Richard I. Roberts, MD

"Years ago Dr. Roberts had said to me, and I quote ‘if you were to give birth you would be split in half and a c-section is out of the question.’ Because of this doctor I remained on the pill and scared to death of becoming pregnant. This is unethical, hurtful and I think about it to this day. Needless to say I do not have children and no one wants a woman who cannot have children. I also had a small tear which needed a stitch. He asked me if I have been inserting a HEINEKEN BOTTLE. He told people this horrible accusation around the office and I can only imagine who else was told this horrific lie.which has given me such anguish and complete embarrassment I don’t know what to do. It keeps me awake to this day. I am still embarrassed,and shocked He is a terrible, terrible doctor who should have had his license revoked.. Thank you for the PTSD and depression I have carried overs years of mental suffering, embarrassment, shock and anguish. Zero stars if I could and thousands of sleepless nights."

"I had a procedure done by Dr. Roberts in December 2019, right before COVID hit. I met him at my medical center in Queens and traveled to LI to have my procedure. I would gladly go back Just to be attended by him. After COVID he didn't return back to my Medical Center and I assumed perhaps he retired. I'm glad to see it appears he's still working in his Long Island location. I may have to travel there as I felt very comfortable and we'll taken care of by him."

"Dr Roberts is one of the best doctors that I have ever been to. His entire staff is very kind, attentive and helpful especially Christine. He delivered my healthy baby boy at NYU hospital 3 weeks ago via C section. My scar is barely even visible because he stitched it so beautifully! I barely lost any blood during my surgery. He is gentle, kind, patient, and respectful. He truly cares for his patients. He listened to all of my concerns, and answered all of my questions. He checked up on me a couple days after my surgery at the hospital and checked my scar as well. Every visit I had with him I was greeted with a warm hello and a handshake. He is very funny and made me feel comfortable during all the exams. And Christine is the sweetest. She is very gracious, and friendly. The entire staff is wonderful."

"Dr. Roberts is beyond AMAZING and every positive word you can think of and truly loves his career. I had recently moved to the Long Island area and this was my first pregnancy (so exciting!) and I was looking for a OB/GYN as every aspect of pregnancy and labor and delivery scared me. From the moment my partner and I met Dr. Roberts he was kind, caring, funny, understanding, and went above and beyond to educate us both on all things pregnancy. At every appointment, Dr. Roberts made both my partner and I feel welcomed and not just ‘another patient and their partner’ which I truly appreciated and is very hard to come by. Dr. Roberts always had such a great, happy, and positive attitude in ALL of my appointments, which made my pregnancy experience that much more positive. Every time I had a concern about my pregnancy he would put my mind at ease and would reassure me that things will be fine, which it was! If I ever had a concern or needed paper work, it was a quick message through the portal and I would get a response back in 24-hours or less from his team! I went to Dr. Roberts from 8-weeks pregnant all the way till 39-weeks pregnant. I had a spontaneous with no complications birth. Unfortunately, Dr. Robert’s wasn’t on call for that day, which isn’t his fault but the staff at NYU Long Island hospital were all equally amazing. He went out of his way to call me and congratulate me and tell me how awesome I did during labor and delivery. In my post-partum appointment he was just as friendly and educational and I left feeling confident moving forward in my recovery journey. He even went out of his way to meet my sweet baby boy after my appointment in the waiting area of the office, which I thought was super sweet. Dr. Roberts was also kind enough to invite me back for the next pregnancy (me and my partner will hopefully be back next pregnancy!) Aside from Dr. Roberts being awesome the front desk staff and nurses were all helpful, had a good attitude, and were supportive. Thank you so much ladies your work doesn’t go unnoticed! Lastly, thank you Dr. Roberts for making my first pregnancy enjoyable and going above beyond to provide me and others quality care! It is truly appreciated beyond words. If you’re looking for a OB/GYN, Dr.Roberts is the doctor to go with! You will not regret it! - Lilli C"

"The best doctor in the world!!!! Dr. Roberts is amazing. He is caring, friendly and extremely knowledgeable in his field. He has been my gynecologist for my check-ups, and my two pregnancies. Every single one of those visits were a joy. Dr. Roberts also performed my c-section for my second pregnancy. I could not have picked a better person for the surgery and I am so grateful and honored for this experience. I often recommend my friends and family to go to Dr. Roberts when they need a gynecologist. Staff is absolutely amazing as well. My visits to the office are always enjoyable and it always feels like I’m surrounded by friends and family. Highly, highly recommended! They really don’t make doctors like Dr. Roberts anymore."
