Dr Weinberg is very good at doctoring. He's a person you can trust to keep up to date and know what care options are available. His extensive experience makes implementing these care options a precious gift to his patients. He listens, and is more than willing to work through all options. His staff is remarkable. Really. Amazing the time and individual care they give to patients. Always available, and very helpful.

Dr. Weinberg was very friendly and professional. He helped me to understand my tests, cardiovascular status, additional tests needed, and steps we should take to improve my numbers. He also listened intently. I thought that he and his fellow (gentleman from Penn) were really tuned in. Dr. Weinberg gave me his card at the end of the appointment which was a nice gesture that felt like "welcome to our practice we look forward to helping you, call any time."

This was my second visit with Dr Weinberg. He described his long term plan for my treatment! Mid way between this and my previous annual appointment, Dr Weinberg requested (via nurse email), the status of my symptoms with daily blood pressure readings for a week! I like that he was keeping an eye on me and scheduling diagnostic tests between annual reviews! Unfortunately, MyChart timed out my sending of results.

Very thorough, he was very familiar with my health issues even before my first visit. Experienced, knowledgeable and communicative. Only reason for a "9" instead of a "10" is that I had to wait 12 months for an appointment. Too long.
