Verified patient
I was treated horrible by this doctor. First when I arrived the front desk said I needed a referral. I explained to them that my insurance did not require one but this rude doctor ?? who was present stated she wouldn't see me without one. I actually returned home picked up the referral and went back. I was seen by the doctor who during our brief visit proceeded to pass judgment of me and told me what she "could not do" instead of offering any help for my medical issues. If I could give her 0 stars ?? I would. I don't recommend ANYONE see this doctor.
Verified patient
She’s has good bedside manners. Soft spoken and very knowledgeable. She spoke to me and not at me. She explained everything clearly.

A very clean and comfortable environment. I would recommend the Mount Sinai Doctors office and Dr. Babu to my closest friends.

Very pleasant doc and staff
My first time visiting this practice. Dr. Babu was extremely pleasant and very eloquent in her speech and explained things to me that were of great concern. She took her time to review some test results I had bought in with me and was happy to address them although it wasn’t her practice who ran the lab tests. She demonstrated respect and kindness towards me and was willing to proceed with more exams in search for best the treatment plan. She asked questions that were thought provoking and made me feel that I was in great care with her. Thank you Dr. Babu. Beautiful practice.
