The office claimed to accept care credit then when it cam time to pay they didn't accept care credit. This was very misleading as the only reason I made the appointment is because I could use my care credit

I think Dr. R is spectacular. I see her for botox cosmetic and I am always pleased with the result. It lasts longer than any of the other doctors I have seen in the past.

Alina is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I didn't wait at all (I actually made them wait for taking so long filling out all the paperwork), she was very personable, kind, straight forward, and all around a very good doctor.
March 22, 2017Todd M.Verified patient
Not sure what other negative comments are about. She is fabulous. Very attentive, knows her stuff, and i am very pleased. Everyone in NYC is late, is what it is, butl she is amazing!
February 27, 2017Matt C.Verified patient
Actual appt was fine but I was kept waiting for more than 30 minutes when no one else was in the office or ahead of me. When I was finally seen, I realized that my wait was because the dr. was eating lunch. The treatment room reeked of fried food.

My daughter went to see her for migraines.
It was not the best place to go for this concern.
My daughter did not feel like she fit with the treatment approach in this practice.
While a patient here, an EMG was done and this was one of the biggest mistakes we made as this procedure led to a worsening of symptoms.
If you have migraines, there are other practice that are better suited to help.

Dr. had no warmth or bed side manor, referred to me as to that one over there. I spoke to receptionist 3 times cause she kept trying to change my appointment, then finally gave me a definite time but not before I called her back to find out.
The day of the appointment, I get to the office to get told that they do not accept my insurance. ARE YOU KIDDING ME, TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!
I took the day off from work and had to travel in from another borough, not professional. OFFICE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!
February 11, 2016Jerry F.Verified patient
From the first visit, I felt welcomed by the staff. Doctor Rabinovich is professional and knowledgeable. I have continued with her.
January 2, 2016Donna C.Verified patient
Horrible experience. Appointment was at 3, didn't see the doctor until 3:50. I was very upset, especially since I rushed to make it on time DIRECTLY after work. The waiting room was very dark and dreary. The receptionist was great; very friendly and attentive. However, Dr. Rabinovich was basically yelling at her. After waiting for almost an hour, Dr. Rabinovich finally saw me. She wasn't very friendly and seemed as if she had an attitude. She didn't ask questions clearly for me to understand and answer accurately. After getting frustrated with my answers, she stopped and apologized because she was frustrated at the receptionist who was apparently new and in training. She continued asking questions...everything seemed ok (kind of), until her iPhone rang and she proceeded to check it. She ignored the call and continued with questions...but then it rang again....AND SHE ANSWERED!!! Even though she didn't stay on the phone for long and she apologized for it, this is an office. Phones should be AWAY, OFF, or on DO NOT DISTURB while at work and if there is an actually emergency, the person should know to call the job before the cell. Ughs.
Conclusion
- Too rushed
- Dr's attitude was POOR
- Wait was ridiculous
Overall...terrible experience. NEVER AGAIN!
November 10, 2015Whitney K.Verified patient
I really like Dr. R. She is real, she is personable, she is professional.....and she understands the problem I have, completely. I would recommend her. I have moved here from out of state and I like her as well as my last doctor. I am so glad I found her.

My first appointment the wait was awhile all others have been reasonable.
She is the 3rd neurologist I have seen for an ongoing issue and the first to do more than wait and see. I appreciate the thoroughness.
She doesn't do any of the standard vitals and her front desk assistant is helpful and available by text.

Always took personal calls while during my visit. Even yelled out to staff to find what they were eating for lunch. Pumped me with pills, so I left,
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
I probably will not go back to this Dr. I waited almost 30 minutes to be seen when there were no other patients being seen. The Dr. did not close the door to her office and my entire consultation could be heard by the front desk staff. I did not feel like the Dr. seemed overly friendly and recommended I return to the office in 4 weeks for a follow up but for no reason. I wouldn't recommend this neurologist.

Smart, thorough and caring. She was caught in traffic that morning - hence the delay - but I wish her staff had warned me, But I feel as if i'm in capable hands.
