Dr.Lerner is uniquely the most knowledgeable, trustworthy and supportive physician I ever met! I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. My urologist highly recommended Dr Lerner to perform the robotic surgery and it was the best decision for this situation. Upon our first meeting, me and my wife, knew that I would be receiving the best care with Dr Lerner. Operation was very successful. Dr Lerner took the time to visit me every day, after Operation, in the hospital. Me and my family can not say enough wonderful things about the care I received from Dr Lerner and his team and I could not asked for more! Highly recommend Dr Lerner to others.
