Dr Thau made me feel like l am the most important person in that room. He was very kind, gentle and caring, listened attentively to my fears etc and explained everything perfectly and simply to allay my fears. He is the best doctor in the world and l am very happy he is my doctor. He also has great wealth of knowledge.

Dr. Thau is great, genuinely is trying to help me resolve a long term problem. The only issue I have is the portal and no way for me to access him unless I have an appointment and no call backs

Dr Stephen Thau is a credit to his profession, a true asset to HHC, and my only hope is other Doctors model thier own behaviors after him.

My first visit and I liked Dr.Thau very much

5 out of 5 stars

We were grateful dr Thau spent time w/us explaining our diagnosis and next steps - we were surprised and devastated with our news and he was calm and great in explaining my sickness. The referrals he arranged called me within the next two days after I met with him. That's important that they took my situation a priority.

Dr Thau is as courteous as he is thorough. You might have to wait a bit but thats because he doesn't restrict patient care to a time limit. Instead he takes a very personal approach: listening, learning, and reviewing results with you thoroughly. He treats you by leveraging numerous specialties to diagnose - allergy, sleep, pulmonary. He is a very caring and comprehensive doctor.

thank you for your time and advise

5 out of 5 stars

I really like Dr Thau. I started seeing him a few years ago. Altho there was a long wait to see him, he spent a lot of time with me and I especially appreciated his empathy as learning and dealing with a serious pulmonary issue is extremely upsetting. He makes you feel very comfortable. It is a little hard to get an appt in a short period of time, but I'm willing to deal with that because he's such a good doctor.
