to enjoy NYE as I would’ve preferred, but I was able to get some sleep finally! I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Siegler to anyone needing medical care.
