I met with Dr Zahalsky as part of his Direct Care patient experience. He has chosen to contract…read morewith SignatureMD for a portion of his primary care practice. For younger patients, he told me that he is still accepting insurance. They way it works for direct care, is that for Medicare patients you pay SignatureMD $1800 per year. Due to the crazy rules of Medicare you can't give him the money. They do. He also will bill your insurance-Medicare and secondary. With the direct care agreement, he will call you and/or text you the very same day. With the money conversation out of the way (isn't it sad that medical care is first about money, then also about care), I think that Dr. Zahalsky does a very good job. FIrst of all, I think he's smart and thinks things through. Second, he genuinely cares. Next, he will make sure that if you were to need to see a high quality specialist, he'll make sure that you obtain an appointment. There is not much more I can ask. The medical care system is broken. Everyone recognizes this. Everybody feels like a insignificant cog in a money system. Doctors and nurses all seem to be burned out. I chose to spend some money so that Dr. Z can afford to spend some time with me-I had a full one hour appointment. I was able to ask each and every one of my questions and have them answered. Paying $1800/yr is not something that everyone can afford. I know that. But if you can pony up the dough, I think it's worth it.

Dr. Zahalsky is nice enough. He does the blood work himself, and after a few days it's easy to…read moreaccess your information on the online portal. The wait wasn't bad to see him. I probably won't go back, because I wasn't a fan of how he handled the fact that I had high bp. He took my bp, noted an absurdly high number, but didn't take the time to check it again later. He ranted about "protein supplements" without any detail on the supplements or even about when I use them, which I rarely was at that point. It's possible that the high blood pressure was due to dining out about 20 times a week--I am on Yelp, after all. He didn't even ask, or let me explain my poor eating habits. I solved the issue myself by watching my sodium intake and eating more fruits and vegetable I won't hold it against him that the two specialists he recommended were not helpful. I should have done my own research.

Plus, Dr. B and Claire were able to help problem-solve some other concerns that would have been missed had they not taken the time to really listen to me (like my previous provider missed.) This was one of the best investments I've made in myself and my health as a woman. 10000% recommend you go see them!

Seeing the nicu team come in was probably one of the scariest things I've had happen and Dr. Borelli was professional and talked us through the birth.

Dr. Lashgari Prather was one of the four OB's we saw during my wife's pregnancy. She was, in fact…read morethe OB that my wife saw the most, and came to both respect and like her. In our appointments she was friendly and respectful of our time. She answered all of the questions my wife had and was sympathetic and willing to help accommodate reasonable requests my wife had. My wife wanted her to perform the delivery, and while Dr. Prather was our last OB appointment before our daughter was born, she wasn't on call the night it happened. She was nice enough to stop by and see us and the baby after her shift the next day. Very knowledgeable and professional medical doc. As a patient (or husband of) she's the sort of professional that I would want working with my family.

The practice offers care to…read moreinsured and uninsured patients, just work it out with billing in advance, like with any other practice. I've always been able to bring up my concerns, get the labs that I needed, and work through any concerns. I feel well taken care of at NOVA Physicians to Women and will only see Dr. Lashgari-Prather because of her kind and efficient bedside manner. She doesn't request excessive labs or procedures, but she does request the standard ones and will happily take care of labs and procedures that the patient may want. The front desk is efficient, polite, and thorough, as is the check out desk. Parking costs $7 as of 4/2023, for the whole day. There is no validation and you can pay at the pay stations with your debit or credit card. The building that NOVA Physicians to Women is located in is attached to Virginia Hospital Center and is a Mayo Clinic affiliate. Many practices attached to hospitals require invalidated paid parking and ai don't go there that often, so it's not a huge deal to me. She's never dismissed me or been condescending of me making an informed decision based on medical research or pier reviewed papers, which I appreciate. Many doctors are bothered by informed patients, so this approach is refreshing. I originally came to Dr. Lashgari-Prather whe she served as the on call doctor for a local Midwife. The prior Midwife provider was great, but her front office was rude and horrible, so I decided to become Dr. LP's patient (even though she urged me to speak with the other practice and give them another chance). When I would not do that, she was kind enough to take me on instead of letting me be without a provider. I've never regretted my decision to be her patient even though I had not received care from a Ob Gyn in 10 years (from when I came to her practice). Appointments with her are quick, but that works for me. I still get the care I need and am happy and at ease being her patient.
