“NP Patel was wonderful. Her examination felt thorough and she listened with care and patience to my concerns. She did a biopsy that was painless and fast. I very much look forward to her being my point person for my skin moving forward. The office itself is great as are the staff. I took 2 stars off because until I realized on my own I could book the appointment on zocdoc my efforts to book an appointment by phone with NJ FamilyCare was AWFUL. Called 4 times and was rerouted to a NJ line that never answered so played phone tag and basically gave up. By luck when I went to find another provider on the find a doc I discovered I could book online. Wish they told people with my insurance to do it that way instead of endless phone tag”
