Dr. Ungar is a top-flight practitioner and he put me at ease with is knowledge, attention to detail, and communication style. His office staff is very professional, polite, competent, and caring. I feel and know that I am in good hands. I Highly recommend Dr. Ungar for anyone who is in need of 5 star treatment and desires to know what they need to do to improve their health. Please see this Dr. for advice. He is extremely competent. If you need a straight forward 2nd opinion I recommend Dr. Ungar and staff as well..by all means seek him out 1st.

Report
Absolutely the worst Dr I have ever dealt with. Let me prefaces this with my husband went to him several years ago. Dr. Unger never bothered to look at any imaging or diagnosis from other doctors. So my husband left. I was warned but thought I'll try him since he is also a neurologist. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and have some other chronic pain and was wanting to find out what all was wrong.
He spent less than 2 minutes with me. in that time noticed that I was prescribed medicine for my ADHD. It was a relatively new prescription and I told him that I would talk to my primary and see if there

I saw Dr Ungar several years ago, he would order all these tests which I didn't feel were necessary, I thought he was doing it just to bill the insurance. I did like him he was kind and funny. I quit going thinking all this testing is insane. I should have kept with him, and just asked more questions instead of jumping to conclusions. I am still suffering, still have lightheadedness and problems focusing when I have these episodes, but I heard about ocular migraines the other day and it now makes sense and I now know why he was doing all the tests. Us patients need to understand he is ordering
