Testimonials for Bret Ostrager, DO

C.S.

"As I was seeking a primary care physician for myself after my return to NY, it became evident to me, after only a few interactions with Bret, that I would get the best primary care from him... I respected his skills and character so much I even referred my wife to him. Bret is truly an asset to the world of medicine. Colleagues thoroughly enjoy working with him and respect him tremendously. Patients adore him and have a great deal of faith and confidence in his clinical skill."

K.K.

"I have used other practicing physicians in the past but no one as wonderful as Dr. Ostrager. He is truly a wonderful practitioner and will always go above and beyond to make sure his patients have the best care provided by him and his office staff."

J.D. & B.D.

"Dr. Ostrager is very knowledgeable, caring and a good listener - he makes sure all our questions are answered and that we keep up with all our shots and tests."

E.T., A.T., S.T., & B.T.

"We deeply appreciate that you were always available to answer any and all of our questions."

P.J.

"I owe my good health to Dr. Ostrager. I find him to be an extremely competent doctor who has amazing bed-side manners. He is caring, professional and unbelievably knowledgeable. If it was not for Dr. Ostrager's essential medical knowledge, it would have taken a lot longer for me to have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis... I feel very lucky to have him as my primary care physician and cannot imagine using anyone else. I owe a lot to Dr. Ostrager regarding my well-being and am happy to have him in my corner."

E.C.

"I know my wife would not be with me today if it weren't for you. It has been your care and referrals that have sustained her... You have certainly made a difference in our lives and I do not hesitate placing my life in your hands. You have treated us like family; in fact that's the way I feel when I come into your office. You exemplify the finest qualities a person can possess. Your integrity and dedication to your profession is very evident and you take very seriously the Hippocratic Oath."

A.O.

"Dr. Bret Ostrager was recently named one of the top doctors in primary care on Long Island... Almost daily, he consults with specialists about some of his patients. Perhaps this is one reason he is considered a great diagnostician. He has saved my life twice, once seeing the early signs of a stroke and secondly for prostate cancer."

R.L.

"I will forever be grateful to Dr. Ostrager for the diagnosis, wisdom, support, and post op care he gave me. Had I not had such a conscientious doctor who noticed a simple anomaly in my PSA, I'm positive I'd not be in good health. It's cliché to say to say Dr. Ostrager saved my life, but I truly believe he did."

J.S.

"Dr. Ostrager makes you feel special when he takes time out of his busy day to call you personally with the results of a test. He truly cares about you and your health."

P.E.

"Dr. Bret Ostrager is consientious, respectable and always listens to his patients' symptoms and stories. He gleans his treatment from the oral history he hears. The doctor thinks out loud and plans the course of action WITH the concerned party. He is extremely thorough in all his actions and always calls promptly with test results. Dr. Bret Ostrager makes it his business to collaborate with all other physicians involved in his patients' care. He is truly dedicated to his profession."

L.V.

"I just want to say how pleased I am to have Dr. Ostrager as my primary Doctor. He alwasy puts me in the right direction and takes the time to call me and go over my results. He is very knoledgeable but yet explains to me my results in terms that I will understand. I have recommended my family and friends to him and will continue to do so."

L.S. & C.S.

"Other doctors cannot in any aspect compare to you. Besides the fact that you are totally dedicated to your patients, plus your genuine concern, understanding, and knowledge is unbeatable."
