Dr. Breite is everything you would want in a doctor. I have been his patient for over 25 years. When he moved his Queens office to Manhattan, I decide to continue with him. I am willing to drive into Manhattan so he can treat me. He is a good doctor. First of all, He Listens! He is patient, careful, ver smart, never goes to extremes and has a wonderful bedside manner. Highly recommend him!

I recently moved back to NYC from Northern California and a very good friend suggested Dr Breite since I needed a physician, nothing specific although I have had my share of medical problems. I have visited Dr Breite twice, he has been very thorough, requesting blood and x-ray testing, and I have spoken with him on the phone. He is great! Welcoming, no-nonsense and obviously very knowledgeable. He also has a highly professional and friendly front-office staff that has proven extremely understanding in my case. . Such a relief to find a real "family doctor" practice in my new neighborhood. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Dr. Breite has been both my general MD and my GI doctor since 2003. He's attentive and smart, and remembers my history. The small practice guarantees his personal attention--not even a PA to take the info, (when I never know how much of it the doctor absorbs, while I become just a folder.)

I was diagnosed with Crohn's in my 20s And Dr. Breite has been with me for most of my adult life. Im now 51. You will not find a more compassionate and concerned individual. Dr. Breite listens to his patients and is always responsive during your most difficult times. Trust me, Ive had many!! His office staff is fantastic as well. Check in and appointment making are always a breeze. Wait times are always reasonable. I've been with him for 20+ years. Wouldnt want anyone else treating me!
