This is worst doctor I have seen in my life. He wants the nurse to take care of me as patient with out giving the opportunity to approve that change.

The doctor is very professional. He took time to address my concerns and he sent me to a Rhuematologist which found out that I had RA & Fibromyaglia.

I think the doctor is an idiot. And the staff are all so uneducated. They like to talk over you and never let you finish what you have to say. They need to get some training on how to deal with people. People who pay money to go to this (pathetic)office should not be treated like they are worthless. The doctor kept wanting me to go get all these unecesary tests at the hospital. Tests that I know now I didn't needd. Thanks to these reviews I'm starting to see that this doctor is NO GOOD! Being a Dominican immigrant I feel ashamed that this man is from where I'm from. I'm contacting the Department of Health Public Advocates Office to let them know to investigate this horrible man! How does he sleep at nigh...and how do those ignorant secrataries live with themselves. Don't they have parents? I bet they wouldn't like for someone to treat them like how they treated me.

two years and when she finally left him to get a second opinion we realized she never ever had diabetes! Doing further investigation, it looks like this doctor has misdiagnosed other patients in order to collect money from insurance companies. DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR - and if you do get a second opinion! Also the staff is unfriendly and rude. They don't care about your business. They are just there to waste air!!!!
