I was very happy with my appointment and my new provider. I will be seeing her again in one month. She was very helpful and promptly sent my refills out to my pharmacy. I got the appointment on the day I made it which is a major plus for me as my prescription had run out this morning and I've had no luck finding a new provider until I came on Zocdoc! I'm very happy with my decision.

Being physically disabled. Dr. Ngumi was both accomodating, but without the excessive delicacy I often receive (an act that can feel diminishing). For an introduction visit, we were able to discuss and cover more than I'd expected. She has a pleasant demeanor in both speaking and listening.

Lifesaver in a stormy life
Verified patientVideo visit
The provider was great. The problem is that the provider was geographically far from me and my treatment would have had to be in person. I wish I had known that before I was booked with this provider.
Verified patientVideo visit
i had an issue filling my prescriptions 3 days after my wednesday appointment this month. One wasn’t sent. One was a prior authorization. I actually booked another appointment for the following Monday to try to figure all this out, with the doctor. i left 2 voicemails explaining?, and ?I ended up being contacted Sunday night and being told to cancel the appointment, and that she would call me on Monday. She hadn’t called so when I didn’t hear back by 2pm the next Monday, i called to inquire. I was cut off by reception: i was told to “not call again” after having been a 8-9 month long patient with the doctor. I was not prescribed my prescriptions. I still haven’t been called. At this point I w?as in panic. I went to my PcP and was prescribed All of my prescriptions with refills. It’s Tuesday I still haven’t been called or communicated with in anyway and nothing has been touched in the pharmacy by her. Please publish- Ben 8-9 month long patient with accepted insurance.
