Patient Reviews
Mar 09, 2021
I have been going to Dr. Scheckter for several years now. I have COPD and emphysema and he has been treating me for this for these conditions. He is very patient, kind, and considerate.Personally I wouldn’t go anywhere else I have been to several pulmonologist prior to finding Dr. Scheckter and have not gotten the great care that I received from him. I would highly recommend him along with the other doctors in the practice of Nassau Chest.
