    I've been a patient in this office for over 25 years. I see Dr Savino and have, on occasion, seen…read moreDr Arpia as well. Both are outstanding. They unfortunately don't take my insurance but I go here anyway and pay out of pocket because when you find a Doctor you trust , you don't leave. The current office staff is excellent as well. Dr Savino listens , cares, and takes as long as you need with each visit. The other plus is that you never really wait a long time for your visit. I think generally, the wait is maybe 10-15 minutes , if that. Obviously, things happen when it's longer but that's very rare. I always recommend them. Best Doctors on Staten Island as far as I'm concerned.

    Office staff rocks. Always return calls and/or emails right away and they are also very nice. I see…read moreDr. Arpaia and I think he's wonderful. He's extremely thorough and listens to his patients, which I think is sometimes lacking with many medical professionals. He recommended testing for something just by looking at me and turned out he was right but thankfully it ended up not being something very bad (I prefer not to give my medical history which makes this sentence read awkward lol). Basically, he's just an awesome doctor and I can say easily the best I've encountered in years. I travel from Brooklyn to see him bc I will no longer trust anyone else with my medical care (I realize BK to SI isn't far but there are tons of doctors in Brooklyn)

    Always thought this place was great Due to some personal…read moreissues I had to cancel some appointments I guess they didn't appreciate it so I finally get and keep my scheduled appointment with Dr.Yang and I do t even see him I am seen by a snippy PA that informs me epidurals are no longer done at that location and if I wanted to go to the Brooklyn office I could then she proceeded to tell me they don't give anesthesia at that location Well there's no way I'm not getting knocked out so I continue to inquire about other alternatives to another issue I have and she said a surgeon !! What ??? There are other options before having surgery ! I think they were just annoyed that I cancelled some appointments so bye bye Dr.Yang and a word of advice be more selective on the PA's you hire !! She's lucky I didn't tell her where to go and how fast to get there Little biatch !

    My mom has been to the Hylan Blvd. office a few times for her lower back pain. They were good up…read moreuntil our experience last week which was more logistical than medical. My mom has an 11:45 am follow up appointment. There was traffic on the way there so I called the office at 11:30 am while I was driving (from my hand free gps system) and told them I was running late but would be there by noon. The person who took my call said I had a 15 minute grace period so that should be fine. She said she would let the front desk know I was running a little late. I got there at exactly noon and the front desk told my mom everyone has left for lunch and she has to wait until 1 pm. They were cut and dry and cold. I explained that I called at 11:30 am. One person said they didn't get the message and one person said they did but later. We waited until 1pm and saw the NP Lauren. She was great and very apologetic and empathetic. She said the front desk told her my mom checked in at 12:10pm which was a lie. I'm a Pediatrician and understand well how patients are booked and what 15 minute grace periods mean. My front desk staff doesn't make up check in times. And as a provider, I still see patients who are running a few minutes late. Moreover, my mom is elderly and walks with a cane. The lack of empathy and understanding that the front desk could clearly see (elderly mom on one side of me and young child on the other) really surprised and disappointed me. Also why is this office even booking 11:45 am appointments, when they don't honor the grace period, and when the entire staff breaks for lunch at noon. The template needs to be changed !
