How likely are you to recommend Dr. Taneja?
Dr. Samir Taneja is brilliant, compassionate and empathetic. Dr. Taneja performed a Radical Robotic Prostatectomy on my husband (Gleason 7) in June of 2023. The Dr. and he’s entire staff included us in every step of the process. We truly felt us if we were on the care team. We were well informed about every test and procedure prior to/after the surgery. We received (via the NYU Portal/App) appointment/test reminders, procedural information, stress/meditation videos and etc. Due to us being well informed we knew that it was important to follow ALL of the care instructions provided.Unfortunately, the cancer had spread outside of the Prostate so a larger margin had to be removed. Fortunately for my husband Dr. Taneja performed his surgery. After the catheter was removed my husband never experienced leakage. Eleven days after surgery my husband experienced his first erection. The quality of the erection wasn’t the best but it was a great start.
