Dr. Gajiev really has to be on of the best out there. He takes notes and does an amazing job of paying attention to your needs. He must have 100's of patients but you would never know it. He really takes the time to listen and does his best to help.

Dr Gajiev is one of the most caring and compassionate doctors you will ever find in NY. He is very knowledgeable and has disciplines in both psychiatry and Osteopathy. His schedule is pretty packed, so I recommend booking weeks in advance, but he will take as much time as needed to listen to your issues and work to find a solution. I highly recommend him!!!!

Dr. Gajiev is an excellent physician. He is caring, compassionate, and most of all he understands very well what his patients are experiencing. I have been to many psychiatrists and Dr. Gajiev shines above the rest. He is is outstanding at his practice. Dr. Gajiev is highly recommended and I truly feel the care that he has for his patients every time I visit. His guidance has helped me significantly and has improved my life considerably. Thank you, Dr. Gajiev.

I have been going to Dr Gajiev for the past ten years. He has done so much to improve my quality of life. He took his time and was thorough when prescribing me medication. Although the wait time can be lengthy, he never rushes a patient out of his office. He is professional and I believe he is excellent at his job. I thank him for all he has done for me.

Dr. E. Gajiev is one of the best doctors i have ever visited. Very detail oriented, really care about his patients, knowledgeable and very approachable. The trust he builds with his clients is already half of the success. Definitely recommended. He really helped me in one of the most difficult time in my life. Thank you Doc!

I have more experience than I would have preferred with various psychiatrists over nearly nine years to date. Indeed, one of those fiasco's was beyond an abysmal one...drugged up past the point of recognition concerning the fact that I was receiving horrendous treatment. I have used Dr. Gajiev for about 15 mths now, and I can only say VERY nice things about him! He receives high marks from me - is astute, perceptive, and fully listens to any concerns or criticisms pertaining to the drugs I am taking. I understand one of the critiques left here previously...it appeared to a former patient that he was not listening to him. It DOES seem like he's too busy scribbling away, but he actually doesn't miss a beat, and that's why I use the word "astute". And so, an absolute "thumbs up" given here by me, just based on my own experience. I can only report him as an excellent doctor, and one of the best which I have so far encountered. And good doctors are hard to come by these days,… what with HMO's and PPO's.....
