The staff, including the doctor, is very supportive and friendly and made the entire process quick and painless. Setting up an appointment was a breeze too. Every aspect was handled with greater care and professionalism than I have ever encountered in a doctor's office. Now if I could only find a general practitioner at this caliber of quality...

Initially it was a good experience but after I transferred to Stony Brook I realized they were over…read morecharging my insurance by thousands with unnecessary amounts of sonograms and ultrasounds. I was getting several calls from my insurance notifying me that services requesting by Gopika Are, the OBGYN, were being denied because they were excessive and not medically necessary. I didn't know what any of this meant until I finally transferred to Stony Brook and when I told them I was doing blood work and ultrasounds/ sonograms every 2-3 weeks, they were shocked. They said it's most likely a way for them to bill as much as humanly possible to my insurance- which after a few months totaled up to 17,000$. When I told Gopika Are that I was transferring care she was very visibly upset and asked what was the reason. Other doctors I've seen at Garden OBGYN also were annoyed when I told them I plan on delivering at Stony Brook and not Good Samaritan because they were not in their network. They even tried to convince me not to go to Stony Brook which I felt was a huge red flag. If you have Medicaid - you are covered to go to Stony Brook for prenatal and delivery care!! Go there instead as it is the absolute best hospital in the north east.

I called them about 20 times saying my pharmacy never received the prescription. They told me I was wrong but they would call the pharmacy. I never got it and switched to Amazon delivery. I gained weight because I went off my pills for about 2 weeks waiting. Then they called me non stop saying I owed $600. I called back and said there's no way that's true. They said they are becoming part of Northwell and many patients got calls about money they don't owe. I got a reminder for an appointment via text and told them I'm canceling. They called 4 times in a row and then sent another text saying I need to fill out pre appointment paperwork. What?? I'm so sad. I trusted them and wanted to stay there. Idk if it is because Northwell is taking over? I used to have to call to get them to put my prescription through but usually that worked. It's horrible now. I'm never going back.

(Speaking from experience with the Port Jeff. location):…read moreWhen I had to have a procedure done, not only was my doctor super friendly and reassuring, but her nurse was amazing. The nurse checked-in with me multiple times, and I felt extremely comfortable right off the bat. She was also willing to answer questions without making me feel rushed - which can be difficult to do in such a busy office! Staff is so considerate and really takes the time to explain exactly what to expect for each procedure. They are very clear and informative, while also being personal and caring. Since I have had contact with two nurses, my doctor, a nurse practitioner, an ultrasound tech and the front desk/administrative staff, I feel I have interacted with enough staff to promise you, you are in great hands here! Even over the phone, I never feel rushed - they are willing to do whatever it takes to not only put you at ease and answer questions, but to do whatever is necessary for your health. The environment is extremely clean and I have never waited more than about 10 minutes. The only reason I did not rate a full 5 stars is because it is difficult to get an appointment and, in my experience, was once told the schedule wasn't "out yet" for the next month. The schedule, once "out," seems to fill very quickly (but I hear this is the case with most OBGYNs anyway). I also asked for a copy of test results, specifically not to be mailed and I would instead pick it up, but it was mailed anyway, although they agreed to call me for pick-up. They do not hand you your results/information requested right away and I had to wait for my request to be processed which was a little frustrating as someone who likes to keep on top of all my own medical documents. These are small complaints in comparison to the excellent level of care - 100% recommend them to anyone!

She never gave up on me even though it was a rough road and she always changed treatment protocol til we found the right one. I also love the nursing staff, especially Fran, and both nurse practitioners. Complaints are that the finance department is next to impossible to get in touch with, and when you are first starting they have a tendency to cancel appointments. We were delayed getting started because they canceled my husband's sperm analysis twice. They also just raised their prices which I think is pretty disturbing since it was already expensive enough. Thanks to Dr Safier talking to finance I was able to get 30% off one of my cycles but they were rude about it and just said "we won't be doing this again." 5 stars for the medical team but one star off for finance

Unfortunately through my fertility journey I have been to multiple practices. Island fertility is…read moremy last (and was hoping final) clinic on my long journey. First let me start with Dr. Trivax who is absolutely AMAZING! Unlike my previous doctor, as soon as outcomes were not as expected he left no stone unturned and did additional testing to identify an underlying issue that was the KEY to exactally why I have struggled so long with secondary infertility. I can't say enough great things about him. However the FINANCE DEPARTMENT is BEYOND HORRIBLE!! It's such a SHAME such great doctor staff are supported by such a poor performing finance department. I don't know how anyone there still has a job. My initial retrevial I almost missed starting my meds because it took almost week to get in contact with someone and get the issues resolved. It's close to impossible to get someone on the phone unless you raise all h*ll and call the office non stop leaving messages with every other department. Kudos to the nursing staff whose other main job is trying to get finance to call back patients. Additionally, after I did all my due diligence they are trying to tell me I have significant fees due AFTER I had the procedure done. Which they are now willing to "see what they can do and discuss with doctor" because ya, they dropped the ball informing me of these fees prior to procedure (mind you they even have a call with you prior to go over all fees you will be responsible for). And again, after I did my due diligence to ensure what my expected out of pocket would be for back to back retrievals they call me MID CYCLE to inform me oops that I owe fees and want to make me aware before I start my cycle.. but they are notifying me day 4 which is no where near before the start of a cycle. If you are between facilities, I strongly urge you to do your homework and due diligence as you will have nothing but headaches with the finance department which unfortunately is part of your journey. Thanks for taking the time to read and best of luck on your journey!
