I was very happy with the visit. Doctor and stuff were friendly. He was very helpful on explaining everything and the steps we need to follow. I would definitely go back
I have been going to Dr. Emma for the last 10+ years and I can’t say enough great things about him. Very genuine and caring. Immediately makes you feel comfortable which isn’t always easy for any doctor let alone a gynecologist. Highly recommend!! Plus his nurse Dolores is AMAZING, too!

Verified patient
I have been seeing Dr. Emma for several years now and he delivered my son. Both my husband and I were always very impressed by his professional but approachable demeanor and knowledge in the field. I would not go to any other doctor. He is currently training a medical student at his office and it’s clear that she’s also thriving under his guidance. I was very impressed with her thoroughness and skill as well.
Verified patient
He was very nice and the wait time was not long at all. I’m pregnant, he made me feel comfortable explaining everything to me.
Verified patient
Fabulous office staff! Dr. Emma was friendly, professional, took his time, listened to all my concerns, and addressed them all and then some.
Verified patient
I actually liked him a lot. He was not dismissive of any of my concerns and listened to me very carefully and I felt really comfortable. Unlike with other Dr's that I have come across. After a year of issues I am really hoping that all my issues will come to an end.

Verified patient
I liked Dr. Emma, I would go back again. He has the most friendly staff I have ever experienced in an office, which made the overall experience great.
Verified patient
He is the best..
Dr. Emma was inefficient, bounced around from patient to patient in the middle of examinations/questions and even answered his cell phone to carry on with personal calls during prepping. His assistants were friendly but even they seemed exasperated at his unprofessional habits. He was very rough, didn't explain what he was doing as he did it and brazenly did a breast exam without telling me he intended to do that. Surprisingly, he also did it at my follow-up appointment, which was only a month later! I regret not posting this sooner to warn future potential patients.

Always professional. thank you
Verified patient
Always running behind. Very non-nonchalant
The doctor arrived incredibly late, and once he was there he didn't seem to care very much about answering questions. He also didn't tell me anything that he was going to do before doing it. I was there for a pap smeer/general check up. When I laid down, he just put the tool right in me with no warning. Also no warning for my breast examination. Just lifted my shirt. He even answered his cell phone during his short time in the room with me. The nurse who took my blood sample was a nice woman, but a terrible nurse. She had to try three times to insert the needle into my vein- OUCH!
Verified patient
Dr. Emma was pleasant, talkative, & friendly. I liked that he has multiple offices, I attended the Brooklyn office but he had no problem scheduling my follow-up at the Staten Island location. Very convenient for people like me who work late hours.
Verified patient
Doctor is very good..but as far as sending precriptions it's not done I feel in a timely manner .last visit in January put a script in that never was sent to the pharmacy. My most recent visit the same thing still waiting on a script . Overall nice clean cozy apmisphere I would recommend
Verified patient
Always very professional and friendly, despite having to push the appointment a bit later than expected. Babies need to be delivered, so I understand the wait! so staff of nurses are always very attentive and willing to answer any questions you may have.
Verified patient
The visit was great
Verified patient
I had an allergic reaction to OTC yeast infection medication and was extremely tender and sensitive. He began to examine me which was very painful and I had clenched up. He kept telling me to relax but it was impossible with the pain. He was able to retrieve the cultures he needed to test, but I felt the examination was done in a rush and not very considerate to the fact that I was in pain.
Receptionist was very .. Slow . Doctors assistant was very rude cold and uninformative Dr Emma was knowledgable, nice and didn't rush the Appontment however I waited weeks for my bloodwork when I needed it asap .. Because he was on "vacation" and no one else could give me it . Won't be returning
I enjoyed the visit the doctor was great
Verified patient
Doctor certainly took his time getting to me as a patient. The office was busy and the receptionists were very slow and unhelpful. Once the doctor saw me, he was more likely to push prescriptions than actually see what was wrong. Perhaps I just went on a bad day, as it was the first day after a long weekend, but it really bummed me out and was not helpful. It took 2.5 hours to be seen by the doctor.
Rude staff.
He is a great doctor, my visits are always great!
Verified patient
Good experience. friendly and very professional.
