Radiosurgery New York​

My reason for going was not to judge the facility but to reap the benefits of the very skilled doctors and their staff. I was treated with the highest professional standards and the last, innovated, cancer fighting methods. They did not cut me while having the extensive services that were effectieve against cancer. Check this facility out you have nothing to lose but everything to gain! I just wonder if the posts from those that saw the place as”dingy and dirty” are still alive and living with cancer.

This Lederman is one odd duck, but I believe that stereotactic radiosurgery really works and is the cutting edge in cancer treatment. It's low-level radiation beams that focus on the tumor leaving healthy tissue unharmed, which was first developed by Swedish neurosurgeon Dr Lars Leksell in 1951. Dr Lederman, however, never mentions radiation on his pushy and obnoxious daily radio infomercial on WOR AM here in NYC. He sounds like a snake-oil salesman. And don't believe his claims to a 95% cure rate. Pure hockum. Personality aside, he treated my mother in 1995 when he was still at SIUH. She had a sizable tumor removed from her colon and the surgeon did a biopsy of her liver at the time of surgery. Sure enough, the cancer had metastasized. We saw the oncologist who wanted to start aggressive chemotherapy, heavy radiation and more surgery. He told me that she had 3 months to live and that the liver cancer was fatal. If it's fatal, why subject her to such treatment, I thought. I did not want to see my mother subjected to this, even if she had been strong enough to endure such torture. Luckily, I had heard about this fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery which had sounded very promising. It had been originally developed by a Swedish radiologist years earlier. Because it's low-level, it does not harm healthy tissue. Also, no prep is required, no surgery, no hospital, no anesthesia, no chance of infection. I figured she had nothing to lose. We went in, they looked at her records, and made the appointment for treatment. Is Lederman rude and unprofessional? YES!!! He has the WORST bedside manner I've ever seen! He reminded me of an old SNL Belushi comedy sketch, except he was seriously wacky. We weren't, however, going to him for his "bedside manner," but rather for help treating my mother's liver cancer. Even though Lederman's style is severely lacking, I DO believe in this radiosurgery. It's got to be, as I said, the future in cancer treatment, certainly better than the mutilation performed by all these so-called "surgeons" with their "wonderful bedside manner." Better than watching her being poisoned with chemotherapy and seeing her endlessly nauseous, watching her hair fall out, turning yellow and having the most miserable final three months of life. So we had Lederman perform his magic and my mother lived for an additional 2 and a half years, pain-free, and celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary with my father before she finally did pass in 1998. She spend her last 2 weeks in hospice and died with both her body and dignity intact. Thank you again for that, Dr Lederman. So when my Aunt Bessie, 300 lbs., 89 years old and confined to a wheelchair was diagnosed 2 years ago with colon cancer, I brought her to Lederman, even though the surgeons were anxious to get her on the table to butcher her. I was certain that she would have died on the operating table if i had allowed them to operate. Before seeing Lederman, he sent us for a PET scan. Then I took her for the consult with Lederman, the cuckoo-bird. He said that she was a good candidate and asked if I want 5 high-level treatments, one per week for 5 weeks, or daily low-level treatments for a month, so I asked "If this was YOUR mother, Doc, what would YOU do?" He looked me straight in the eye and replied: "Wheel her into the Grand Canyon." I was so stunned, I had to laugh because I never heard anything so outrageous come out of a doctor's mouth before. OK, so he was a nut job, but I also knew he had the right technology to treat Aunt Bessie. One year later, she was cancer-free. She died later that year from some other unrelated condition at age 91. Bottom line: I'm 70 and if I get prostate cancer, I'm going to Lederman, as unprofessional and cuckoo as he may be. One final thought: the one thing that all these "cancer" doctors have in common is that they're all in it for the money, don't befooled. Especially Lederman. The difference is, Nutsy Lederman won't butcher you, and his radiosurgery actually works!

