Robert Meyerson MD

I saw Dr. Meyerson several times recently after I tore a muscle in my knee. He spent time carefully explaining the results of my MRI and various courses of action. I was happily surprised that he immediately discouraged surgery as an option and instead encouraged a more conservative course of physical therapy. Physical therapy seems to have done the trick so I appreciate Dr. Meyerson’s approach. I would not hesitate to go back to him in the future if the need arises.

Dude is basically the worst doctor I’ve even encountered. Wish I’d seen these reviews first. I told him I’ve had muscle problems and specifically knee issues for the past year, described them, told him I’ve done physical therapy at home after looking up the common exercises. His reply: «Your symptoms are very common… what exactly did you expect me to do?», before telling me he would not give me an x-​ray or MRI. Told him I get frequent shoulder dislocations for no reason, including in my sleep. His response: «Maybe you’re just loose.» Called the hospital afterwards and complained, but I doubt they’ll do anything. Just don’t go to him. Or if you do, please tell him how much of a d*ck he is while you’re there.

I was made to feel like an idiot, he actually told me to stop turning up places complaining when I stated that I did not want another MRI due to the fact I have had 3 in 3 years. His advise to me was to stop running and just do some exercise on the bike. I just could not believe it, my doctor recommended I go see a specialist, due to the fact I have had this issue for so long. When I told him about my knee cap issue he actually laughed and said it sounded ridiculous until I explained it was a surgeon who had diagnosed this. Then he told me I just need to stop impact exercises, stretch my hamstrings and do weighted leg exercises. I explained that I do yoga and crossfit, I back squat more than my body weight and have flexible hamstrings, he said do you want an operation as that is your only other option. Arrogant would have been nice. Unless you are one step away from an amputation or limping don’t go see him, there are too many other doctors in NYC.

absolutely flippant and casual. Let the nurse examine me made a joke of everything. Does not inspire confidence.
