"Dr. Gruenstein is phenomenal.
I have never met a Doctor Who has been in the top of his field, and also made it easy for a patient to understand their situation. From his smile to his kindness to his easy explanations. I feel honored to be one of his patients. He is certainly not for 15 minutes revolving door type of doctor. They don’t unfortunately make doctors like him anymore."
