I have been a Concierge patient of Dr. Insel’s since 2018 and could not be a staunch advocate for both Dr. Insel and his Concierge service. I Was referred to Dr. Insel when tests, on a company provided physical, suggested the need for a more dedicated personal physician. My experience as his patient was completely in line with the top rankings he regularly receives from his peers. He is comprehensive, extremely responsive to any questions/concerns and most importantly, is someone who genuinely cares about his patients. He makes you feel very much like you are being treated as if you were his family member, and for that I Am eternally grateful. Irecently had a cardiac incident that required me to be taken to the emergency room in New Jersey on a Federal Holiday. And as a Concierge patient I was able to provide Dr. Insel’s cell phone number to the emergency room physicians. Icannot tell you how relieved I Was, as an emergency room patient, to hear that the doctors in the emergency room had spoken to Dr. Insel about my condition, and they had agreed on the way forward. It was extremely reassuring to hear the emergency room doctors compliment Dr. Insel’s responsiveness and agreement with their proposed approach to treat me. After being released from hospital, Icannot speak to how relieved that Iwas to be back in Dr. Insel’s office and under his primary care. He interfaced to the hospital in New Jersey to obtain all necessary records required for follow up treatment. If it is not clear enough, Iam a huge advocate for Dr. Insel and his Concierge Services. I Would be more than happy to answer any questions and or speak on behalf of both.D J.
Absolutely AMAZING! Dr. Insel truly goes above and beyond as a physician. He is extremely thorough, compassionate and smart. Wonderful bedside manner with a touch of humor which goes a long way when you’re stressed and getting a cardiogram. He takes his time to explain in detail everything he is doing. You never feel rushed and he takes his time to answer all of your questions. His staff is super friendly and respectful. The scheduling desk is willing to work with you so you don’t have to wait months to see him. I am so lucky to have discovered Dr. Insel! HIGHLY highly recommended. If I could give him a rating of 10stars I would!!Bryan J.
My last 3 visits with Dr. Insel have been fantastic, and I highly recommend him as a cardiologist. He is very personable, and makes you feel at ease during your visit. He has given me good guidance to take care of my cardiac health, including his 10 Commandments of Weight Loss and Maintenance. His staff is also friendly and professional, and I always feel better after a consultation with Dr. Insel.Andrew Y.

Dr Insel is a great doctor who has been my Primary Care doctor for a number of years. Under his care I have become much healthier & more proactive in managing my health. He has inspired me to be more systematic & thorough. My health risks in certain areas have improved measurably. He has changed my eating habits by example & frequently recommends easy suggestions to improve my diet. Additionally, he has a great personality & a funny, friendly manner that puts me at ease. His support people are efficient, reliable & personable. He has also referred me to a team of wonderful specialists who I've come to trust & rely on.
