Dr. Raffinan was so understanding and definitely took the time to get to know me and understand my health history as a new patient. Some doctors brush off what you say and don't really pay attention to a patient as a unique person, but Dr. Raffinan certainly did. His office staff was friendly and helped me set up the online portal through which I can now access my lab results, etc. Dr. Raffinan also printed out a page summarizing what we discussed at my appointment so I can follow his plan and remember the details of what we discussed. I have found my new PCP since my old doctor retired!

Best doctors visit I have ever had. Dr Raffinan was very thorough in his line of questioning and offered many good tips to stay healthy . He was very open to answering questions. His staff was also knowledgeable and friendly. I was in and out of the office and back at work before my lunch hour was up.

Very impressed with Dr. Raffinan and his office in the Trinity Church building. In additional to treating my immediate concern, he asked if anything else that was going on. I mentioned that I have back and cholesterol issues and he took time to recommend diet, wellness activities, and pilates facilities.
Highly recommend.

Dr. Raffinan was kind and attentive. His staff was pleasant and had smiles for me coming in and going out. I'd definitely recommend the Manhattan office; haven't been to the Brooklyn office, but if it's anything like the one on Broadway, it's got to be good.

Dr. Raffinan is extremely professional. He carefully listened to everything I had to say, assessed, and provided me his educated opinion.
I would take the trip out to Brooklyn to see him again if needed.

I thought the doctor was great. But you should know that he splits his time between Brooklyn and Manhattan, so you may not be able to see him when you need him without a trek. That's a big stickler for me.

Most attentive doctor I have ever seen - Dr. Raffinan really takes his time to ask you about your lifestyle, etc. to find out the root of any issues you may have.

Really great doctor. I come from a family of doctors and I was more than skeptical about finding someone that I would like and trust over the internet. But I recently found myself flu-ish and in need and tried Doctor Raffinan. Excellent bedside manner. Thorough and kind. He's now my primary physician. Excellent.

A friend recommended me to Dr. Raffian and I was very happy with his care and the amount of time he spent with me. The only downside is he is so popular often the wait to schedule an appointment can be weeks.

It was always a pleasure seeing Dr. Raffinan, very nice and caring Dr. It's a shame my company changed insurances and i can no longer use him as my primary care dr.

My visit with Dr. Raffinan was pleasant from start to finish. The receptionist was professional, and I barely felt it when the nurse took my blood. The doctor was more thorough in his first-visit interview than any doctor I've ever visited; as a patient, I am confident that I have received his full attention and optimal care.
