The first time I met "Dr" Bruce Sobel, I was at his office for a $400 immigration physical. The staff was rude and unhelpful and I was treated as a dollar sign. At that visit, I brought with me records of my past illnesses and immunizations, so they don't have to vaccinate again. Although my records showed clearly that I had a certain disease as a child, he insisted he still had to vaccinate against it because of immigration standards. I found out later from a different doctor that it was a bold lie. Therefore he loaded me with chemicals against a disease I got as a kid and got over, just so he can make more money.Every time I went to see him afterward, I waited for at least 1 hour before they brought me to the back in an exam room where I waited for another half an hour for Dr Bruce to come in. When I questioned the staff about the long wait, they snapped at me saying they had an emergency.

As far as lab results, they NEVER call you. Even after multiple messages, they don't call back.

Dr Bruce barely spent 5 minutes with me in the room, didn't listen to any of my input and didn't care about me being involved in my health care. His approach is always to load the patient up with drugs and doesn't ever consider another approach. 'He only cares about making money and more money. Dr Bruce has ALWAYS pushed the most expensive drug on the market to me or my husband. He prescribed $60 antibiotics and $20 drops for swimmer's ear. Luckily, I didn't listen to him and went to a specialist who solved the problem with a couple of Ibuprofen for 5 days.
