How likely are you to recommend Dr. Scheinerman?
I would use the words Super Hero to describe Dr. Scheinerman. Bypass Surgery are two of the most frightening words to hear! Doctor Scheinerman put me and my entire family at ease before, during and after my surgery. He was present professionally, medically, mentally and emotionally!! From my first visit to the actual Bypass Surgery, he ensured that I received the best care available. As the Chairman of Cardiovascular & Thoracic Surgeons for Lenox Hill Hospital, he is literally saving lives daily! So yes - SUPER HERO!!
