  • "A living angel... this man makes my day every time I come in for an appointment, makes me laugh and reminds me that everyday life is a gift. I am so blessed to have found him and be under his care since 2021- Dr. Ciobanu is incredibly thorough and intelligent in his work, is fully committed to his patients' well-being and care, and one of the most extraordinarily compassionate AND authentic human-beings I have ever met. Every time I have been in the hospital at Lenox Hill, he always visited me to say hello, checked on how I was feeling and how things were going, and made sure to consult with EACH doctor who was part of my care team during my stay. From who he is as a person AND for his dedication to his patients and their health...I forever have a special place in my heart for this doctor, along with all the staff at NYCBS. Thank you, thank you, thank you <3"

  • "Very nice staff. I saw Dr. Ciobanu based on a referral from MSK to check on some of my results from blood tests taken in CA. He reviewed my prior blood work and confirmed my results were within normal readings as did MSK's Hemotology Department. Additional blood samples were taken to reconfirm the findings."
