If you have any concerns about your health or health of your loved ones, stay away. Find a doctor or clinic that cares about you.

patient did medical clearances in this office. They refuse to send it even on day before surgery. If you are not going to send the medical clearances, dont do it. refer your patients somewhere else. Most of the patients who were seen in this LOCATION were cancelled due to no medical clearances from this OFFICE. HORRIBLE PLACE to get your physical or clearances done for surgery.

Dr. Surick and the nursing staff are wonderful. They are very attentive, answer questions, are kind and extremely helpful. My elderly mom adores them and I see why she's been coming here for years.

Today I went to see the dentist. I was running aleast 5 mins late so I called. When i got there I registered then sat down with my two kids, shortly afterwards the desk called me to say Dr. DEMETRA ATSAVES said she isnt going to see me. I Explained all that i needed to do because i just got an emergency implant, and i really needed to be seen and i would like to talk to her she made me wait for almost 40mins and never came to speak to but said i need to get a new appointment. She is very unprofessional and she has no form of heart. I am so angry.

Questions & Answers

Yes they answer, if you’re willing to hold for over an hour. When they do finally take your call they act like they’re doing you a favor. If they don’t like dealing with the public they should find another job, maybe dealing with animals.

I am really sorry to say not only should you expect to wait interminably but any questions or concerns you may have will have to be answered by the handful of phone operators too busy taking non-stop calls to answer any questions you may have regarding a simple matter like why am I getting rejection letters from my insurer stating they cannot provide the denture you had all your bottom teeth extracted for because, after repeated requests, they failed to receive them.

Who else comes for a set appointment and no doctor comes in the room till a hour later 😂 & On hold for a hour to make an appointment ? Like seriously a joke . People have lives but okay 💯

I have never had that problem unless there's an emergency happens and yes I've been on hold for maybe 30 minutes and that's too long but we have to start complaining to the supervisor or maybe we need to start a petition I'll sign and I'm sure alot of people will We Matter Too!!!

Started at number 14 waited on hold until number 4. At 5 O clock they disconnected their phone and cut me off. Why I am on hold for almost 3 hours then get hung on as soon as 5 oclock hit.

Last week when I tried phoning, I was at "queue position 17." I waited 1 1/2 hours and then gave up. This week, I phoned and was at "queue position 8" and thought, great I won't be holding for long. I waited for over 3 HOURS!!! No exaggeration. I started at 9:15 am and by 12:18 pm I was still on hold, stuck at "queue position 3" for about 45 mins. I finally gave up. (I kept waiting and waiting, thinking someone was definitely about to pick up.) Disgraceful, unprofessional and disrespectful of others to have such a bad record for phone appointments.

Call the front desk and make sure they accept your insurance before you go. If you get no answer from the one in Harlem. You can try calling the one on 17 street and they should take the same insurance as the one in Chelsea, Manhattan.

What days are walk ins?

Moon Time | Oct 6, 2020
Drew A. Gutman | Oct 6, 2020

Everyday that they're open. But exercise patience. But you can't get controlled substances by a walk-in appointment. Just thought I'd mention that. But they have great people and if you treat them nice, you'll be taken care of!

Stop by or call the front desk and ask if they accept your insurance.

HELLO, MY NAME IS AYESHA I'M INTERESTED IN BECOMING A PATIENT AND I NEED THE SERVICE FROM A PRIMARY AND A PSYCHIC WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO TELL ME IF YOUR CLINIC PROVIDE THESE SERVICES???

Ieshea White | Oct 7, 2018
Katherine Javier | Oct 7, 2018

You can walk in and become a patient for health care, counseling, or dental care. As for dental care Im not sure you'll get treated on the same day. A physical is provided but not as a walk in. You would have to schedule an appoinment by calling through telephone with someone from the front desk. Call or stop by and check if your insurance is covered.

Is help with housing?

laureen hall | Oct 7, 2017
Shevona Taylor | Oct 7, 2018
