More About The Doctor

What our patients say

  • Dr Weinzweig is an excellent surgeon with skills that are only exceeded by his compassion for his patients and their families. He was highly recommended by a Respiratory Therapist who had the pleasure to work with him for many years at a hospital in our area. And that Therapist was my spouse. My wife and I would not hesitate for a moment to fly anywhere in the country to see Dr Weinzweig because he would be our only physician of choice both for his expertise and compassion.

    David G.,

  • Dr. Jeff, thank you so much for helping my little sister!

    Carlos (Age 9),

  • The first time we met, Dr. Weinzweig's waiting room was chock full, but he took his time and talked to me on a person-to-person level. I could have found a specialist in Boston, but after that meeting, my mind was totally made up. Most surgeons will walk in and say, 'Here's what we're doing. See you at the surgery.' And that would be it. Dr. Weinzweig told me, 'If you have any questions - no matter how small - call me.' I've never seen that in a surgeon.
