This Doctor has such a rude, abrasive personality. I will keep looking for a better Doctor. I expect surgeons to be lacking in personality and warmth (most are), but an OB/GYN needs to have some warmth and compassion. She's in the wrong profession. read more

I only give this place 2 stars because of the desk ladies they make u feel welcomed and comfortable I've heard different stories for other patients that aren't the best but for me there nice and im sure they understand and see where and why we would get upset with dr.formitchvea , as for dr.formitchvea herself it's like once your in that room or vicinity of her u get this weird unsettling Energy .dr.formechvea is very rude and pretty harsh I switched over to her care thinking it was a better option then where I was going before but turns out it wasn't.she isnt very understanding and the energy she gives off is terrible i feel like I'm not properly handled when I go there and there's many instances where I would tell her how I felt about certain things during my pregnancy and I felt she just disregarded what I say cause she doesn't care maybe she has her favorites but I wasn't one of them smh but things never get solved or go in my favor when I see her and i wouldn't trust her to deliver my baby she has no sympathy as a doctor i dont see how she's one read more

The general office area does look a bit outtdated and cluttered. The waiting room is spacious and clean. I'm not sure if I just got lucky, but the waiting time was fairly short both times that I visited. Staff was polite to me. Dr. Fomitcheva may seem stern, but she asked me a lot of questions to consider all factors, even outside of the gynecology spectrum. (I was having issues that could have been gastro). She sent me for testing all across the board, asked me to come back in to re-do a sonogram contingent with my cycle, and let me know that if we needed to go further, she'd make referrals for scans. When I returned, she went through each and every test and gave me copies of everything. Honestly, I felt so well informed, and I'd rather know all the info & what-ifs than to be rushed out of an office with questions coming up later. As a previous review mentioned, if you can get passed the chaotic appearance of the office, you're dealing with a solid doctor. read more

I read a number of positive reviews for Dr. Formitcheva and went to her based on these reviews (which I can only conclude now are not real). I made an appointment with her due to extreme pain I was experiencing. Before even examining me she told me to get over it, I wasnt dying so stop being so upset. She then performed an exam to which she told me nothing was wrong with me. During my time in the office Dr. Formitcheva spent time yelling at her office staff and discussing private patient matters in front of the entire waiting room. To say her attitude and rudeness was horrific doesnt even encompass the experience. As I was leaving the office she informed me to send a message for test results because her staff doesnt answer the phones. I couldnt believe this was a legally run medical office, but was in such pain I could only get out of there as fast possible. After this visit, I ended up in the ER for a week due to a severe medical condition. I was then called by her office a MONTH later to discuss my test results. I cant believe this woman has a degree to practice medicine. I never write reviews but am writing this in hopes to prevent even one person from going to her for treatment. Do NOT go to this doctor or be fooled by her positive reviews. Her behavior is abusive as well as her ability to diagnose or treat medical conditions is non existent. Her incompetence is horrifiying and you should not endanger your health by going to her. read more

Don't let the crazy atmosphere scare you. I almost walked out. That is why I am writing this review for other people. Don't leave. Dr. Fomitcheva is great. She really knows her stuff and is caring although she has a very stern demeanor. She is really good. Thorough. I felt in great hands. The office is a mess. You wait forever. There are people all over the place, babies crying, staff screaming. The office manager started screaming at her staff and I literally got up to leave. I am not used to this kind of comotion in a professional office. it was scary. But, then they finally called me. The rest of the staff is OK but the doctor is worth it. I am older and was not in for having a baby but felt well cared for. so, put up with the craziness to get to the doc. she is really good. read more

Do not even go to this lady.... I saw her in her office she wrote a prescription for me and when I picked up the prescription it stated as directed... she never told me how to take it, then when I tried calling for over a week, her receptionist told me because she isn't in the office she saw me in she doesn't have my chart and can't help me... I tried for over a week to speak to her and they never got her on the phone, it's 2018 people this is not the Stone Age... a medical chart should be accessible.... the prescription she gave me wasn't working and they basically told me there was nothing they could do.... don't bother with This doctor or office , Theos Was her massapequa office (980 n. Broadway)... in addition I asked if I could go see her in her Babylon office and they said no even though it was an emergency... they don't allow patients to jump offices.... FYI this is clear communication that these people don't care about patients and their medical concerns! read more

