Arrived 45min early for my appointment immediatly when i approched the front desk young lady seemed not too happy very dismisive while sucking on candy, she provided me a link texted to my phone which didnt work so then i was given a IPAD, towards the end of me filling out online form it asked for my CC to save on file i declined not comfortable leaving my CC information on file, when i informed the lady at the front desk she said it was office policy again I did not feel comfortable leaving that information but i can pay the co pay, she rolled her eyes sighed and told me to have a seat, waiting and waiting another PT came in and was registered and then called in so i approached her again she was again her attitude body language just told me i had to wait but never collected my co pay or registered me so i left after waiting over an hour and to be met with rude dismissive behavior. doctors need to keep in mind their staff is their representation.

Terrible experience. Overly crowded, staff was poorly managed and had terrible bedside manner. Took me nearly an hour to even be seen by the doctor, who is very nice and I absolutely would see again if it was in a different facility. I had to leave during the middle of the appointment as the experience was so disheartening and traumatic.

I was very moody this day, but dr. Gonzalez-carabello saw through that, and treated me like I was his only patient, with patience and respect. I will be a repeat client. ??

I felt heard for the first time. All the issues that were bothering me got addressed. In addition to this I felt extremely comfortable.

I’d give Dr. Amilcar Gonzalez 10 stars if I could! He was very concerned about my health and it felt like he was more than a doctor, but like a family member of mine. He is probably one of the best doctors I have ever seen in my 19 years in NYC and I have seen some. I highly recommend Dr. Gonzalez! Thanks!

My original doctor was not in and I saw Dr. Gonzalez and I'm glad I did. Having a different lense seen and understood by a different doctor is actually awesome. I'm glad I have 2 primary care doctors I can depend on.

I was looking for a new primary doctor cos mine just returned and chose to see a male physician for the first time as I only see female doctors but I feel like I'm in good care. Dr Gonzalez has good bedside manners and made me feel comfortable. He's also well poised and professional.

I had excellent care with this practice. Dr. Gonzalez is amazing. I was briefed and prepped for an upcoming surgery and he was very attentive to detail.

I hadn't done my annual physical in awhile and met with Dr. Gonzalez and without bashing me of being a bad patient, he made me feel helped and hopeful. I knew I found a great doctor just off of that fact alone. Dr. G is the best and we need more like him in the medical and health feild.
