Dr Chiang was extremely professional and easy to talk to. She encouraged me to share any necessary history and I did not feel hurried to explain my medical concerns. I felt very comfortable with her and felt confident that my medical concerns will be relieved and I will soon feel better I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent urologist.

I thought it was a perky, well informed visit. The staff were friendly and appear to like working with each other. Their conversation between each other and the provider was light and respectful

She’s horrible!

Doctor Vanita Simma-Chiang was by far the best part of my visit. It was my very first visit to see her and she was warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and encouraging. The office itself was Mount Sinai's institution, and it felt cold, run-down, and impersonal; the exact opposite of the doctor who walked into the exam room and spoke with me about my concerns with respect and empathy. I wish Mount Sinai was as good and humane an institution as Dr. Vannita seems to me to be a doctor.
Incredibly kind and personable. Took the time to really sit and explain what was wrong in an incredibly approachable way.. cant recommend enough
Verified patient
This particular Dr. was extremely communicative, knowledgeable, and pleasant to work with. I found that she listened to everything I had to say, laid out everything she could on the table for where I stood, asked me for as many questions as I could think of, and addressed every portion of my concern. She holds a high level of grounded confidence and left me feeling well addressed.
Verified patient
The doctor was knowledgeable but very “matter of fact” with her tone. Not the friendliest person I’ve met and certainly not the most patient. Very frank and dismissive.
Video visit
Very good experience. Friendly staff, pleasant time with doctor, who seemed knowledgeable. The only limitation in my rating results because it is too soon to know if my problem is cured
Verified patient
One of the worst healthcare experience. I inquired about treatment option during telehealth visit and the doctor laughed condescendingly, was dismissive of any of legitimate symptoms and would not write a doctor’s note for a telehealth visit. Please stay away if you have any urology concerns.
Video visit
The Doctor and her office staff worked well and made me feel comfortable and at ease very clean office and social distancing observed all had there mask on and mask available everywhere
Verified patient
I would recommend this Dr. The call was quick but she listened to my concerns and was very clear about what options were available to me for treatment. She was professional but friendly. The only glitch was that when I scheduled the appt I received an email that said I would be sent instructions on how to do the virtual call. I never received them. However when I reached out to the office one of the staff members was very helpful in getting me set up so that I could participate in the call. Unfortunately it required us to reschedule but they did so for the same day. I would schedule another virtual appointment with them if necessary.

Very nice doctor and staff.

Excellent doctor. Even though I did a virtual visit she was very patient as there was a miscommunication (not fault of hers) but overall she listen to my concerns and was very informative. Very happy I was able to find Dr. Simma-Chiang.
