ISO Oxford Endocrinologist in Manhattan

December 18, 2008 2:11 PM

Looking for an endocrinologist recommendation in Manhattan (10019, 10128 preferred) who is in the Oxford Freedom Network.

I have a list of who takes Oxford Freedom, but I'm hoping for some personal recommendations, if possible. I've had some not-great doc experiences which just lead to me not going back -- not good for health, I know.

I need to move from my recent doctor (who I actually really liked!) because she's in the NYU Student Center and I'm not eligible to see her now that I've graduated and she doesn't participate with Oxford in her private office. Good bedside manner is a definite plus, this is non-urgent, I have ~ 2.5 months before I'm due for a refill on my meds and the originally scheduled follow up appt with my doc. That said, I'd like to start to find one now because I know of the waits for new patients, at times.

10019/10128 preferred for proximity to home/work - but anywhere in Manhattan is OK.

Thanks all!

Best answer: I see two different doctors (a general practitioner and a gastroenterologist) at Gramercy Park Physicians and have been very happy with everyone there. They take Oxford Heath also. They were referred to me by my hematologist/oncologist who treated my super-rare condition called Castleman's Disease.

Response by poster: Thank you both! Marking both as best, still open for recs. Will call during office hours to see if they're taking new patients.
