• This was my first opportunity to meet with Dr. Blankstein. He is a very good listener and was able to address concerns and respond to questions very knowledgeably. He addressed issues at a basic level but had the ability to expand into deeper responses incorporating information ranging from physiology and biochemistry to practical medical advice. After spending time and listening to my background and issues, he put together an organized, structured path forward for treatment and monitoring, which was quite refreshing. I am very glad that he was able to fit me into his schedule as I feel quite comfortably that he will provide excellent care.

• I had the privilege of seeing Dr. Ron Blankstein, and I was truly impressed by the experience. I came to my appointment with two full pages of questions-25 questions in total-and he took the time to listen to every single one and answer them patiently. He was incredibly knowledgeable, and I especially appreciated that he was familiar with the latest research and developments surrounding familial hypercholesterolemia. Every explanation was thoughtful, evidence-based, and grounded not only in science but also in his extensive clinical experience. What impressed me even more was his personal thoughtfulness. When my appointment needed to be rescheduled, Dr. Blankstein personally called me to ask whether I would be able to reschedule. He could have easily asked the front desk to make the call, but he chose to do it himself. That small gesture said a great deal about the kind of physician-and gentleman-he is. He is exceptionally kind, attentive, humble, and knowledgeable. I never felt rushed, and I genuinely felt that my concerns were heard and taken seriously. In an age when medicine can sometimes feel rushed and impersonal, meeting a physician who combines such remarkable expertise with genuine kindness is truly special. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to meet Dr. Blankstein.
