Rude, apathetic, and quite useless are words that come to mind. While I had positive experiences with the doctors, the nurses and front office are why I left their practice. Debra, you didn't even introduce yourself or your title when I was transferred and you essentially let me assume you were a doctor which you are not. Not sure how illegal that is but at the very least shows you're incompetent.

Yes, the doc is approachable, knowledgeable and presents himself well but his listening skills are poor. We had a whole conversation on my sensitivity to a certain type of medication. Then upon calling in a new prescription I find out he prescribed the same meds we talked about. When I spoke with him I can tell he is not engaged and he thinking about something else. Very cookie cutter approach to treatment. I understand that cardiology is a pretty cut and dried specialty however he needs to appear more interested.

He first analyzed my last name and asked me if I was a descendant of a German - then when I told hi I'm not and please don't put me in the same category, he then got defensive and gave me a lesson about his family dying in the hands of the Germans because he is Greek. Then he insults me about my weight and gives me another lesson all before the examination. He is rude and absolutely uncaring. The only good feature is his receptionist.

He has been treating me for my migraines for…read morenine years now, and thanks to his dedicated care and the treatment shots he administers, my quality of life has truly changed for the better. I originally saw him when he was with the Neuroscience Center of Northern Jersey, and I gladly followed him to his new practice at AMG Neurology in Morristown. He is simply irreplaceable as a physician, which is why I happily drive 45 minutes each way just to see him. Dr. Alias is incredibly thorough, remarkably calm, and genuinely nice. He possesses a wonderful bedside manner, showing an immense amount of patience and taking the time to truly listen to his patients. If you are looking for a highly skilled, compassionate, and attentive neurologist, I highly recommend Dr. Alias. He is an absolute gem in Morristown!

I have an open compound fracture of my right elbow. 3 months after emergency surgery I was told it…read morewas not healing and I would probably need another surgery, so I went to Dr. Ricci for a second opinion. Dr Ricci did not want to do surgery but instead wanted to wait and see if it would continue to heal. That was a much better decision and things are moving in the right direction now. He was not in a rush to just do surgery, but wanted to be patient and see how my arm healed over a longer period, which was much appreciated. He is a brilliant doctor and makes patients feel confident that he knows the right thing to do. His PA, John (Jack) Zierenberg is absolutely terrific. He responds to questions in a timely and patient manner and his efficiency makes the situation much easier. He is friendly and knowledgable and a pleasure to deal with. The office staff are also very nice and personable. I highly recommend Dr. Ricci and appreciate the time he has spent with me, and truly appreciate the quick responses from Jack.

This is not a patient-centered doctor. There is one employee working for him who usurps the…read morepractice and this doctor is unaware and too disinterested to care, much more intercede to train him to ensure the patient receives the quality care the doctor represents he provides. It suits the doctor too well to be relieved of his duties and the oath he takes that one under him who is ill-equipped to play the role of doctor fancies himself one and the same as the doctor. The assistant makes sure the patient has no chance to have any private conversation with the doctor. Merely a chat with this assistant that consists of speculation run amok produces a submitted claim of making moderate level decision making, later to have to be redressed by the patient as the assistant will not own up. Huh!? This charade is over the top. No medical decision making took place. Never heard of an employee already paid by his employer sending bills when chatting with a patient. I learned not to anymore. There are other assistants in this practice but they know to limit their role. When telling this assistant a patient has a question for the doctor the assistant will not inform the doctor. When the assistant receives a writing concerning the patient's care, he does not place it in the patient's medical record as required and stonewalls when the patient requests a copy. He stonewalls when a patient informs him that information he received is incorrect. Instead he tells the patient not to contact him for care when the patient never did and there's no reason why anyone would. The assistant simply intercepts messages for the doctor and passes nothing on. I had to point out that he is not a doctor his view of himself is so distorted. No one goes to what is considered a top-rated hospital to see an assistant for treatment of a potentially life-altering injury. The motivated patient has to jump through hoops to even make an appointment with this doctor. I could not learn the scope of the doctor's practice on the initial visit the doctor has such a limited a presence. I felt like a mere punctuation mark in the appointment. I reached the conclusion a few days before my 2nd and last appointment to select another provider. I escalated and there was intervention after the first appointment to enable the 2nd but the assistant stepped up his intrusion. Then he, rather than the doctor, wrote a summary of the appointment, even thought he said nothing in it and had no legitimate reason to be there. In his summary he portrays himself as a critical player. The doctor not only should be apologizing to me for the assistant's interference and ensuring it ends. Dr. Ricci demonstrates no interest in the patient's care or outcome of an injury. Were it not for the assistant's interference I cannot say if it would be different but that he already demonstrated his indifference, shows it I would have eventually realized it. Take your time finding the right doctor and do not place any arbitrary limit on the number you need to see before finding the right one. Sometimes the first is the right one but not always and you should feel no pressure to stay with any doctor especially when treatment is time critical as is mine. This doctor has a superior attitude to others. I have seen another since who reminded me that the field of medicine is alive and well. He emphasize the importance of making up for lost time. I'm now into 4 months of a fracture that is chronically painful and has overtaken my life. The new doctor emphasized there's not a day to be wasted. Ricci's assistant said to come back in a month after my condition worsened and he even opined that no healing took place. This was after 8 weeks.

She will flat out tell you "I have no pains, why do I need a doctor". So we arrived today and go thru what everyone does at the first of the year...provide proof of insurance is the first thing the doctors office asks for...Ask an 89 year old woman this and the response is "Why"? Thankfully this is G's mom so he gets to deal with the stubborn parts of this issue, I get to stand back and be the angel of a daughter in law....which translates to being agreeable. After this insurance issue is handled its sit and wait time. Thankfully the wait time was in reason for what an 89 year old lady thought it should be. Whew! I was offered the chance to go back for the appointment, but I politely said it would be to many in a room so I would just wait in the very lovely waiting area. Patients went in one door to see the doctors and exited thru another door. The process seemed very streamlined and efficient. The wait for her to be finished seemed just about right for a doctor visit. She came out from the appointment with a smile but then said the doctor wanted her to exercise, which turned that smile to a bit of a snarly snicker. My response was, "well hes just trying to keep your muscles strong so you dont fall, and if you walked more maybe that would be good". The best neutral response I could give a stubborn little lady. We headed home with additional questioning of the new exercise routine. Whatcha gonna do??? Sometimes older people are just stuck in their ways, but thankfully a doctor with a great demeanor can persuade even the most stubborn of older ladies to exercise. Next check up in 4 months with and exercise plan in place. I might want to miss that visit.
