I'M A PHYSICIAN AND I GO THERE FOR MY CARE…read more..... THIS IS A GREAT FAMILY PRACTICE OFFICE. I'll start off by saying that I am a physician. Knowing medicine I am very picky with who I see doctor wise. Dr. Demarco came highly recommended by family and friends so I started seeing him several years ago. I CAN"T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HIS AND HIS OFFICE STAFFS LEVEL OF CARE AND KNOWLEDGE. He makes patients feel comfortable discussing anything and everything. His bedside manner is the best I've ever experienced. Aside from the high level of care, the office and staff are patient, pleasant, helpful, and efficient. As a physician in private practice I have yet to see a more cohesive, happy and helpful group of medical staff, and I've seen and worked with plenty. Some reviews discuss the fact that getting an appointment can be tricky. OBVIOUSLY, as the practice is spectacular as such they have a lot of patients and are constantly adding more due to demand. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS IN MEDICINE WHEN YOU ARE A GREAT DOCTOR, WORD SPREADS. Tricky occasionally but trust me it is worth it. Now a days if you want your doctor to take his time with you there will be times your waiting for others while they are being seen. Ultimately, I'd rather have a great doctor and sometimes have to wait, than have an average or not so good doctor and no wait. YOUR CALL........... There's a saying in medicine, you can tell how good your doctor is by how packed the waiting room is (i.e. how many people are willing to wait). Everyone there works fast and efficiently, they are just busy because they are THAT GOOD.

TLDR: great care by Dr.Karnik Patel but terrible billing office that is still billing me…read moreincorrectly after 4 months of service after confirming the practice was in network and covered by insurance. The two stars is for the truly amazing care that Dr.Patel offers at this practice. After being highly recommended I scheduled an apt 4 months in advance to switch my PCP. The appointment was efficient and covered all of my many needs. I also got blood work in-house and then was sent on my way. Shortly after I was billed over $400 for my visit as the service was considered not covered by my insurance. Note: I had called and cleared the dr by insurance prior to my visit. After calling my insurance they said they would work with the Hackensack to adjust, after a few months it was adjusted again but still over $200. I repeated the process again it was $152. My insurance is still confirming that this should be covered as it is my annual well visit by a PCP. I am still receiving bills however when I sign into mychart there is zero balance, yet on Hackensack billing portal there is the $152 balance. When I call Hackensack billing they also say I have no balance, yet they are still mailing me bills for all difference amounts ($15.45, and $152). It has now been over 4 months and I still cannot get the insurance and Hackensack group to align and am unfortunately never going to be able to see Dr.Patel again due to these struggles.

If you're looking for the worst and most rude staff you'll ever encounter, go to this office. I am…read morein disbelief of the way the staff treated me and refused to help me refill my medicine because I told them to call my pharmacy instead of faxing them as it has been over a week of me calling and trying to get my refill to the pharmacy. Her response to me was "you don't tell me what to do". What?! That's the response I got when I asked they call instead of faxing the pharmacy. They even hung up on me and when my daughter called, they picked up and hung up immediately twice. They must have caller id and saw the same last name because they would not take our calls anymore. I'm now sick with no meds and will have to go to another dr for my refill as it's Not a medicine you just stop taking. RUDE AND UNCARING STAFF!!! Just unbelievable during Christmas week too!!!!

I have high expectations for my primary care physicians - including those with two 5-star reviews…read moreon Yelp. Dr. Matienzo is a friendly Cuban doctor but there are a few shortcomings which I think I should share: -His office is located in the bottom of the building all the way to the right upon entrance. It's very confusing to navigate there since there's no directory and majority of the doors in the basement don't have suite numbers or names. I noticed the wall said "Wet Paint" so maybe this is temporary but it took me a while to guess where he was exactly. -Staff do not have a friendly disposition. Expect a "here, fill out these forms" attitude. -The waiting area has a few chairs and a generic TV playing day-time television show. There are a few magazines but nothing to really to entertain a 20-something adult. I grew bored since my appointment was at 11AM and I didn't see the doctor until 11:35PM. -I requested a physical/check-up since it was my first time with the doctor and I haven't had a check-up in over 2 years. Out of the very routine exam procedures, the only thing reported back to me was my weight and that I have large tonsils. The doctor even recommended I take an EKG right in his office - but I didn't receive any results. I need to get blood work done in his laboratory next door and he said he'd communicate the results in 2 weeks, my hope is that he'll communicate all that information then. My prior physician in DC was a bit more organized and well-versed in patient care - with very friendly and proficient staff. He may have set the bar too high...

