After having a horrible experience at a different Dermatologyst (I only had 2 visits at ) I decided…read moreI was in desperate need of a doctor who would I could have confidence in. After getting several referrals from friends and being bummed out that they didn't take my insurance I took a leap of fair and chose a female dr who was part of the upmc network several if my doctors are part of. I could not be happier. Walking into the office I was a little confused from the setup but after checking in with a very friendly front dear girl I took a seat and waited to be called back. The wait was very short. No more then 10 min. Dr Bunimovich's nurse took me back to the exam room. It was cozy and and didn't have that cold clinical feel many exam rooms have. After asking me several questions including any issues I was there for she took her leave and said the dr will be in shortly. When Dr Bunimovich came in she introduced herself as well as a intern who would be shadowing her. They were both very friendly and put me at ease quickly. I have to say Dr. B checked over me with a fine tooth comb. She listened to everything I said acknowledged it and game me great advice. I did have to have 2 biopsies done. She was very skilled and unlike the last biopsy I had done I could barley feel the needle with the numbing agent. She also kit it take effect over a few min. so I didn't feel it like I did at the other Dr. Over all I am so happy I found a dermatology's who I like and who can express empathy toward her patience and listens to what the say.

On the appointment day, I was soon brought from the waiting room into an exam room that apparently was never cleaned between patients, because the cleaning lady stopped by and said that she had not cleaned. She exited and left me in the dirty room. Yuri Bunimovich, MD, PhD had me wait in my gown in the exam room for 45 minutes before he finally saw me. He did a head-to-toe mole exam in a few minutes. I then inquired about some small, flesh-colored growths that I have on my face, neck, and upper chest. He did not look closely at me, so I do not think that he saw what I was talking about. He said that I probably have tinea versicolor, which I looked up and found out is a fungal infection that results in small, discolored patches. My skin looks nothing like photos of tinea versicolor. The nurse immediately sent a prescription to my pharmacy for an anti-fungal shampoo. I did not agree with the diagnosis, but I paid for the prescription and used it for weeks, and my skin growths, which I think are actually skin tags, were--surprise!--NOT cured by the anti-fungal prescription. When I had first checked in for my appointment, I paid $25 on a computer for my "30-minute" appointment, but after my appointment when I went to exit the office, the receptionist tried to get me to pay a second time. I am on the lookout for a new dermatologist.

Fast-forward to now, my son is 16 weeks old and is a complete different baby. When we came to Shaina, we were having breast-feeding troubles with my son being able to effectively transfer milk. As well as being extremely fussy and tense. Shaina's whole body approach has helped my son in numerous ways. He now is breast-feeding effectively, his rigidity has improved, he's happy, and more content. Shaina was amazing, and I cannot thank her enough. She was so patient, understanding, and kind throughout this entire process. She is gentle and really takes her time with infants. She listens and communicates very effectively. After every appointment, we received an email with specific exercises, instructions/videos, and a recap of what had been done for that session. Not only did she help my son, but she taught me things along the way and was so companionate with me during my emotional postpartum journey.

At 10:25am the technician states to all waiting that they don't do drug test on Saturday's. When she took me back to the room, she says it states they don't do drug testing on the front door and their pamphlets. If this location does not do drug testing on Saturday's then why does their office recording say they do?

She was very unpleasant and rude during the entire session. She never once looked at me but told me to sit and said "which arm?"

DONT CALL US, WE'LL CALL YOU!! Just getting an appointment is ridiculous.

Definately not up to the UPMC Cardiac groups level of patient care. So sad!!!!

I would not Recommend going to the UPMC Hillman Cancer Cener or any UPMC facilities. It is a shame…read morebecause the Doctor was super nice, but the administrative staff is just a hot mess. I just moved here from out of state and had to find a new Oncologist. I decided to try the UPMC Cancer Center. Anyone that has cancer knows how stressful it is to try a new doctor and to have to go see them every six months. We scheduled our appointment for September 2025. I called UPMC a week before to see if they were able to get my files from my previous cancer doctor. They stated that they did. The day of my first appointment to meet with the new doctor they were going through a system change which caused us to have to be there for 6 hours. I am not sure why you would schedule a new patient to come in when the new computer system is going live that day. It is already stressful enough trying a new doctor but to have to wait 4 hours to see him causes more stress. When I did finally get to see him, he stated that they had not received any of my medical files. Once I finished seeing him, they had me do blood work. Before they did it, I specifically asked if it would be covered under my plan, they said yes. Well, it was not. When I called to speak to someone at the cancer center the receptionist stated that she would have someone call me back. No one did. When I went to follow up a week and half later the receptionist stated that she was going to transfer me to Jenn who handles the insurance info. I spoke to Jenn, and she states that she is not responsible for determining where the lab work is sent. She just sends it to the pathology group, and they just figure it out. Funny part is I spoke to the Pathology group prior and they stated that it was UPMC Job to check the patients insurance plan prior to sending. Being a Benefits Coordinator in my past career I know that the pathology group was correct it is UPMC Responsibility. When I questioned Jenn, she became really nasty. The girl should not have the job she has. She has no customer service skills, and she really does not know her job. It is people like her that are making UPMC not a good place to go if you have medical issues. Once I left my appointment that day, I was told I have to come back in 30 days to go over my numbers with the doctor. It is bad enough waiting a week for your results but 30days. Well, when I went back for a follow up appointment it was not even with the doctor, they gave me a nurse to go over my numbers. The Nurse really did not seem to know too much about CLL. If she was familiar with CLL she would know that the focus is not just on my white blood cell count it is on multiple other things. Plus, our numbers tend to fluctuate. Then she proceeds to tell me that she needs me to come back in another 30 days to discuss my numbers with the doctor. So basically, they wasted my time and money again. I said no, I had discussed them with my prior doctor and he stated they were fine. When I went to leave UPMC, they were supposed to set up a dermatology appointment, but they forgot. I had to call them back. They could not get me an appointment until March. So, I decided to try Geisinger. I had to drive an hour and half to the Geisinger Dermatology group, but I was able to get an appointment for December 29th. I would definitely recommend going to Geisinger for all your health care needs. The staff was really nice and was quick to get all my appointments set up at one time. Like I said the doctor was great at UPMC, but the administrative staff was terrible and just caused more stress.

