Thank you for the replies.....to the last poster....is this doctor located on staten island? I did a google search and he came up as having an office in staten island which would be great since thats where I live

It really depends on what insurance you have, there are many GIs in NYC that do not take insurance.

Making a generalization here but the best GIs in NYC are associated with University Hospitals like Mount Sinai, Cornell Weil IBD center and Columbia.

You will get the best care at these Hospitals and the GIs associated with them, they have the most resources and typically the best training and experience.

Drs Present, Marion and Chappman are probably the best known GIs in NYC and they are associated with Mount Sinai. They also do a lot of Clinical Research at their practice www.ibdgi.net .... I used to go to their practice but the GI that I have used for the last 7 years (dr Steinlauf) recently moved from their practice to the Cornell Weil Center. I definitely recommend him and he takes all types of insurances now.

Dr. James Marion out of mt. Sinai in Manhattan is excellent but he doesn't take insurance. At least when I saw him he didn't ... Maybe now he does.

I don't think his practice takes Insurance, I was just there in June. I always paid out of pocket for their services but to me they were worth the extra expense even though I had good insurance but my insurance company would not reimburse me. Dr Steinlauf left their practice in July and went to NYP Cornell Weill and now takes many types of insurance and it costs me $30 for a co-pay.