I would give Dr. Fomitcheva 0 stars if i could. She was extremely rude at my first and only appointment. When she found out i was not married, she gave me an extremely dirty look. Upon finding out that i was 12 weeks pregnant, she rushed me to see a specialist for additional testing because i was a "high risk pregnancy." When i got to the specialist, they told me I did not need to get the testing immediately and i could schedule an appt for the next week if i wanted to. I found a new OB who's office is actually clean and doesn't look like it hasn't been updated since the 70s... I received a call from Dr. Fomitcheva's RECEPTIONIST after 4 weeks saying that i needed to come in because I had an abnormal culture. She called me at 7pm, when most offices are closed and said that my new doctor would have to request the medical records from them so there was nothing i could do. I told her I would like to come pick up MY medical records in the morning, and she said she had to ask the doctor and she would call me back. She never called me back, leaving me anxious, scared and worried. Her office staff is so unprofessional, i hope this review helps other girls like me to find a better doctor than Dr. Fomitcheva. read more

Long wait time, but she is totally worth it. She delivered my son. She is very attentive in making for your receive the proper care and testing you may need. She recommended that I have a c-section. So I went through with it and I'm glad I did because my baby was nearly 10pounds! Trust her, she knows her stuff. read more

Dr. Fomitcheva was extremely rude & systematically treating everyone like they were all the same, didn't listen to a word I said and never even looked at my chart before exam. Another poor woman was so upset with her abrupt rude attitude and bringing other medical personnel in and out of room while she was disrobed with no introduction or consideration at all! Don't go here if you want to be treated like a human being!!! Wait time was over 3 hours, waiting room is dirty with parts of ceiling filthy & falling down over your head. No TV to distract you from the long wait time, dirty surroundings or cheap uncomfortable chairs! Seem to lose patients charts often! Most horrendous Doctors Appointment ever... Good Riddance! Some staff apologetic for both rude Doctors but that's just not enough Dr Fomitcheva is out of touch with up to date medical advancements in her field, extremely rude and abrupt with most patients (a young girl left crying because the Mom said Dr. Larissa was so nasty to her on her very first GYN visit! WTH?) You Seriously don't want to come to this GYN office! Ever! Then when my blood tests came back, it took a while for a staff member to call me and give me a blanket statement about my results. Said I was deficient in Vit D but I had to ask for a Rx for it. They said they'd get back to me about whether the doctor would write it... they didn't get back to me. Dr. Fomitcheva should just retire because her heart surely isn't in in medicine or people! read more

I went to this doctors office when I found out I was pregnant. My first appointment I had to wait about an hour and 45 minutes to see the doctor for about 5 minutes. She was short with me, talked to her staff and scolded them in front of me and then proceeded to take me to the receptionist desk and speak about my medical information. On my third appointment when I had sooo many questions I had brought my spouse to see the sonogram. He left work early just to see the sonogram. We waited for 2.5 hours to see her. He had to go back to school because we waited for so long. I continued to wait in the examination room for 30 minutes. I saw the doctor for all of 3 minutes with an intern who she did not introduce. I left so u easy after this appointment and she was trying to send me to a specialist . (I am 26 and healthy, not high risk). I decided the next day to request my records. They told me to come in the next day to fill out a form. I did and they told me it would take a week for them to print out 20 pages of MY medical record. I called later to speak with someone and they hung up on me. They called me the following Monday and stated it was available that day and I could pick it up. I went in to get it had to pay cash for my medical record and they gave it to me without checking my ID! I could have been anyone. During my experience here I saw first hand that they are breaking HIPPA laws, are highly unprofessional, unorganized and sketchy. I do not recommend this to anyone especially if you are a first time mother to be. 0 stars. read more
