Patient Reviews
Mar 10, 2024
Dr Geftner is compassionate, experienced, diligent has integrity and is blunt about being truthful. I have found the Dr to be there for you if you’re in crisis. He has been associated with all New Jersey hospitals in one way or another. All related to Psychiatry. His available techniques to treat different, issues are amazing. In the sense that He is always 10 years ahead of what everyone else is doing. Before you read of it, The Doctor has investigated it and if promising is using the new technology at his office of many psychiatrists, therapists and other specialists to be able to help you in any way possible. I will say, Dr Geftner will spend time and if needed resources with you. Never looking at the clock on the wall. In my experiences with him he wants you to try to follow his advice, as he will not tolerate another who refuses to try it his way. I strongly suggest this Psychiatrist
