On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 87 out of 100 based on 8 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".

Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter gave a review stating,"  Lenox Hill aims to inspire, and the eight-episode first season ends up more emotionally nourishing than intellectually satisfying—not that there's anything necessarily wrong with that." Daniel D'Addario at Variety said, "With an openhearted curiosity about its subjects and a patient, clear eye, the series comes to no conclusions about the way we administer medical care now, but leaves its viewer with ample information to draw his or her own."

In its 'Best of 2020' reviews the New York Times included Lenox Hill in it list of 'Best Shows Ending in 2020.' The Times critics called it "a riveting narrative and a modern wisdom text about the ebbs and flows of life and loss."
