Simon is good, but the rest of this office is awful. stay away. especially his medical assistant cynthia. she ignored all of my calls for 3 weeks because she didn’t want to fill out paperwork.

Ive been three times now and I found that he was friendly and made me feel comfortable, from the start. He is very knowledgeable and took time to explain things. He asked me to tell how I was feeling and took time to listen. When I had biopsies done he explained things along the way and made a scary thing feel safe. I always am made to feel like I am in very good hands. The office staff is always friendly and courteous. I am in the best hands there and drive from Glens Falls to have the expert care of Shimon Tolbosky. Id refer anyone to them!

This office is a nightmare. Stay away! I loved working with Shimon. He was always very thorough. I put up with the disorganized office to continue seeing him. I was out of town and had forgotten my medication. I called the office saying I needed some medication. His assistant refused because I needed an appointment. I was more than willing to make an appointment in two weeks. Since I was out of town I couldn’t make an appointment sooner. She still refused. I defended myself saying they can’t refuse to give me my medication. Just give me enough for the next two weeks and I’ll come in as soon as I get back. When I got back I was transferred to Dr Watsky without anyone telling me I was being transfer to another doctor. So unprofessional! Dr. Watsky is not as thorough as Shimon at all but besides that I tried making an appointment for over a week without anyone calling me back. I’ve given up on this office completely. Now I’ve been trying to have my medical records transferred for over a week. This office is no longer worth my time.

Very thorough, listens, and allows time for as many questions as youd like to ask. He was very knowledgeable about my thyroid condition and I feel I am in good hands from here on out!

Shimon is very thorough and takes time to go through the details. Through his eagle eye I was diagnosed early enough for my condition to get it treated and cured of symptoms. So grateful for him!

I was over 5 months pregnant and the dr tried to force me to get a biopsy. I even went in for the biopsy but started crying and couldn’t go through the process. My blood pressure rose and I couldn’t go through with the procedure. For women who’s been pregnant before you know how emotional and hormonal you can be while carrying a small human. So I chose to do the biopsy after birth. Needless to say today on March the 21st 2019 I called his office and a receptionist told me that he dropped me as a patient. They did not call me nor sent me a letter stating why he discharged me as a patient. I’m in the process of filling a complaint, also will speak to his head physician and also take it up with the board. He had an obligation to contact me to let me know why he no longer wanted me as a patient. He never gave me an incline that something was wrong and this came out of no where. I’ve been seeing an endocrinologist in Syracuse for 10 years since I was diagnosed and never had this issue. I’m not a rude or complicated patient so I’m completely caught off guard. He sneakily did what he did without an explanation. I am appalled and this has made me have no trust is doctors . If this is how he operates I would not recommend him to anyone. This is a shame!
