Dr Melissa Alsina, MD

Everyone was excellent

Dr Alsina is, in simple terms, the best.

Everyone has always been great, and thank you for the new places for care. I had 1/2 the distance from me and ability of virtual follow up is so helpful, especially when I already have so many appointments scheduled.

Excellent well-prepared doctors and staff. Seeks to fully respond to all questions.

Excellent service.

She's one of the most uncaring, argumentative doctorsI have ever met.. I asked for a different oncologist, but was told that Alsina has to OK my going to a different doctor, which she wouldn't do! I knew that I would be getting a stem cell transplant, and when she told me to schedule it, I told her that I wouldn't let her touch me and that I was going to Sloane-Kettering for it. She was not happy, but I was happy to get rid of her!

Dr. Alsina and [...] are a great team.

Dr Alsina has always been forward with me about my disease and treatments. She is always willing to explain any questions I have and gives me straight forward answers

This Doctor has no empathy with her patients. Never returns calls. Seems like her patients are just a number for her and $ in her pocket for Chemo. My Mother passed away and not once after several calls has she returned the call. My Mother would be alive had she gone somewhere else.

What a cold fish! I saw her for multiple myeloma, which had been diagnosed at Sloan Kettering, she scheduled the chemo, and I never saw her again. After going through my first 2 weeks of chemo, I'm in my off week. This past weekend, I had a fever of 101, was achy, and basically felt like I had the flu. On Saturday morning, I emailed Dr. Alsino that I didn't feel well, and asked her if it could be from the chemo. As of Monday at 6:30 PM I hadn't heard from her, so I sent an email asking if she had gotten my email on Saturday. The reply was that she was out of town for 2 MONTHS & I should call the BMT office if I needed help. Such concern for her patients! She might be a great doctor (not in my mind), but she has absolutely no empathy for her patients.