I had my mom come to city , she had lung cancer Mr leaderman last words after treatment and X-ray he said it was cleared up. Week half later she was at westchester medical and died her second day. I’ll leave out life struggling nightmare of what happened. I heard a commercial for radio surgery one morning cleaning car for work thought was genius. Wasn’t so genius.

EXTREMELY knowledgeable group. There aim is always keeping the patient's outcome in the forefront.Don't let the casual appearance fool you, I deal with doctors every day,There staff is top notch......I Went to a noted "Urology group" awhile ago.They wanted to do a battery of tests taking up to 60 days prior to any treatment attacking the cancer.( these tests are important but also done to increase billing)Doc Lederman, gave me the same option." I stated I want to attack the cancer immediately" with his treatment.Doctor Lederman, set up for treatment the following week.Talk about the importance early intervention, this was it.The treatments went well no surgery. No pain or downtime.Speak to Doc, remember it's your life.

Dr. Gil Lederman is an exceptionally kind and conscientious Doctor. As much as initially he may not come across this way, that is because he will not make the decision of treatment for you. He will spell out all options, and lets you make your choice.Once you are his patient, his kindness and compassion is amazing! It is evident that his only concern is that you should be well. The environment is uplifting because it is friendly, and the patients sitting and waiting share their positive progress. The staff is marvelous and professional. It is beneficial to see Dr. Lederman for a successful outcome.

After a challenging journey with stage 4 uterine cancer, where conventional treatments like chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation offered little relief and left my mother in a state of extreme fatigue and weakness, we sought an alternative. Our search led us to Dr. Lederman, whose approach marked a turning point in my mother’s battle against cancer.Dr. Lederman’s ability to listen and engage with his patients stood out from our first meeting. He took the time to understand my mother’s exhaustive journey through traditional cancer treatments and the toll it had taken on her health. His empathetic approach and willingness to answer all our questions in detail provided a much-needed sense of hope and reassurance.Unlike the previous treatments, Dr. Lederman recommended radio surgery, a less invasive option that promised to target the cancer more precisely without further weakening my mother’s already fragile state. He ordered thorough scans to tailor a treatment plan specifically for her condition.The outcome has been nothing short of remarkable. Following the treatment, recent scans have shown that the cancer is under control, a testament to Dr. Lederman’s expertise and the efficacy of radio surgery in managing such a severe case. His optimistic yet cautious assurance to continue monitoring the progress with a follow-up scan this summer further confirms his dedication to his patients’ long-term well-being.It’s true that wait times to see Dr. Lederman can be lengthy. However, this is a minor inconvenience when balanced against the quality of care he provides. Dr. Lederman allocates ample time for each patient, ensuring that no question goes unanswered and every treatment option is thoroughly explained. This level of care and attention is rare and invaluable, especially in the realm of oncology.An aspect worth noting is Dr. Lederman's son, who is also practicing alongside him. This not only speaks to a legacy of medical excellence but also ensures continuity of care and the perpetuation of a patient-centered approach that has defined Dr. Lederman's practice.Our experience with Dr. Lederman has been transformative. In a situation where traditional treatments failed and hope was dwindling, his expertise and the innovative use of radio surgery have significantly improved my mother’s quality of life and health outlook. Criticisms regarding wait times pale in comparison to the life-saving treatment he provides. We are profoundly grateful for Dr. Lederman’s care and would urge anyone in a similar situation to consider his approach with an open mind.

He hit my son with his file folder! Do not go here!!! I repeat STAY AWAY from this maniac. He is NOT A DOCTOR. My friend suggested I see him when our doctors at MSK said my son’s cancer was terminal. This Lederman cook has us wait for 2 hours before speaking to us. Then he started rapid firing questions at my 24 year old son. When I asked Lederman to slow down he flipped out and left the intake session. On his way out he slapped my son with a file folder.I recommend you do not waste your time. He claims to be the only doctor who does radio surgery. This is a lie! Many cancer centers do it but you have to be a candidate. Don’t trust him!He’s dangerous and should be stopped. I’ll be reporting him to the property authorities immediately.

