      I agree! He has given several lectures on the ICN, and is a world renouned IC expert. If I ever visit NY, Dr. Moldwin's office will be THE place I visit, (even before The Statue of Liberty or all the other typical tourist destinations!)

          Long Island Dr

          You can't get a better doctor for IC then Dr. Moldwin! You are lucky you live in Long Island. Check for insurance coverage though.

                I love Dr. Moldwin. He worked with my team of Doctors after my Indiana Pouch was made. He made the suggestion regarding who to see in Upstate NY that changed my life!

                  dr moldwin doesnt take most insurance only medicaid/medicare and hip. so i see his nurse prac Marina and Dr lee richstone, both great drs and dr moldwin reviews my case and i dont have to pay out of pocket for his advice. all the drs at the smith inst. for urology are great though.

                              yeah her name is marina...she only takes certain insurance. i get booked under dr richstone and then she sees me. and she also runs everything by dr moldwin. i would see if she takes your insurance and if not book it under dr richstone and tell him you have IC and right away he will get her. he's a great dr too, he's doing my hydro and cysto tomorrow. let me know if you decide to go there. good luck.
