If I could give 10 stars I would! Dr. Aron is awesome- she gives you all the tools and support you need to get to your goal weight. She helped me lose nearly 50lbs in seven months and I couldn't be happier! Unfortunately there's no secret magic to lose weight- but if you do your part with her guidance, you WILL succeed!

The receptionist or whoever he is that answers phone calls is ABSOLUTELY RUDE AND DISGUSTING. I believe his name is Kevin. He is bad for business and his customer service is deplorable. I called, maybe a total of three times (within a 1.5 month period) asking questions before I committed to paying close to $200 to be a part of their program. The first time I called, I'll be honest, he was helpful. However, I saw a few bad reviews online and that prompted me to call in to inquire again about a possible refund in the event I was unsatisfied like a few of their prior patients. Kevin then asked me "Why do you keep calling?

Either want to join us or you don't! We keep records of every phone call and you've called before. What are you doing?" Mind you, I've spoken to this man maybe three times within 6 weeks. He made it seem like I was doing something illegal by simply calling their establishment and asking about their services before coughing up money that's pretty hard to come by.

He then put the doctor on the phone after I expressed my dissatisfaction with his utter disrespect and when I explained how rude he was, she said that I was right or maybe it was her way of coddling me to get my money. I absolutely would never do business with this establishment. Any company asking a potential client why they are calling is not somewhere I want to be associated with. Kevin (if that's his name) could've handled the situation much better and should've put the doctor on the phone immediately if he felt he had little to no patience left to assist me. I am disgusted.

Dr. Aron helped me and taught me how to eat the right way. I lost 45lb going to her. I've tried many other diets and I wasn't losing and if I did it would be 10lb and then a stand still. Once I went to Dr. Aron. She gave me a food plan. Told me foods to cut out. And now I am where I want to be. And feel great.

Dr. Aron us changed my life. When I first started seeing her, I was overweight, had terrible eating habits, made awful food choices and was overall unhealthy. Under her guidance, I was able to lose almost 40lbs, lower my lipid count, lower my blood pressure and finally form long lasting healthy habits. Now I work out regularly and make way better food choices.

I feel amazing. My energy level and self confidence have increased tremendously. I really love the website. It is always up to date. It is so easy to make an appointment and the best part is that she takes walk ins so I can walk in anytime it is convenient for me. Her staff is kind and friendly. I am always seen within minutes even without an appointment. I couldn't be happier! Thank you!

Update: Dr. Aron attempted to now act "polite" via a Yelp messages only after seeing my honest review even though she was extremely rude and dismissive to me in her office. She asked me to take down my review but I'm sorry for being HONEST. Not sure what "anxiety" or "uncertainty" she's talking about in her reply, I wasn't anxious at all during my appointments.

She literally copy/pasted her information in the reply from a quick Google search. Her program isn't personalized - she gives a generic weight loss guide to every single patient and never addressed my PCOS. She said she would update her photo two months ago and never did even though people have been complaining about her catfish photo on Yelp for years. She is still following a diet plan that was popular in the 1970s, further emphasizing my original post about her not keeping up with new developments in nutrition.

Dr. Aron weight loss plans really work. I was sceptical at first but when I started and stuck to it I lost and am still losing. May 2019 to November 2019 lost 20 pounds. I'm over 50 and proud to tell anyone to try Dr. Aron if you are serious about losing weight

Many people may have different experiences with the same doctors. For my part, I lost more than 22 pounds thanks to the support of Dr. Aron. She will do the necessary blood tests and give you an effective nutritional program that is easy to follow. Do not hesitate to come and see her.

Very nice environment. Dr Aron is very personable and encouraging even when I fell off the plan she helped me get it back on track. Lost 30lbs in 3 months and have been able to maintain the weightloss a month after discontinuing the diet plan. All in all an excellent experience from an excellent doctor!

Back in November, I read rave reviews about Doctor Aron that perplexed me. I was to her office in May 2017 and met with her assistant - a very nice young woman, I NEVER met (despite what Dr. Aron claims) her on that day and I wasn't particularly impressed. I was given a bag of red vitamins, which did nothing and $100 went by the board. I decided this wasn't worth the time and certainly not the expensive and I was wholly unimpressed.

The other evening, Dr. Aron telephoned me to discuss what I wrote. For the moment, I had no idea who was calling, so I did return the call. Her male receptionist, a very surly, churlish young man, tore into me for writing a "hateful" review about her and attempted to lay me out in lavender - boy, did he have the WRONG guy at the end of the line. Dr. Aron came on the line - she seems like a very nice woman, and I have no doubt she has helped many people and those raves were not without merit.

I told her that I would poof the original review, which I did and I would think about coming to see her - she very generously offered me a free consultation. Now that several hours have passed, it is my firm belief that this is just not a good fit FOR ME - I was put off, to say the least, but this boorish man who was on the verge of screaming his lungs out at me for my November review and that was a HUGE turn off - for me. So, the best I can say is that Dr. Aron seems to be a very nice and capable doctor - but upon reflection and looking back to that spring day nearly two years ago, I believe there are far more effective programs extant, again, speaking solely and exclusively for myself.

If that sounds harsh, that's not my intention. These matters are highly subjective - and when I don't get a good vibe from ANY establishment, I follow my intuition and, invariably, I am right. I don't know how helpful this is, but this is my experience with this office and there's really nothing more to be said. I wish Dr. Aron every success and I sincerely hope that anyone who goes to her will be helped by her. As for me, I am closing the chapter on this and moving on.

