Susan B. Zweig, Md's Online Review Report Card

Excellent doctor, kind, smart and incredible bedside manner

Dr. Zweig is the best Endocrinologist on the planet, Period. I have been a patient for over 7 years and am very thankful I was referred to her office. I have complex Endocrine issues and she had it all covered. Dr. Zweig is smart, caring, thoughtful, academic and innovative. I am in much better shape as a result of her special care. Thomas S. PS: Terrific staff ; nice, helpful, fast and efficient.

It’s always an uncomfortable experience to see Dr. Zweig. I became to dread the appointments with her a few days in advance but only kept seeing her because I didn’t bother to find another doctor. She amazingly can always find a way to tell me I’m dumb without actually saying it at almost every appointment (extremely condescending). Now that I’ve found a new doctor I finally don’t have to come back.

Wonderful caring staff...very knowledgeable and professional!

Competent doctor with personality issues. I find her patronizing and overbearing.

Competent doctor with personality issues. I find her patronizing, abrasive and more interested in directing than listening.

Her ability to lie is astounding. Her office staff is amazing. Her ability to communicate with patients, not so much. Her ability to fit facts to her opinions thinking that her patients are less than smart and can't read was astounding. Lastly, when a doctor will lie to try and talk you into a procedure, you should run quick. When a doctor has one foot out the door to private practice and treats NYU patients like an afterthought, you should also worry. Overpriced, and for that fact alone, you would think you were getting amazing. You're not. Run.

I have been a patient of Dr. Zweig's for many years. She is very thorough, kind and straight forward. She also understands that medicine and especially endocrine issues are not always a one size fits all approach. She listens to a patient's concerns and makes you feel like you're not alone in your journey. She worked with me to find the right dose of medicine that would treat my condition with minimal side effects. My only complaint is it can be hard to get an appointment but that's very common with doctors in NYC from my experience.

I attend visits with my father who has English as a second language & mobility issues. There was a technical issue that I was trying to assist with and she kept accusing me of being "angry". I don't believe I was angry, I was just discussing with her that my father's glucose monitor results have been accessed by two people in her office (an RN & NP) & she kept saying we were not sending any results to her. I don't even know how to send those results to an RN or NP alone, we just clicked the link that was sent to my father's email and connected as the directions stated. I was trying to say that isn't it possible that if two other people in her office can access the results, that maybe the info is in my father's chart for her review? Instead she would talk over me and say "you're daughter is very angry" to my father as if I wasn't there. I can't believe how rude someone is to the person who is helping a patient and also trying to make the doctors life easier with technology.

I saw Dr. Zweig for over nine years and couldn't speak more highly of her or the care she provides. It breaks my heart to no longer be able to see her since I left New York. Dr. Zweig is incredibly patient, kind, direct, caring, and in my case, creative. She's always quick but never makes you feel rushed, and really get's to know her patients as individuals and build trust. She's always open to questions and concerns and is fast to try a new approach.
