Dr Karsalia looked through the medical docs I provided, explained me what they mean and what the next steps are. I got all the blood test and ultrosound done same day, during and after the visit. Great experience overall!

Pure OB/GYN is always a great option when you can’t get in to see your primary GYN. The doctors and staff are very kind.

Verified patient
Dr. Ruchi Karsalia was fantastic. I came in with multiple concerns after not having an annual for a few years, and she addressed everything clearly and efficiently. I appreciated her direct approach and felt really comfortable throughout the visit. I plan to continue seeing her for my IUD replacement, cyst removal, and general annual care. Highly recommend!
Verified patient
I was recommended to this doctor by a friend because she had been very kind and accommodating to their gender identity, but I did not have a similarly good experience with her. I felt she was very judgmental of my weight and made comments about my physical appearance. I think she’d be a good fit for any trans/nonbinary person looking for an understanding provider, but i do not recommend this doctor for any fat patients that want a shame-free doctors visit.
I was happy to be seen right away - I arrived on time, and did not have to wait at all. The office had called me the day before to confirm my address and insurance details (returning patient). Dr. Karsalia was informative and engaged. She provided me with options and talked me through each process of the annual exam. Based on my medical history, I required a follow-up which was also taken care of very smoothly.
Verified patient
Although I like the aesthetic of the practice, I find it to be very disorganized. I needed a biopsy and had to chase down my results myself. When I called to check if they had received them, they told me they hadn't. After following up with Lenox Hill Radiology, I was assured my results had been sent. I had to go back and forth multiple times before finally having Lenox Hill resend them. Even then, instead of handling the situation with urgency, they seemed to take their time releasing my results. This experience has been frustrating and unacceptable. I will not be returning and have already made arrangements to continue my care elsewhere.
Verified patient
I had such an overwhelmingly positive experience with everyone at PureOBGYN - it was my first visit and I was in a lot of pain coming in - everyone took such incredible care of me! So happy to finally have a GYN I love in the city.
Highly recommend!
Verified patient
Dr. Ruchi was incredibly supportive and patient. She answered all my questions thoroughly and took the time to make sure I felt completely comfortable throughout the process. The staff was also wonderful—really friendly, supportive, and welcoming. Overall, I had an excellent experience and would highly recommend Dr. Ruchi and her team to anyone seeking compassionate and professional care.
Verified patient
Dr.Karsalia was SOO warm and welcoming. She explained everything very carefully and answered all my questions and even took the time to write down some of the points. She helped to create a plan/ recommendation for next steps. Highly recommend, I will definitely book her again in the future. As for the office itself, i will try to stick to their flatiron location as its much cleaner/pleasant
Verified patient
Dr. Karsalia was great - thoughtful and great bedside manner. She walked me through each step during the examination and made me feel more comfortable than a lot of GYNs I’ve seen in the past.
Verified patient
Dr. Karsalia was very knowledgeable about my concerns, and she was very thorough with her explanations. Great listener and super gentle hands.
Verified patient
I usually dread going to the OB-GYN, but my experience with Dr. Ruchi Karsalia and her team completely changed that! From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff was warm and welcoming, setting the tone for a positive visit. The nurse practitioner was absolutely lovely—so pleasant and attentive, making me feel truly cared for. Dr. Karsalia herself was phenomenal—kind, thorough, and genuinely reassuring. The entire clinic exudes professionalism and compassion, making what’s typically a stressful experience so much more enjoyable. I can’t recommend Dr. Karsalia, her team, and the clinic enough!
Verified patient
Dr.Karsalia was great! But beware about booking on zocdoc if you change your appointment time. I had originally made the appointment on zocdoc and then changed my appointment very quickly after. I was definitely within the cancellation timeframe. However, the receptionist informed me that I had a substantial no show fee charge for my original appointment time. When I asked if there could be an exception as I thought this may be due to a zocdoc error (I also did not know about this policy) , I did not receive an answer. I really don't want to pay a fine after my first time with Pure as I wasn’t educated on the policy through Zocdoc. This experience definitely left some mistrust in me about other potential hidden healthcare fees in the future and I hope that this can be resolved soon.

