I've been patient of Dr. Ornstein for the past 6 years. This doctor saved my life! I was on the bring of dying and after being unsuccessfully treated by 4 other doctors for 6 years, who made my condition worse, Dr. Ornstein, diagnosed me correctly and found a perfect treatment for me and my medical conditions. When I came to him 6 years ago, I was under 82lb, weak, having 4-to-5 grand seizures per week and hospitalized so often now, I don't experience seizures, I'm 105 lb, strong athletic woman. Yes, it's true that I have to wait a little bit long but that begs the question: would you prefer to be seen by the incompetent doctor who will see you on time or to be treated by an excellent doctor for whom you have to wait little bit more? I usually never write reviews but when I saw some of the people (who I don't believe to be real patients of Dr. Ornstein), I felt compelled to get the record straight! In my 6 years visiting his office, I never heard one single patient of his ever complaining about anything! Everyone I saw in his office just like me love our doctor and, we don't mind waiting for most brilliant, honest, hardworking and most carrying doctor! Thank you Dr. Ornstein not only for saving my life but for saving so many others lives!

I will forever be grateful for Dr. Ornstein saving my life! After spending years visiting 6 doctors, it was Dr. Ornstein who diagnosed me correctly and based on that he assigned me to treatment that helped me to get back to living a healthy life. Yes, it's true that you have to wait longer in his office to see him but I will wait as long as I have to because Dr. Ornstein is the best doctor in Brooklyn! God Bless Dr. Ornstein!

I am very surprised to see lots of negative reviews, especially 1-star. It's very suspicious because I have my own experience of seeing Dr. Ornstein and am completely disagree with the other who left the 1-star review. I don't think they're trustful since none of them provide specifics. The only thing which bothers me about this office is the wait time. If you're very lucky (like "winning-the-powerball-jackpot-lucky" type), your wait time might be about an hour, with 3 hrs on average. With great bedside manner and professionalism, Dr. Ornstein and the office deserve 5-stars review even considering the totally unreasonable wait time.

I think it’s absolutely insane. Why would you make appointments for literally everyone for the same time. Literally sit here for HOURS every time. Never fails. Ever. You can come in for your spot @1 and there will still be people from 11 there waiting to see the doc. Nobody has 4 hours to see the doctor. Last time here.
