Steven B. Andelman's Online Review Report Card

Terrible experience! My wife had a tumor, that they said was a considered cancer. At first they considered it an emergency so they wanted a biopsy. After not hearing from them in 2 months I called and inquired why they haven’t called in regards to the emergency biopsy. They said they don’t think they need to do it again so I shouldn’t worry about it?! A 3cm tumor that is still growing, that they considered cancerous. I should worry about it?! He would even meet with me to discuss what to do next. Pure incompetence, I do not recommend this doctor at all.

I just had my first appointment with Dr. Andelman and was so pleased with my visit. Dr. Andelman was kind and personable. He took time to listen to me and answer all of my questions. He even asked at the end of my appointment…..”is there anything else I can do for you?” The appointment was not rushed and I was comfortable with him. I have to add that Jessica (administrative staff) was a bonus to this office. What a warm and kind person. She, too, couldn’t do enough for me. I am so pleased to now be a patient with the office of Dr. Andelman and his staff.

I just had emergency surgery, not my first. He was the surgeon on call on a major holiday weelend. I should also say that I am in healthcare and have met alot of surgeons but not many like him. He is kind and has patience. Extremely informative. Will answer any question and takes the time. Most important is that he has an excellent reputation as a surgeon. I looked at his reviews when I got home because I was so impressed I was lucky he was the surgeon on call. I would recommend him to anyone with confidence.

Best surgeon without a doubt ??????

Dr. Andelman has provided me with exceptional care. I was referred to him and he quickly scheduled my surgery. When I had concern he was able to move my procedure up a week. He completed the biopsy and quickly called with results as soon as they were available. The news was not good, but he was great, direct and to the point (exactly what I prefer) and already had an action plan. He had contacted additional specialists and appointments were in the works. I was also quickly scheduled for an additional surgery and all referral appointments. Dr. Andelman will continue to be my first choice for surgeons.

He tells you the truth, doesn’t like to waste his time or yours, and believes in best practice. You can tell he really does care about his patients and provides detailed information. I would recommend. I was going through a lot personally related to my concerns during my visits but Jess at the front desk was also always very professional, patient and kind.

I was very unsure when going in, but Dr. Andelman was very understanding and reassuring. This was my first time with Dr. Andelman and I was very impressed. He was thorough and efficient and gave me his full attention. I barley had to wait, and was surprised at how fast it was

I had hernia surgery this morning and Dr. Steven B Andelman performed this surgery and he was fantastic!! It is now 8.00 pm the same day and I am running around with no pain medication. Thank You Doctor! You have a new fan!!!

Dr Andelman treated me at St Luke’s Hospital over the course of a week in 2018. I had an abscess that was difficult to treat. His suggestion always had been an interventional radiology procedure but that department was not on board. He said he could do an open surgery but it would come with the risk of further infection and lengthy rehab. The radiology procedure had little or no side affects. He fought on my behalf with the radiology team and also sought out additional opinions outside St Luke’s where such a procedure could be done. Ultimately, the radiology department relented and did the procedure (twice) and I was soon home and recovering. Dr Andelman can be trusted to do what’s in the patients best interest. As a patient that is a reassuring and I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Adelman is thorough, staff is easy to work with. I would suggest Dr. Adelman to all my friends and family.
