Dr. Joseph Nissim, MD

Dr. Nissim priority is obviously interested only in cash inflow and not patient care. I had been seeing Dr. Tesstori for many years , who, I feel, is a very good physician. In the past he has treated me for a condition which only needed a routine follow-up lab test ordered which he had ordered for me in the past just by calling him on the phone. Dr. Nissim was covering today for my PCP and did NOT act in the best interest of the patient ( my needed lab test and treatment was delayed today without any good reason ). He said I needed an office consultation, a totally unnecessary and inconvenient time and expense visit, by him before he would order the follow up lab test. He would not even take the time to look at my chart to see what routine follow up lab test was needed that he could have easily ordered. I would have been happy to take the time to come in for a paid office visit to discuss my lab result once it was completed. I am very disappointed and forced to find a new… Family Practice Dr. "THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PATIENT IS THE ONLY INTEREST TO BE COSIDERED "... Dr. William Mayo . Good Physician MUST ALWAYS act in THE BEST INTEREST of patient !

Dr. Nissim meets you personally for ALL appointments. He then proceeds to take all readings himself and eventually calls you back personally. My opinion has always been that having to tell the nurse everything and then she has to pass it all along to the Doc, was an inefficient process and one the things in our health care system that just inflated the cost without adding value. Dr. Nissim does not operate that way - you deal with him all the way. He is very thorough and will research an issue in depth before making a recommendation..

Always prompt and informative follow-ups and Well informed by all visited specialists. Will make hospital visits when I've been hospitalized by another specialist. Dr. Nissim is, and I hope will remain my PCP.

After every visit Dr. Nissim promptly calls back with any lab results or test results. And as my primary care doctor he tracks my health records from any / all recommended specialists.

DR. Nissim has been my Primary Care Physician for about 15 of the 25 years he's practiced. And thru the years he's always been very caring and responsive to my ach's, pains and ailments. And call promptly with lab results that're needed for diagnosis. He'll always come up with a good referral for any specialist I ay need to consult for any conditions. great Man, I would not hesitate to refer friends and associates to him
