Even though my ZocDoc appointment wasn't confirmed on the app I went to the office anyway as I needed to be seen and the staff accommodated me asap. Even though the appointment wasn't on their side they assisted me. The nurse practitioner was wonderful and very nice to get all the information correctly to the doctor. They were prompt and I felt heard throughout the entire appointment.

Verified patient
Office was unaware of my 830am zocdoc appointment. Dr was not even in the office until I was seen at 945. Forms completed online were not used. Their forms were old and duplicative. Doctor said he will be updating the zocdoc availability accordingly and was very apologetic. Otherwise doctor and staff were very friendly. Front desk could do with a tidy up.
Verified patient
Awesome and friendly doctor & team. Answered all of our questions and spent his time with us. Expert in every aspect. Highly recommend.
Verified patient
Like many doctors, he went straight to prescribing meds (different types of anti-histamines, and he recommended I take two a day). Unfortunately, I had very bad reactions to all of them even though he said they were safe. I even ended up in the hospital after taking one of the recommended meds. He does, however, listen well during the visit, and his staff is nice.
The staff is a mess and unprofessional
Verified patient
The doctor was awesome!
Thank you!
Verified patient
One of the best and most honest practitioners. Really cares about his patients. Would travel from my base (New York) to visit him and would definitely recommend him without any hesitation
Verified patient
The office staff was very professional, especially the Nurse Practitioner and the Nurse administering exams and checking vitals. The NP and doctor were very thorough and listened to all of my concerns. Dr. Piniella exhibited much expertise and recommended what I believe to be the best course of action to rule out causes to my symptoms. I was overall impressed and am very happy with his course of actions, as I believe they will further drive me to discover the unknown causes to my symptoms.
Verified patient
It was an excellent visit. Everyone was nice and attentive and genuinely seemed to care. I was seen quickly and attended in a very professional and friendly manner. Really happy with my decision.

First time patient. Long wait but friendly staff and personable and thorough doctor. Friendly and competent albeit somewhat alarmist , though I suppose all doctors have to be these days
Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
Excellent experience. Dr. Piniella is very knowledgeable and friendly. I would most definitely recommend that others suffering from allergies visit him.
Verified patient
Very nice dr. Nurses were very nice. Front desk could have been nicer. The lady at the front seemed like she didn’t want to be there
Very helpful, worked with me when I couldn't get my referral. Didn't get upset at me, they are a very awesome office, with caring staff
Verified patient
very impressed with the overall experience. The easiness to book the appointment online, to the friendliness of the staff and the extremely personable treatment of the doctor and his assistants for sure was great especially in this city where customer service is lacking everywhere.
Verified patient
Physicians assistant was great
Verified patient
Dr Piniella saw me the next day. That alone impressed me. My testing starts next week and I can't wait for the results. His approach is much less invasive than another allergist who did blood draw of which all test were negative.
Verified patient
Dr. Piniella and his staff were professional, courteous and very efficient. Check in was fast since I completed some forms on ZocDoc in advance but some add'l information was needed. The Doctor did a thorough evaluation of getting my history and listened to everything I told him about my past experience w/allergy testing and evaluation. I feel confident his treatment plan is going to help decrease my allergy symptoms. So looking forward to getting some relief from an Allergist with experience.
Verified patient