DO NOT GO HERE Went…read morehere for a few months. After more than 6 appointments, these guys are always AT LEAST 30 minutes late for EVERY appointment. Twice I had to wait well over an hour. Doesn't mater day or time. Never once even CLOSE to on-time. - They say they're behind because they take walk-in urgent patients and that gets them behind. I call BS. After being in the waiting-room for many hours waiting for appointments I never once saw somebody 'urgent' come in and take precedence. - They say they're so behind because it's only 2 doctors. I call BS. Doesn't matter how many doctors there are if you schedule your patients professionally. - They say they can't be bothered to let patients know that they're running behind? I call BS. They have two people behind the desk. Here's a basic courtesy tip: if you're going to be more than 15 minutes late to an appointment, let that person know! They also charged my insurance like $300 for a 15 minute consult to get a prescription renewed. Billed as a full visit. My first he insisted on tests that were irrelevant and he got super rude when I questioned whether they were necessary. Should have left right there are filed a complaint. Doctor was rude and dismissive. Clearly only cared about the billed visit. Staff seemed fine. Good thing there's competition in the area.

Please, do yourself a favor and find a better doctor. Disclaimer, I am a physician myself. I went…read moreto see Dr. Pollak and was surprised at his lack of attention to detail and poor medical knowledge. I complained of shoulder pain, and he told me he can't do anything about it without even looking at me or doing a physical exam. He rushed through the appointment, did not ask any of the questions he was supposed to (for instance, he didn't even bother getting a full medical history from me) and was entirely unhelpful. I left the appointment without any answers and had to immediately go back and search for a new doctor. If I learned anything in medical school, it's that this is not the care you deserve from your doctor. I recommend you try another doctor.

Clean, lovely environment. Solid nurses, expedient paperwork service. There was an issue with…read moreinsurance (Which has happened before in Miami and was frustrating to handle.) Handled here in 2 minutes. Previous doctor outside of Bloomfield area was comfortable issuing vaccines without medical records...I didn't let her touch my kids. They took forever to get records coordinated. Here, it took all of 2 minutes. Our new doctor was fantastic, well educated, and expertly versed in her craft. I am happy to entrust my children's health and welfare to this team. They also have onsite services for lab work. I hate going to what feels like a cattle farm when I go to quest or LabCorp for bloodwork. Especially, because it is easy for mistakes to happen in those facilities. Especially, sitting in a crowded lobby shoulder to shoulder with any number of patients with infectious diseases. No thanks... So I am happy that it can all be done here. They also have a 24/7 emergency office that can handle a variety of scenarios. I'm impressed by this pediatrician. With us finally deciding on Hoboken (my birthplace) as our new home. This office here (a few blocks from our new place) is perfect for anyone living in Hoboken and technically the pediatrician I'd recommend for anyone within train or driving distance. I don't trust my children with anyone lightly. As well no one should. Give it a look.

We really love our doctors here, but the location is now not open on Saturdays...meaning we end up…read moreat 1111 Hudson or another location. It's good that they have more locations, but if staffing? or another issue is to blame for not opening on weekends, and you need more of those times, go to a different location.

Dr. Fox is the BEST! Seriously, I don't even go to her anymore (seriously reconsidering paying the…read moreOne Medical yearly fee just to see her though) but she is just the bees knees. The cool thing about her, besides her awesome bedside manner is that she knows her stuff and she's not afraid to give you holistic alternatives in place of popping a pill. In my eyes looking at medicine from all angels and giving people individual care makes a great doc and she is one! Wait did I mention that she is super dope?

I had been with One Medical for almost two years at their Midtown location (and had absolutely no…read moredesire to renew my membership for the third year) before meeting Allison Fox, MD by accident. Well, we all know there are no accidents, right? While the other physicians I came across with at various One Medical locations didn't do much for me, Dr Fox turned out to be the most caring and compassionate physician I have ever met. Not only does she seem to genuinely care and listen (those qualities are so rare today!), but also follows through every issue I might have. Also, she's never hesitant to discuss more than one issue during a visit if time allows and seems to follow a holistic approach. (Again, this is such a rarity today!) She's always within reach and answers to her emails in a timely maner. If she's away from the office, she's sure to refer me to one of the other physicians at the 14th Street location who also have been wonderful. I am so glad I found her and yes, I renewed my membership for the third year. (As for the office: it's convenient, modern and aesthetically pleasing, but most importantly the appointments ALWAYS start on time. The staff are courteous and very helpful.) Definitely recommend.