A Great Dr!
This was not a pleasant overall experience. The first person I saw was a nurse practitioner - she was personable and took my medical history, before telling me to undress and put on paper gown and leaving the room. I then waited for about 10 minutes in the room to see the doctor, feeling increasingly cold and exposed! I did not enjoy meeting a doctor for the first doctor wearing only a paper bag! When the doctor came in she briefly checked the medical history before examining me, but she asked only closed questions, did not ask any open questions or enquire about any concerns I had, made very little eye contact, and overall gave the impression of being in a hurry and just going through the motions. She did not seem to take genuine interest in me or in building any rapport. The combined experience of feeling very exposed and like the doctor was not caring gave me an overall negative experience of the visit.
T the office was nice and clean and I didn't have to wait. The staff was professional and friendly. The doctor had good bedside manner and he asked questions and was able to explain what he was doing. I had a pleasant visit and would recommend.

Have been going on and off to this provider for several years now. They always have appointments available and are super efficient. The MDs are efficient and understanding!
usually, when I go to the gynecologist in NYC, it’s just the Pap smear and then any additional services, they have to refer me elsewhere. At this office, I was able to get a Pap smear, a hormonal blood panel, and a transvaginal ultrasound all in one place. The doctor was very results oriented and took the symptoms I was describing seriously. The ultrasound tech was so sweet and very cognizant that she was performing an invasive procedure and checked in with me throughout. The needle stick the lab techs gave me barely hurt. I will be making this place my regular OB/GYN and recommend!
Verified patient
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Ruchi Karsalia. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate. Dr. Karsalia took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all my questions thoroughly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Her professionalism and care put me at ease, and I felt confident in the treatment and advice I received. I highly recommend Dr. Karsalia to anyone seeking an OB-GYN who genuinely cares about their patients.
Dr. Karsalia was very professional and a great listener she answered all my questions and gave me great recommendations for additional care as well as provided me with clear next steps. Also worth noting that the nurse who first saw me was incredibly kind and approachable and put me at ease. These appointments always bring me a lot of anxiety but she was very kind and gentle. It went a long way.

She was awesome. Incredibly communicative and asked for consent to touch me. Listened to my many concerns and was swift and clear communicator.
Verified patient
Dr. Karsalia was absolutely lovely. The visit didn't feel rushed at all (which has not been my past experience with other providers) and I really felt like she took the time to understand my needs and answer my questions. Also a huge bonus they did bloodwork in the office for me. Would highly recommend!
Verified patient
DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR. I had a breast infection and I didn't know it. I went to her with all of the symptoms. She sent me away with a prescription to get a mammogram. I couldn't even make a mammogram appointment until two months later. I sent her a follow-up email that same day telling her I was in a lot of pain and I called the office as well. I never received a response. The pain got worse and I saw another doctor two days later who immediately got me antibiotics, gave me pain killers, made sure I had a mammogram and ultrasound scheduled that week, and made a follow-up appointment with me for two weeks later. That is what she should have done. I would NEVER recommend Dr. Karsalia, she didn't treat me, ignored me, and left me in pain.

She was nice!
Verified patient
My doctor was really amazing. She listened carefully to all of my concerns and addressed them each without judgement. She was very helpful in explaining the reasoning behind each form of testing and what I needed to do following a diagnosis. Overall it was one of the best experiences I have had with a gyno. As someone who experiences a lot of pain during exams they were very patient and supportive. The technician performing my ultrasound was so kind and helpful.
The place was modern, staff was friendly and the doctor actually listened and helped me figure out what medicine was best for me
Verified patient
They made my first OBGYN visit comfortable and well! They answered all my questions and kept me well informed of everything they were doing and will do. Highly recommend this place! This location will be my go to
Verified patient
Her bedside manner was a bit cold and not very warm. Given the fact that obgyn appointments can feel invasive and uncomfortable, was hoping for a different experience.
The doctor was good however the staff at the flatiron front desk was absolutely horrible. I did not go back for the sole reason they made me so uncomfortable by being so rude
