Verified patient
The whole process with Northwell was easy and Dr. Wanees was great. Easily made an appointment. Was seen quickly without any issues. Dr. Wanees made the whole appointment very comfortable and quick. Would recommend!
Dr. Wanees was very kind and patient, and was considerate of all of my needs and concerns. She is exactly the doctor you would hope for, especially in regards to gynecological health. Everyone at the office was friendly and helpful, and while I was seen quickly, I was not rushed in and out without having all of my needs met or questions answered like in most other doctor's offices I have experienced. I would highly recommend this office and Dr. Wanees, and I imagine all of their other doctors at this office are also superb.
Verified patient
Dr. Wanees had good bedside manner but the office never sent me my blood test results or attempted to contact me and their office is IMPOSSIBLE to get in touch with. I still haven't received important blood test results and don't know if I will at this point. I won't be returning.
