Dr. Arthur Lubitz, Allergist - Biography
My name is Arthur M. Lubitz, MD. I've been in the practice of allergy & immunology for 20 years, with multiple offices in New York City and Long Island. I was chosen for the 2009 Castle and Connolly Metro Award for best doctors in NYC and the 2009 Patients Choice Awards. My interests include sports, politics, finance and communications. I've been interviewed on CNN, CNBC, WCBS-TV, WOR, and on radio NYC-AM and Larry King. These forums help me to educate and inform the public about allergic disease. I share my life with my wife of 12 years and my 2 daughters, ages 6 & 10.
