I trusted Dr. Lobo to repair my broken heel after she assured me I would regain about 90% of my…read morefoot function and return to a normal life. The reality was devastating. After surgery, my foot was left crooked and I developed a large open wound that was never explained to me. She put a cast over it without telling me anything. When I returned to have the cast changed and finally saw the wound, I almost fainted. No one had warned me about it, and at one point it was close to becoming necrotic. I had to stay in bed for two months because of severe swelling and fluid. Instead of receiving support, I was treated as if I was being dramatic while I was clearly in extreme pain and dealing with serious complications. I later learned that a screw had been placed directly through the middle of my joint, and I ultimately needed another surgery to try to correct the damage. To this day I am still suffering the consequences. I have difficulty walking and constant pain that now affects my legs and back. This surgery took away the active life I once had. Based on my experience, I do not recommend Dr. Lobo at all.

I would have given a five star review until Dr. Mancini terminated me (a 69 year old woman with…read moreunderlying conditions) as a patient during the pandemic without even the courtesy of a phone call. I was a long time patient of Dr. Mancini. It is a concierge practice and I paid for the care of a doctor. When she went on maternity leave I wished all the best for her. I was not happy to find that she hired a nurse practitioner to cover for her rather than a doctor. I had excruciating pain on my left side near my rib. I did get an in person appointment and she said I had a bruised rib. She said I could get an x-ray. She called to say the x-ray showed an enlarged spleen. I was concerned and saw the nurse practitioner who sent me to the emergency room "in case my spleen exploded or something." Luckily I went to the emergency room where I was diagnosed with Costochondritis - a muscle problem that causes extreme pain. This should have been obvious since I have chronic muscle pain. My chiropractor in NYC, bless him, knew exactly what it was and how I got it and has made the pain lessen considerable. I went back because the nurse practitioner wanted more blood tests. She called to tell me that something was high. I asked if I could call to discuss the blood tests. She said no. I decided to get a complete exam in NYC (I live in NYC and in MA). Turns out is normal for the spleen to enlarge slightly when the body is under stress as it is sending out more white cells. My bone density is good and all my pain is muscular. My heart is good. I have lost 40 lbs and gotten my sugar down from 11 to 7.5. Still have to get it to 6 - but you would think these would be things a medical practitioner would know and want to share with me. When I asked when Dr. Mancini was returning I was told August 17th. I got this e-mail from her. "Jan, It has been brought to my attention that you have been unsatisfied with the care you have received since my going on maternity leave and were upset by my taking maternity leave in general. I was also made aware that you were verbally abusive, using profanity, towards our office manager. For these reasons I feel it best you find an alternative primary care physician. I am sorry it has come to this, but I feel the doctor-patient relationship has been irreparably damaged. The date of termination is August 1, 2020. - Dr. Mancini No phone call. No response to my e-mail replies. I was unsatisfied with the care I was given because I was misdiagnosed and not given appropriate information. I never was upset by Dr. Mancini taking maternity leave - I wished her all the best. All women need maternity leave. I did use profanity. Walking - in excruciating pain - to the office - I was made to stand outside in the pouring rain when they knew I was there for over 10 minutes. When I came in I said, "No patient deserves to be treated like s**t. I am a human being." I have a Masters in Counseling degree and if a patient of mine who had always been friendly and responsible reacted that way I would view it clinically as a sign of extreme stress (which it was) and would have checked in to see if they were okay. I have been in other medical places during COVID-19 and strict protocols never involve patients being locked out in the rain. I would have lived with all of this because of COVID-19 but the fact that a doctor would terminate a 69 year old patient with medical problems during a pandemic without even the courtesy of a phone call is inexcusable. When I found Elitra Health in NYC I actually cried during my exam because it felt so good to finally have an intelligent, competent team of people caring for my health. Dr. Mancini also prescribed inappropriate medication but that is another story.

As I started moving into my 40's I realized I needed to take my health a lot more seriously than I…read morehave been when I was younger. I signed up with Gold Direct Care after I heard about what Dr Gold was doing. I was drawn towards the idea of having a doctor who will spend as much time addressing my concerns as necessary. I have been pretty disappointed with 10 minute consultations with previous doctors who don't have time to listen and never really get down to the root of the problem. I got the feeling that they have to make a very quick decision and hope for the best. Try this, take that, come see me again in 6 months. I realized that I have to take my health seriously. Good health is one of the most precious things we have. I made a clear and conscious decision that I do not want to be part of the herd anymore. I wanted a doctor who I have access to. I wanted a doctor who truly cares and who knows me, and I wanted a doctor who had the time to do his job properly with my best interests at heart. I have been with Dr Gold since he started his Direct Primary Care practice, and I am completely satisfied. My first consultation was over an hour. I send him emails which he responds to right away. I have his cell number and I have 24 hour access if I should need it. (Not that I think I will, but it is a comforting thought.) I had a chronic health issue for quite some time, and nobody has been able to get it under control. With Dr Gold's care he had it taken care of within the first month. We spoke often and tried different prescriptions. He consulted with other specialists and before long had the whole situation under control and everything back to normal. I did not get kicked around from one specialist to another, from one test to the next. In the end it was his direct pragmatic approach that solved a complicated situation without having to send me in for a complete "refit". It is also a pleasure to work with him. He has a great sense of humor and a nice personality. It feels like you are talking to an old friend, which takes the anxiety out of visiting the doctor. If anyone is on the fence on whether this is a good fit for them, take it from me, you will definitely not be disappointed. If you take your health seriously, this is a smart investment. Investing in your health is investing in yourself and your future. Dr Gold practices modern medicine with a traditional approach. Everybody wins! I can't recommend it highly enough.
