The fastest annual physical I’ve ever had and I couldn’t be happier. The office was clean, the front desk was friendly, and the doctor answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed or overlooked. I feel like so many doctors Ive seen in NYC are complete duds but she was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend her as a PCP if you’re looking!

The doctor was very sweet and made me feel at ease. I didn’t have to wait long to see her either. She listened to any concerns I had and talked me through test result numbers I might see after blood work was done.

Such a great doctor! Listened to my concerns and gave me great advice and follow up appointments and referrals. No wait time and amazing nursing staff. 10/10 would recommend!

I really enjoyed my visit with Dr. Nikam! She was very attentive, knowledgeable and soft spoken. She listened to all my concerns and assessed them all. Felt very comfortable with her. The staff was equally great. I was seen right away. The checkin kiosk were also a plus. They took blood to test me for a vast amount of things and I got my results literally the next morning. Dr. Nikam also took time to let me know of any concerns she had through the online portal which I appreciated very much. The only thing I’d say about the office is the rooms were a bit small but besides that my visit was wonderful. Will definitely be back next year for my physical checkup!

March 15, 2023Joshua J.Verified patient
My only concern is that I asked for follow up appointments with radiology etc. and there was no records that she had done so. I probably can get it done anyway.

Dr. Nikam was attentive and on time, but the appointment felt extremely rushed. This was my first time seeing her and my first physical in years. The appointment lasted less than 10 minutes and she started to get up to leave before I was finished talking. I didn’t feel like she was open to hearing my concerns and just wanted to get the appointment over with.
