I've been with this practice for 20 + years. I really loved the doctor I was seeing. She left this practice in November. Since then, I've had a hard time getting my RX filled, including my blood pressure medicine I take monthly. It takes the doctor days to approve the request. I believe its just the doctor I am seeing specifically. I'm going to try out one more doctor within this practice. If I have the same issue, its time for me to finally leave and go outside of this practice to find a doctor like the one I had (Irma Bensigner, MD).

They should've never let this doctor leave this practice. She was very good and been there for years. I also have issues getting test results. I receive an email saying my results are available then to find its not showing on my portal. I find myself calling more now then ever before to check the status of my RX request or test results.

2 of these stars are for the doctors I saw that are no longer with the practice and 1 star is for the front desk staff. I actually really liked my physicians. But they left. They probably know more than us just how bad the administration is at CMP.

Positive: Dr. Leichtling the best doctor! Especially to the special needs community- highly recommend! Cons: Front desk associates will cut you off when you call in to ask for DOB and then shortly after ask you the reason for your call. Also, doctors will mark you as a no show for an appointment when you were waiting on their phone call.

This place is horrible! Don't waste your time here. I have been a patient for many years but I am so done with this place. The front desk staff is rude, you have to be on hold for 30 minutes before they answer, can never get an appointment when you need to see a doctor, and they take forever to refill prescriptions. This place is so bad that the doctors themselves keep leaving the practice. I have had to go through 3 doctors in the few years I have been a patient here. Even the doctors lack bedside manner and empathy.
