I went back a few weeks later for back pain and she seemed very rushed and dismissive. She said she was going to refer me to an orthopedist , I said I went to a few already.

I now found out that she left the practice and did not give any information as to where she was going.

It was mid week and plenty of time for it to get done on business hours. I never received the prescription or the call back. Needless to say I'm looking for a new doctor. I wish her well, but I never felt the same in return.

As a 50-year-old Black woman who is generally healthy and feeling good most days, my main focus…read moreright now is wellness--how can I optimize my health as I age? Lately, I've been struggling with moodiness and low energy, which led me to start researching hormones and their potential role in my symptoms. That's how I found Dr. Fuksina, and I am so pleased I did! From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed. The front desk staff was friendly and efficient, quickly verifying my health insurance and intake forms, which I had emailed on the day of my appointment. After a short 15-minute wait, I was seen by two different nurses/nurse practitioners, both incredibly kind and thorough in their questions and examination, taking standard vitals. Then came the star of the show, Dr. Fuksina. From the moment she entered the room, I knew I was in the right place. We had a wonderful, in-depth conversation about my wellness goals, lifestyle, and the latest bloodwork I had brought with me. I had done quite a bit of research on peptides and emerging compounds, and she openly and knowledgeably discussed them all with me--something I greatly appreciated. Dr. Fuksina spent over 45 minutes with me, carefully listening and offering insightful advice. She didn't just focus on what's wrong but instead took a proactive approach to how I can feel my best. That's exactly what I was looking for--a doctor who specializes in wellness, not just sickness. I want to co-create my health journey with a doctor who is invested in seeing me thrive, not just treating issues when they arise. She ordered a comprehensive panel of specialized labs, and when I went to Labcorp, even the technician asked if I was working with a holistic doctor because the tests requested were so thorough. That, to me, was a sign that Dr. Fuksina is truly invested in understanding the full picture of my health. I'm now eagerly awaiting my lab results and excited about the personalized plan Dr. Fuksina and I will craft together. If you're looking for a thoughtful, well-researched, and incredibly thorough doctor who will truly partner with you in your wellness journey, I highly recommend Dr. Fuksina!

NOTE: Apparently Dr. Bekhor's office figured out who this review was written by and I just got a…read moreletter stating they "wish to end our physician-patient relationship." I didn't know retaliation against a patient for posting a partly negative review was something a professional who had collected a substantial amount of fees for services from my appointments was a real possibility, but there it is. I was previously going to the same primary care doctor in NYC for ten years with no problems before I had to switch because of insurance. I have been going to the same dermatologist for years and we have a really good relationship also. Three "not currently recommended" reviews for another of the four Village Park doctors tell very similar stories about the office staff. Word to the wise I guess. Dr. Bekhor teaches at nearby NYU and is no doubt highly knowledgeable and professional and concerned and seems to listen to the patient. He is relatively youngish and wears a dark suit all the time, something I've never seen before for an MD. He is often sitting behind his laptop when you enter and may not get up from behind it during the appointment. (All records are on computer, not paper, and previous computerized data about you from elsewhere might show up, which is a good thing.) If you bring up something new that might make an appointment last more than a certain time you may find you have to make another appointment and come back next week. Yes, I was a bit taken aback when that happened The practice also has several other doctors. I got an initial appointment fairly quickly and the office is conveniently located a block from the West Fourth station. Like a lot of NYC doctor offices, the office is very cramped for the number of employees and the examination rooms are as small as they could possibly be, as is the tiny bathroom. The copier is in the waiting area about two inches from the chairs. I have had to go to various NYC doctors and dentists and most staff and doctors are great. But like in some other NYC doctor offices, some of this staff seem rather less professional than they might be - much more so than I've experienced elsewhere. The receptionist likes to play Spanish pop music on her computer speakers (or small radio of some kind) and seems to prefer gossiping with staff members and making personal phone calls and opening snacks to greeting patients or doing much of anything beyond the bare minimum, and then only with the clear attitude that you might be interfering with her busy life with your presence. She talks loudly in Spanish all the way down the hall to other staff so everyone in the waiting room can hear, if not understand. When you arrive don't expect a greeting or a smile or even any indication she is aware of your presence. Do expect to stand at the counter for some time waiting while watching any or all of the above. I unfortunately had to provide some medical documentation to a federal agency under some time pressure and eventually was referred to a Leilani, after she did not return my phone call and the office did not manage to call another doctor all day after previously not taking care of the issue for a week. She seemed to be much more about being rude and very defensive than complying with any requests in a timely or accurate manner. Later requests in person in the office for records being sent or received from other doctors or to the agency were handled efficiently and in a friendly manner by I believe the same person. A week later I called back and was transferred to three different women, none of whom seemed to know anything except that the document was not there. Usually I was abruptly transferred without a word. One of them just hung up. The last one finally said I had to talk to someone who wasn't there. I was in no way verbally abusive, but just flatly stated the facts. I was an EMT-B for six years and have worked a long time for a federal agency where most of my job is dealing with the general public in person and on the phone in often very busy circumstances, so I don't think I have super unreasonable expectations about either medical providers or customer service. I am expected to be and am polite and as efficient as possible even with the very occasional rude or hostile customer. The other comment here about administrative support at this office being "a bit of a mess" is certainly more than true. But at this point I can't give anyone the benefit of a doubt or chalk it up to being too busy. More like too incompetent, rude, and uncaring. I would strongly suggest hesitating before making any doctor in this office your primary care doctor.

Plus, he's Canadian, so what's not to like about that? I got to see one of the other doctors (Carter) in the practice on a follow-up visit once, and he was great. Just like mom said, you are a reflection of the company you keep, so I'm thinking that's reflected in the office. The doctors here seem pretty engaged with patient care - they're not yet thinking about nothing other than their retirement. The front desk staff is nice enough, and if you're nice to them first, that goes a long way. I never understand what they say when they leave me a message, but I always have my appointment reminder card handy so I know if I'm going to have an appointment or not. They office is also very responsive to email requests for prescription items/authorizations when your insurance company is being silly/stubborn, so I appreciate that.