Dr. Aron is, by far, the most incredible doctor I've ever encountered! Her compassion and genuine care for her patients is astonishing! I've been a patient of hers since 2014. Over the years, she has displayed patience, kindness, empathy and gives such motivation to patients struggling with their weight. Never judgmental. She offers great advice and support. I highly recommend Dr. Aron to anyone needing help with their weight. I want to thank her and her great staff for always making me feel at home!

Dr. Aron has helped me in my weight loss goal. I've lost a total of 40 pounds in almost a year. If you work the program you will loss weight. All is possible with a the proper help and that is what Dr. Aron has done for me. The medication is a plus and they do work if properly taken. Thank you Dr. Aron for your assistance.

I started a weight loss program in June 2017 with 152 lb. I lost 20 lb in 4 months! I cut off the carbs and sugar with 1 cheat day/ week. It WORKED! I recommend to purchase a digital scale with a bluetooth ( BODY +) and Fitbit watch to monitor your steps. I highly recommend Dr. Oksana to anyone who has BMI above 29 and is serious about losing weight!

I have to give Dr. Aron 5 stars. Since i saw her, I've lost about 21 pounds. Little by little, week after week, i've made progress. I like her style because she makes you really concious about what to do & not to do, plus i feel a commitment to the weight loss plan. Her guidance with nutrition and medication (if needed) is key! I feel like this doctor cares not only about real results but also about health, so she won't recommend something that would be unhealthy for me. So, 21 pounds so far, and a few more to go!

I was able to reach my goal weight, and keep it off with Dr. Aron's help. Highly recommend her services if you are serious about becoming healthy and reaching your weight loss goals.

She was pretty dismissive to my concerns and gave me pills that weren't prescription pills, nor did they do anything. The website said you recieve a personalized diet plan based on weight loss goals, and preferences. But they have a pre-printed diet plan that they just use for everyone and wasn't in line with my lifestyle.

It's amazing how much my life changed when I visited Dr. Oksana. It was not difficult at all and I felt very well cared by the staff. I gained a few pounds recently due to a hormones treatment but I'm coming back to see my favorite team. Gely

Being in your late 40's it's hard to lose weight! Thanks to the guidance, support and never-ending conviction that I too could, Dr Aron changed my life. At first I was stubborn and in denial, but Dr Aron's experience and deep knowledge guided me how to become another successful and happy patient. I've taken my time, I've stumbled, but I never gave up.

Still another 20 lbs to go, but I decided it's OK to take time. It took time to build up all that excessive weight! Loosing it will take time too. Dr Aron and her friendly staff are phenomenal! I've recommended going to WeightlossNYC to a lot of my friends - and I recommend You go too! You won't regret it. If you want a true positive change, this is the place to go!

I found Dr Aron through the web and decided to make an appointment. I had been trying to lost weight and was unsuccessful for more than 15yrs on my own and figured I had nothing to lose. I was amazed at how easy the weight came off. I thought I was dreaming. I didn't want to lose weight too fast and had in my mind I would accept whatever happens but what was happening was weight loss.

The more closely I followed the program, the better the results. I lost 25lbs. I just can't thank Dr Aron enough for listening to me and being supportive when I felt discouraged and thought "I didn't lose any weight this week." The best part of the program was knowing I would be weighed each visit. It kept me honest to myself because ultimately I was doing it for myself. I've been clothes shopping every weekend since losing the weight. I finally love shopping again!

This place is awesome! i have come to Dr. aron for the past four years on and off. first before getting pregnant and a couple of times after that and i have lost weight each time. The staff is very friendly and the Dr. is very knowledgeable and helpful. she adjusts the medication and diet plan based on your health and nutritional needs. the price is fair considering what they charge in other places. those who write bad reviews saying they have not lost any weight have to understand that there is no magic pill you take and magically you'll start dropping off the pounds; you actually have to diet and excersice religiously in order to see results!

Basically she puts you on a vlcd (very low calorie diet) and gives you a bag of pills. And in my case, not even the fda approved weight loss drugs that seem to work like phentermine. I got a bag of red pills that, after researching, I learned do nothing for suppressing appetite and are the main ingredients in condoms. Like a fool willing to part with her money, I went for the follow up.

I lost 1 lb in two weeks.she gave me an annoyed look and asked "why?". Isn't that my line? As for this counseling and behavior modification her website promises, all I got was a two minute visit with a disinterested doctor who told me to eat less carbs. An absolute waste of time and money. Took complete advantage of someone who was too desperate to lose weight. I've learned my lesson and I hope this review helps someone else too.

Wow! Just when I thought my situation was helpless, having tried so many diets that failed, Dr, Aron changed everything, exceeding all my expectations. I am now thirty pounds slimmer, no longer ashamed to look in the mirror, confident, energetic, and I actually feel younger than I have the past ten years. Dr. Aron offers personalized individual programs to ensure you succeed losing weight.

She found the diet that was right for me and set me on a path to permanent weight lost. I just can't say enough about her and her friendly staff. I am motivated and committed to looking the best I can, and did I mention I am healthier and feeling better than ever. I no longer suffer with high blood pressure. I can't thank Dr. Aron enough. In a matter of a few months she has changed my life for the better for good.

If you want to find a permanent and effective way to lose weight, you better do as I did, just visit Dr. Aron, from the very first day you will begin to feel better about yourself, I know I did. Dr. Aron, you are the best! Thanks so much

Love this place! I've lost more weight than I'm willing to post on here. that's a good thing. :- Seriously, just go, it's worth the drive to NYC from Boston every two weeks. I've been doing it for the past 6 months