Proverbs 11:18 Evil people get rich for the moment, but the reward of the godly will last.No words from anyone will bother this man. However, god has plans for people of his kind.Do not bring your loved one here. EVERDon’t believe me? Type in George Harrison and Lederman lawsuit. QUACK

Dr. Gilbert Lederman destroyed my breast with too much radiation and it shrunk to less than half the size it was, now I am living with a very hard distorted breast which could have been avoided. He also included my neck in the treatment and I told him there’s nothing wrong with my neck, he then said it wasn’t going to cost more money, I was shocked as I wasn’t thinking of money, but when I checked YES it would have cost more. Two weeks after completing the treatment Dr. Lederman called me to come in for additional treatment claiming I wasn't finished. I regret going back for what's called Boost radiation which is much stronger than what he had given me. He is a GREEDY doctor who lied about the number of treatments to administer more powerful radiation knowing it was unnecessary. He said I could see a plastic surgeon, he’s a heartless man. I also regret not going to a hospital facility in 2021 for treatment, but now I know Covid would have been better than a damaged breast. Dr. Gilbert Lederman will answer to God.

He’s a wildcard, he goes against the grain of the big machine, it is easy to find bad press on him due to that.He does a regular radio show to get the word out to the masses, that’s where I found him.My experience - My dad was eighty and not in good physical or mental shape when he was diagnosed with early stage lung cancer. We went to Sloan and Colombia Pres., both recommended surgery/chemo/radiation. I knew he couldn’t withstand it. My healthier mom went that route and passed shortly after. I asked Sloan and Colombia if we could treat him with “Radio Surgery” that I had heard Dr. Lederman speak of. Both said it is an option, but they don’t offer it. Dad went to Lederman and signed on with him. I took my dad to his office for 10 treatments spread 1 week apart each, he was in and out in 15 minutes each visit with no discomfort or side effects. His follow up PET scan showed the cancer was completely destroyed. We sent the scans to Sloan and Colombia for verification, both concurred that his cancer was destroyed but said nothing more.He is odd, he’s a genius, geniuses are often odd. Dr’s Ariel and Gil Lederman offer people an option to -SURGERY/CHEMO/RADIATION because they care.A lot of the negative reviews here are from people who were never treated by them. Disregard those, it may save your life!!

Thank you so much Dr. Lederman.

Best Cancer Doctor Period. Sure others can complain that the office is old. It is but the equipment is not. Other complain he is in the basement, sure most radiation Doctors are located in the basement, its the safest place to be for others that work in the building. Is it the cleanest office I have seen absolutely not. But lets take the restrooms remember some people who can't control their movements are here for treatment. But otherwise, I found treatment and exam rooms perfectly clean.Now for my story. My mother had cancer Dr. Lederman treated her. Her doctor told her she never heard of radiation for her cancer that worked. To me that was amazing all she had to do was google it no med school required. Big red flag. 10 Session later she was cancer free. My mother went back to her doctor after Dr. Lederman's treatment, she was stunned at the the results she was cancer free. What is more stunning was her lack of knowledge of another viable pain free treatment option. What is the take away of this review, if you have cancer don't trust your doctor to tell you everything, They make money cutting, search out your own options, one of them may be Dr. Lederman and if it is just try it. It is pain free. The only pain you will feel is the time you sit in the office waiting for your turn to be treated which honestly can be long. But that is just a testament to how many people love him and want to use his treatment. He's worth the wait, the treatment is worth the wait, the results are worth the wait.

I’ve never been to this Dr. but I have lost all respect for him. I used to enjoy listening to him on the radio until one day when I heard his response to an elderly gentleman. I am an RN, this man called & asked a question regarding his prostrate cancer. It was a good & valid question. Dr Lederman perhaps woke up on the wrong side of the bed that morning. He practically yelled & belittled that poor man who became a bit nervous & scared. I could not believe what I was hearing. It was hard to listen to. I felt bad for the man. Never again will I listen to this Dr. I lost any respect I had for him. There is no excuse for his response. Dr Lederman is a very nasty & arrogant man, would not send my dog to him. Who do you you think you are Dr?!!
