It's hard to determine what percentage of the review should be about the doctor and what percentage…read moreshould be the office (and the receptionist). So I'll rate both and just average the two ratings. Both Vanna Morero and Dali Mardach work from this office in Bushwick. Both doctors also split up their week between this office and another office in Maspeth (Queens). If you're looking for one particular doctor make sure to let the receptionist know when you're making the appointment (if you don't already know which days each doctor is there) because in my case the receptionist didn't ask me which doctor I wanted nor did she say which doctor she made my appointment with. I didn't know Vanna shared the space, so when I got there and only Dali was there that day I was pretty disappointed. I was only disappointed however until I actually met Dali and found her to be nearly identical in her friendly disposition. In terms of Vanna Morero and Dali Mardach they are the sweetest doctors I have ever met (and are both easy on the eyes as well). I've never had anything complicated to have them deal with so I don't know if they're as smart as they are pleasant but as far as I could tell they are the perfect doctors. They ask how your life is going, never rush you, and seem to help you on anything you have going on. I wouldn't be surprised if you told me both doctors moonlighted as therapists. Now for the downside. The office (in Bushwick at least) is the biggest medical shit hole I have ever been to. If it wasn't for their tiny television in the corner being in English and the fact that I didn't see any bugs I would have completely felt as though I was in some third world South American doctor's office. The office is converted from a residential apartment. The top two floors are still residential apartments. Once you get buzzed into the building you go into the waiting room, which was obviously previously a living room. The waiting room has mix matched chairs (and a large leather couch), a tiny tv on a stand in the corner picking up network signals from a set of rabbit ears, metal bars on the windows, and an air conditioner secured to the window with a healthy dose of duct tape. You make your way through this room to what undoubtedly used to be a kitchen where the receptionist and filing cabinets were. There I checked in. I got was right on time for my 11:30am appointment. Once I found out that there was only one doctor who works at the office at a time I was curious as to why there were 8 people waiting in the waiting room. I wasn't seen for my 11:30 appointment until 12:45pm (and my simple appointment was only lasted 10 minutes). The doctors office was down the hallway to the bedroom (I mean office) on the right. Because it's the most low rent facility I've ever seen the doctor didn't have the ability to take blood and send it to a lab so I was referred to a lab to get that done directly (the results would then be sent to the doctor's office). If being in this crap hole office wasn't bad enough, when you step outside the office you've got the large and clean looking Wyckoff Heights Medical Center staring you in the face as if to mock you. So as far as Vanna and Dali go I give them 5 stars but the office deserves 1 star, I'll split the difference and give it 3 stars. Sure I'd love a great doctor in a clean and modern medical facility but personally I'd rather a great doctor in a crappy office than a crappy doctor in a great office (something I've definitely experienced many times before).

I sat there for an hour and a half with no updates, watching everyone else get taken before me. When I told the receptionist that I was still waiting, I was told, "Well, it gets busy on Saturdays." I walked out. This is a completely unacceptable way to run a practice. Why even book appointments? Just say, "First come, first serve."

She took a great deal of time going over my tests and gave me her opinion as to care she would like to start, but also detailed what her expectations were and how long the treatment might last. She answered every question I had for her and for the first time in a long time, I felt that I really mattered. Do not get me wrong, I have several very great and qualified doctors who also show compassion, but this review is solely for Dr. Acquafredda alone and she deserves it. Perhaps some of the new doctors starting out would remember that patients rely on them for more than just their professional opinion Some patients are apprehensive and scared and would welcome a bit of kindness at difficult times. I have and will continue to refer her to anyone who needs help with her speciality.

I moved to Hoboken less than a year ago and have had no need for a family doctor. I've been pretty sick the last few days and I was able to get an appointment with Dr. Tracey super-easily. I called on Thursday afternoon and was given 2 different times for Friday. I chose the 6pm one, so I could go after work on Friday. I ended up staying home from work and called to see if I could get in earlier - not a problem. Dr. Tracey's staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. When I arrived, I didn't see the doctor for about 30 minutes - which, on doctor's time, isn't that bad. He was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Not too quick to diagnose and weighed quite a few options. Overall, I liked the guy.

Paint falling off the walls, and cabinets look like they've been there for 30 years. Absolutely horrific condition to be called a doctor's office. After my first visit, the doctor made it sound like I must come in for a second visit because something seemed wrong with my blood test. Turns out the mistake was on their blood test, but she still charged me for the second visit. I call to ask about this, and she yelled at me saying (and I quote) "This is not a charitable organization. We have to make money someway. Do you then expect me to come to your house and pay you for your visit?" Completely rude and has no respect for her patients. I would not recommend her to anyone.
