Urologists in NYC area

Post by Hafegeo »

Since I'm leaning toward getting a second opinion.....can anyone recommed a urologist in the NYC area or Westchester County who is particularly well-versed in IC, CPPS, etc.? I know Dr. Robert Moldwin is not too far out on Long Island, but I heard from someone that he doesn't accept insurance.

If you'd rather reply privately, feel free.

Try Dr. Y. Sam Litvin in Long Branch, New Jersey. He is familiar with the Stanford/Wise-Anderson Protocol. His practice is called Shore Urology.

I've tried all the tops in NYC at least a dozen over the years.

Two best are Robert Moldwin at LIJ, simon hall at Mount Sinai

Kudos also to David Kaufman, though he is a pr**k.

Actually, I did wind up seeing Dr. Kaufman and have found him quite helpful so far -- much more so than my previous doctor.

I realize this may be off the track a bit, but I'm going to see a chiropractor today to see if they can work out some of theback/hip pains. I will report back when I'm done.

anyone try this or have any luck?