My mother had to see Dr. Levy after a vertebral fracture. I was incredibly impressed with his…read morecompassion, bedside manner, and kindness. He was very patient with her and explained things in such a way that she was able to understand things. As a physician myself, I often don't write reviews of other doctors but I was so impressed by Dr. Levy and his whole staff that this warranted a review. He did not initially know that I was a doctor so I don't feel that he treated my mother any differently or showed favoritism to her over other patients. I've had the opportunity to meet many great and some not so great doctors and he is one of the best whom I have encountered. He certainly did not fit the stereotypical ortho personality type. I would highly recommend him.

While it's super tough to get an appointment at his office in Shadyside (and the wait in the waiting room has always been a nightmare), I've usually had to drive out to his Cranberry office, which runs like butter. He has always been attentive, straightforward, and helpful with my problems. Although I never like to see him again because that means that I'm in pain, I probably would go no where else for back pain.

Nathaniel Kralik (they/them) failed my 9 month old son and is going to cost a child his/her life…read moreone day. It was obvious from the beginning that Nathaniel despises children, is miserable with their pediatric rotation, and only cared about going home, not the well being of our child. They spoke in a voice barely above a whisper, which neither my husband or I could hear over the distressed shrieking of our child. They barely listened to us appearing to dissociate while I was speaking and giving disdainful looks at my son who was shrieking in pain. They barely examined my son -checking his eyes and ears and running their fingernails over his stomach. My son had a huge stool burden -it was obvious to anyone who cared enough to look yet Nathaniel came to the brilliant conclusion that they could not feel any poop so he must have gas and prescribed a medication for that. Gas??? Are you kidding me? My child passed 2 tiny nuggets of rock hard stool for the first time in a week, had a clearly distended stomach and intestines with huge logs of poop in them, he had not eaten in 15 hours, and had puked up the milk that I syringed into his mouth -that is not gas. I tried to advocate for my son asking what we were supposed to do to allow him to eat overnight as the pharmacy would not be open for the magical gas medication until the morning and he was already dehydrated. Nathaniel just stared at me and said he is not dehydrated because he can see a single tear running down his face ignoring the fact that my child had not eaten anything in 15 hours and had one barely wet pee diaper in 15 hours (compared to the 8-10 a day he typically has). Any inability of a baby to eat is concerning and anything over 12 hours is an emergency, but Nathaniel decided he could not be bothered and just sent my child home. I left knowing in my gut that my child was not okay and had just been dismissed by a person who should never have been allowed to graduate medical school and been subjected to children. I called my son's pediatrician in the car and talked to the after hours on call doctor. She was absolutely horrified at the treatment or lack there of that my child had been provided. She said that he had all the red flags to signal an admission to the hospital - inability to pass stool, not eating for greater than 12 hours, and being inconsolable for greater than 2 hours (my son was inconsolable for almost 24 hours at that point which is not his baseline demeanor). She told us to go straight to Children's ER, which we did. Everyone in the ER from the techs, to the nurses, to the doctors felt my son's stomach and said wow that is a huge stool burden and were flabbergasted that Nathaniel had missed something so blatantly obvious. One of the doctors who saw him in the ER is going to send an email to the facility expressing her concerns over the negligence of this provider. In the ER, my son was immediately taken for an x ray which showed a heavy stool burden and opacity that was so bad they thought he might actually have a tumor (it ended up being stool, but the point is that he was so backed up that it looked like a tumor on the scan). He then had an abdominal x ray which showed that he had hydronephrosis of his L kidney and backflow in his L ureter as well as kidney stones, none of which are normal (the ER doctors felt strongly that he needs to be followed by an outpatient nephrologist to address this). He was started on IV fluids as it is super dangerous that my child had 1 barely wet diaper in 15 hours and had consumed no fluids in that same amount of time. His ER team decided that he was unstable enough to require admittance to the hospital and he spent the next 2.5 days there. During his hospital stay, my son needed 2 liquid enemas, 3 suppositories, 48 hours of IV fluids, Zofran to keep down tiny sips of breast milk, a urinalysis, lactulose twice a day, and Tylenol for severe stomach pain, and left with referrals to outpatient pediatric GI and nephrology, a plan for a repeat ultrasound in 2-3 weeks to address the abnormal kidney findings, and lactulose, suppositories, and Zofran sent to the pharmacy. All this care given to a baby who Nathaniel passed off as having "gas." My child was lucky enough to have parents who had enough medical background and gut feelings that their concerns were not being heard to take him to the ER. The next child who is unlucky enough to experience Nathaniel's incompetence, lack of empathy, and horrific bedside manner may not be so lucky. Nathaniel is a liability to Children's Express Care and needs to have his fellowship revoked to save the credibility of the business.
