We had such a wonderful experience here. My daughter needed stitches and the doctor saw us immediately, took incredible care of her, and made a stressful situation so much easier for our family. He was extremely kind, professional, and clearly very skilled. We are truly grateful for the compassion and generosity he showed. Highly recommend this practice.

If I could give zero stars I would, I brought my daughter per the recommendation of my pediatrician to advise me on a 2nd degree burn my daughter got from boiling water. Needless to say Dr. Scheinman advice was not only wrong but caused damage and excruciating pain to my daughter. He had changed her bandage dressing and topical management to something that allowed the bandage to get stuck to the large open wound. The following day she had a follow up at the burn clinic but they were unable to treat her due to the bandage being stuck to the open wound. It took over 3 hours of water treatment to remove most of the bandage but in the end we still had to pull it ripping some her skin. I was so upset for my child who was already experiencing much pain from her injury to be guided in such an ill manner bringing pain and extended her ability to seek treatment. DO NOT go to this doctor regarding any treatment for burns!

I was hospitalized due to a deep dog bite and my thumb was horribly infected. Dr. Scheinman came to the emergency room at LIJ to see me around 11 pm on Independence Day to clean and drain my wounds on my hand. He approached me in a friendly, calm manner and his bedside manner was fantastic. Despite the pain and anxiety, I was very relieved and comfortable with the procedure that he performed. He went above and beyond and even found and brought a chair somewhere in the ER for my mom so she could sit. I went to see him at his office in Lawrence for a follow-up appointment 2 days later. Office staff was so polite and the office itself was extremely clean and neat! I would highly recommend Dr. Scheinman!!! Thank you for being so thorough and incredible!

Horrible... Be careful of this man... He sent a bill $22000 for non surgical treatment when he treated my son's finger at Cohen Children hospital emergency room. He literally put one bandage to hold 2 fingers together in the emergency room. He is waiting for any innocent patients for treatment and send a crazy amount of bill later on to the patient.
