My absolute favorite doctor. He spends as much time as I need with me. He comes into the exam room prepared having already reviewed my records about anything that has happened to me since I last saw him. He is always trying to look at ways to improve my health and is thoughtful and so pleasant in all conversations. His demeanor comforts me. I wish my PCP was like him.

Dr. Effron is very thorough, takes his time with me, listens to me, explains things and wants the best for me. When we requested to see his regular nurse, ***, she came in and talked to us, as we feel like family and wanted to know about her family. It is like getting a Christmas letter to find out what is going on in the person's life, as you only see them once a year.

He listened carefully to my concerns. He answered both my questions and those my wife had. My wife was very happy to hear good things about my condition. He is my heart specialist and he feels he only needs to see me once a year.

I couldn't be happier with this specific physician. He is accessible. We can chit-chat so I'm comfortable with what's he's going to be telling me. And ... He's given me a great suggestion, in terms of making a change in my Primary Care doctor. In short, he's a MENCH!

Dr. Effron is part of my medical team. I always feel uplifted when I leave his office as his explanations are excellent. I am lucky to be in good health and don't need a lot of care. If I did need more guidance I know Dr. Effron would be the go to person to ask regard heart issues.
