I called today to see if I could schedule an appointment as a new patient. I pressed the prompts and someone picked up the phone and hung up. Then I called back and a woman answered scoffing sounding really upset. "Hello! Yea! What do you need an appointment for?! " I was fully taken aback by her behavior because I hadn't done or even said anything.
I tried to explain to her that my allergist wanted me to be seen because of my seizures. She immediately cut me off "we don't do dat here" and then she hung up on me for now a SECOND TIME. If the staff behaves like this towards new patients I can only imagine what they do to regulars. If you hate your job so much quit. This practice should be ashamed of itself. This is clearly a hostile environment. I'm glad I didn't waste my time

During my tenure of 10+ year with this practice, I have nothing but rave reviews to comment on however, a special shout out goes to Dr. Danielle Bruno for going above and beyond during my recent visit, listening to my issues and coming up with a medical plan that has proven to work for me. I couldn't be happier with this dr and always look forward to my visit with her - K. Graham

I called to schedule an appt with DR. Ahmed as an urgent matter. I explained to a VERY RUDE lady over the phone that I had medicaid but will soon receive my hmo she said NO we cannot see you sooner. I then said I will pay out of pocket as it urges me to see a doctor soon! She said NO again even paying out of pocket with no sympathy whatsoever. She must have been the most unprofessional person I've dealt with and it's mind blowing how they have people like this even working!
I had no other choice than to tell the recepcionist I would wait even though I will try somewhere else. I did tell the recepcionist even if this is urgent matter she said yes with no care in the world. I understand this may be a policy but people working here should be more empathetic to patients that they don't know what underlying condition they might be going through!

I have been a patient at this facility for the treatment of migraines for over 20 years. During this time, I have received outstanding medical care from Dr. Ira Turner and PA Danielle Bruno. I can honestly say that my life has been changed - for those migraine sufferers, you understand how debilitating the pain can be. Furthermore, I want to also recognize (and need to recognize!)the many other support team members that I have encountered over the years.
I have called upon their services so often -as insurance issues change (all too frequently I might add!), as prescriptions change - I have asked for their help in assisting me in my acquiring my medications. The help is PERSONAL, willingly and efficiently delivered. I have always felt that my calls mattered and many times, calls are returned, with detailed updates to better insure my care. I am truly grateful for all that has been done for me - THANK YOU to you all for going above and beyond. You are a credit to your profession!

Dr Ira Turner is great and does truly care about his patients but as a healthcare professional myself, I HAVE NEVER seen an office that NEVER ANSWERS THEIR PHONE! Ive been calling for over a week to try to change my medication thats had me sick and since he wasnt in i had to speak to the NP and her advise was to just up my dose which has only lead me to feel worse. Ive been calling for days and hours all day today with yet NO RESPONSE, this is truly concerning considering im at the point where i am just stopping a medication and have no clue the affects it could possibly have. I feel bad that Dr Turner is a great Dr but his office is run awful.

It's such a joke reading some of these reviews! This office is extremely friendly and beyond accommodating! Excellent doctors who saved my fathers life over twenty five years ago! The important details and bed side manners have NEVER EVER CHANGED! Yes sometimes the wait is a bit longer! Good things come who those who wait! They are busy and that's because they are amazing physicians!
They put the patients first and that's something you do not get these days! Dr. Entin is an excellent dr! I saw him over 30 years ago and he's not missed a beat! Dr. Newman still the hard working dedicated man he was! I was blessed to see a younger caring vibrant Female Dr. For my hip issues she preformed every test to help find where the terrible pain was comes from!
My review is solid not based on a bunch of crotchety miserable men a woman! I do my research! I worked as a medical malpractice paralegal for 32 years! So bless these hard working kind caring doctors!

The doctors are great but after an initial visit you see the nurse practitioner. I've known magnificent NPs but that's not the case here. She doesn't listen to me, interrupts me, pushes her own agenda. Without consulting with me, she has discontinued and drastically reduced therapeutic medications, which has resulted in a decrease in my well-being and lengthy times being bedridden.
My wellness doesn't matter, only her myopic agenda matters. If you can manage to see just the doctors, you would probably be OK. The problem is, they don't seem to do that. So, I do not recommend this practice. Just the opposite. Go elsewhere.

Rude staff - I'm in the middle of treatment with dr Ahmed and yes I did notice she was pregnant but does that mean because she's going on maternity leave her patients should put their health and tests on hold because of that? They refuse to not let another dr perform a test on me ( since I can't come the week they told me too bc I already have a commitment with work months prior) as the rude receptionist said " that's not how they roll" in response to me saying how I work for a Dr office and if he's on vacation or not in the office for an outside emergency another dr will see his patient whose in pain! Unreal. zero stars to this office.
