My experience with the office was also amazing, anything I needed all I had to do was call and they were more than happy to help. Please don't live in pain, because quality care is here!

There is more but at the moment I cannot think because I am so furious after having just gotten off the phone with them. Apparently closing on time is way more important than addressing an 85 year old woman's pain issues and the need for simply just calling in a script. As a health care provider, I am appalled and ashamed that these people are part of my profession. Run, don't walk to a provider that has a team that truly cares for patients.

I went to Dr. Dewal for a 2nd opinion, and was extremely disappointed. He was condescending and…read morerude. When looking at my MRI I got up to look more closely at it, and he told me to sit down. When I expressed a concern that often when people get cervical fusion (which is what he was pushing on me), they oftentimes end up needing another one in a few years due to the excessive stress placed on the surrounding discs. He told me that this was not the case and if they do need surgery that's it's because of natural degeneration. I know numerous people that this has happened to and it doesn't seem to happen to those who haven't had this surgery, so I have no trust in what he was saying. He barely looked up from my MRI report when speaking to me, and simply walked out when he finished telling me what he insisted I needed. No goodbye, nothing. I'm happy to report that I no longer have nerve pain due to an alternative approach I took, and I'm so happy that I didn't resort to surgery. I don't understand why this man has so many positive reviews on Google.

I am happy with Dr. Sharma. I'm sure the other Dr.'s are also just as good. Do not think he or…read moreother doctors know how awful the office staff has been. I have been told they are making changes and very busy. No reason not to return calls. The past 4 weeks have left numerous messages, and no one returned any call. I had left Intermittent FMLA paperwork with the office before August 5. Messages that I was leaving advised how my HR needed to have my FMLA forms submitted. August 5th had a Dr. appt. (5:45pm) and spoke to office manager to advise my FMLA paperwork has not been submitted and my HR needs ASAP. She advised it will be put in as Urgent (remember this was August 5th). . August 12th, after still trying to contact someone and leaving messages, my FMLA was denied because the Dr's Office did not submit the paperwork. I called the old phone number and advised the person who my doctor was and would not call the 833 # since I have been calling that number and no one returns calls. Of course, when I explained what was happening, I got a standard, I am sorry and that she would transfer me to a Mgr. I spoke to Madelyn or Marilyn (office mgr.). she advised on August 5 the paperwork was put in as urgent. I told her that today is August 12 and the paperwork was not submitted to my HR how is that urgent? She told me that within 1-2 days my HR department will have the FMLA paperwork. Today is August 17th, no paperwork has been received. Yesterday I left a message, after I was blind transferred to Madelyns voice mail, thinking I was going to speak to her. Advised this would be my last message and I was seeking an Attorney since I need my FMLA paperwork submitted. Offices of doctors know that FMLA paperwork needs to complete in a timely matter. No one returned my call again or sent the paperwork to my HR Dept.

In 2007, I was bit by a tick. I went undiagnosed with Lyme disease and coinfections for over 11…read moreyears. (Specifically, neuroborreliosis.) I can't begin to describe the pain and disability I experienced. Think of your worst charlie horse and make it last 24/7 for over 5 years "traveling" to one part of your body to another every few months and then these muscle spasms/dystonia continuing at least a few hours daily for the next 6 years... This pain was just one aspect of what I was going through. My cognition, balance, vision, hearing, fine motor skills and more were also affected. Outside of going to Drs., I was homebound from 2007 to 2013. In the beginning, I was taken seriously, but my doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, and the only thing they did was prescribe medications - LOTS of them including fenanyl. Thank God I never became addicted to them, but I was definitely VERY medicated, and as time went on I, developed more and more physical tolerance to them. My symptoms outside the pain also grew worse over the years, and doctors still had no idea what was causing them. Eventually, I was treated as though I was drug seeking, having psychiatric issues, etc., and I was "blown off." In 2017, a friend of a friend told me of Dr. Gudesblatt at South Shore Neurological Associates in Islip. He was the first doctor who took ALL of my concerns seriously and searched for an answer as to what was causing my symptoms rather than just treat the pain. Although it was hard dealing with office staff sometimes (as others have described here on Yelp!), Gudesblatt did more than a full workup, and he also listened to me. In mid-2018, upon my request, he sent my bloodwork to IgeneX, and that is when I was formally diagnosed. Within less than a week, he began treating the Lyme disease, and I then began seeing an "Lyme-literate" infectious disease specialist. I honestly don't know where I'd be today if it hadn't been for Dr. Gudesblatt. He never blew me off even when he couldn't find answers, he continued to do workups and documented all of my symptoms, and he listened to me which eventually led to my diagnosis...

Real, down to earth, not fancy but honest, thorough and terrific. I had seen her for an intial meeting and then went back several months later for a physical. She remembered me. She asked personal questions that we had discussed on the last visit. I know she knew who I was. In a busy practice and being new, I was impressed. The only reason she got 4 stars is you will wait FORVER. Be prepared. For me it is worth it. I waited 2 hours to see her but she spent a good hour with me. She never makes you feel rushed. If you can sit there and not get frustrated waiting, she is well worth the wait. Don't be shy. she will look over every inch of your naked body and prod and poke but you will know you are in great hands and if she says you are OK and healthy, you are.
