I would definitely recommend her to anyone searching for a different, more thorough approach to understanding and maintaining physical health and wellbeing.

My primary care doctor was a homeopathic MD that I was working with for 20+ years. When my doctor retired, I was looking for someone else who would give me the care and attention I need to handle my autoimmune conditions. When someone mentioned "integrative medicince" might be what I should be looking at I remembered the sign for "Park Slope Integrative Medicine" around the corner, and checked our Dr. Chiniwala's website. I am SOOOO glad I made this connection. We have been working together for more than a year. And I mean it: "working together". I don't feel alone. I feel heard and respected. Dr. Chiniwala has so much knowledge to share, but she does so without forcing it upon you. I have made significant changes to my diet and lifestyle since working with Dr. Chiniwala, and all to my great benefit. I only wish I had found her sooner.

She is thorough and thoughtful in her assessments and recommendations. She always presents a number of options and fully supports what you end up choosing. She committed to helping you work through whatever issue you are facing. She is smart, asks the right questions but also tell it to you straight! I have never felt rushed by her. We feel so incredibly lucky to have her as our doctor. Every single time either of us see her, we swoon over her for days. Simply out, we LOVE her.

She is one of the most attentive, patient…read morefriendly will go the extra mile for all of her patients doctors I have ever come across in my life.  I came to her on the referral of a long time patient of hers.   I struggle very badly with sinus infections, through her questioning of all my symptoms, and also her researching and consulting other physicians to decide the best treatment for me.  She has helped me feel better than I have and not struggle so much with them and I am eternally greatful. The experience could be better in one way sometimes I wish the staff was more patient friendly - they can sometimes not be friendly and helpful and there is a wait even though you have a scheduled appointment time. They have also lost my paperwork that I made to point to make sure they had more than once.   Reason I cannot give this a 5 star review the practice and staff overall. All in all though - Dr. Bowler is a good doctor, and I will be referring more patients to her.

Dr. Regina Sotnik is by far one of the best physician I've ever encountered. I don't really write…read morereviews, and if I do, it's not usually good. I booked an appointment through Zocdoc; thinking I'd only see her once because I just needed a quick physical. After my first encounter with her, I knew I needed to drop my PMD and make her mine. Dr. Sotnik is the epitome of a real primary physician; ensuring that you're thoroughly cared for system by system. I've never had a primary, who went through every lab in detailed they way she did. Dr. Sotnik needs one hundred stars for the work she does, she keeps it real and does not sugarcoat anything. I've never felt more cared for; more informed about my health until our encounter. Her office is clean, especially the bathroom. She does have medical assistant interns, who work with her but they are always very polite. Her office assistant, Gloria deserves a special nod as well. The wait time is usually less than thirty minutes from appointment time, if any wait at all. If you need an excellent primary, please put her at the top of your list. Best, Rhoda

The office is in a brownstone it looks like an the waiting area was nice. The Receptionist had me fill out some forms then I was on my way with Dr. Grishina. She was very nice and asked me the general medical questions & history. Then she gave me an overall checkup. She drew blood, which I hate doing but she was gentle and I didn't feel a thing. After that she told me when I get my results back she will give me a call. Which she did not too long ago. It's hard to find a doctor these days you can feel comfortable with and who aren't pushy or rude. I really like her and I feel good knowing I have a place to go to if I have an issue.

I went to visit Dr. Kokolis (Complete Cardiovascular Care) on February 22 of 2021 and explained to him what I was feeling/experiencing for that past year or so while seeing a new inexperienced primary care physician. After completion of my appointment with Dr. Kokolis, I was immediately referred and scheduled for an MRI on 2/25 of my head which determined I had a large (Tumor) brain cancer. I was summoned to Dr. Kokolis' office Within 20 minutes of returning from the MRI then sent immediately to the ER at NYU Langone. Dr. Kokolis called ahead & informed Dr. Placantonakis I was on my way and the situation on hand. Upon arrival I was moved at light speed through the process having my first lifesaving procedure of a partial tumor resection on 3/5/21. After the healing process I received concurrent Radiation/Chemo therapy. My Brain Cancer has been stable for 3+ years now. I have not had a seizure since Dr. Jongeling my (Epilepsy specialist) changed my anti-seizure medication to Briviact, also 3+ years. Now WAIT! that's not the end. For more than a year I have been experiencing chest pains, discomfort, fatigue, and lack of energy. I felt helpless with no ambition to move on. There were 2-3 more ER visits where no findings were made. I was fighting each day to get out of bed, continue to work, but yet still put on that smiley face for everyone around me. I was unhappy, in pain and felt helpless for such a long time that I was beginning to accept this is life now. I made an appointment with Dr. Kokolis and during the visit I attempted then Quit the office stress test prematurely. Dr. Kokolis sent me for a more detailed stress test where it was determined that I had a 40% blockage to my heart. Yes 40%, so I immediately began to cut down on my horrible eating habits (junk food). I was over 215 lbs. losing 20 lbs. in a short time. I continued to have ice cream and the bad things, but not nearly as much. For the last several weeks, I was having chest pain and head pressure with dizziness where I pushed it off trying to avoid a doctors/ER visit. On 10/09/2024 with no other option I walked into Dr. Kokolis's office unannounced and was seen by the doctor. Following an EKG and vitals, I was seen by Dr. Kokolis where he asked me questions while taking notes (I could actually see the equations floating above his head as we spoke and he jotted everything down) he then decided that I was going straight to the emergency room at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan by ambulance. There's no time to prepare for anything like this or an option to wait for a Loved one to be by your side. Dr. Kokolis again called ahead and spoke to a Dr. (Dr. Dominguez) and informed him that I was on my way and would need an angiogram. The angiogram determined that I now had a severely blocked artery to my heart. "THE WIDOW MAKER"which was now at 90%. I found this scary part out after the Life Saving procedure, realizing how truly LUCKY I am to still be alive. Not only am I the LUCKIEST MAN ALIVE, I am ever so grateful & thankful to everyone on my care teams. Dr. Kokolis is not only a medical professional, he is not only a Compassionate doctor who is dedicated in his field, but a true MEDICAL GENIUS who knows how and when to act. My life has now been saved for the second time by Dr. Kokolis' quick thinking & expert experience without blinking an eye or breaking a sweat. We could never thank Dr. Kokolis enough for saving my life more than once, for doing what he loves. My opinion is that this is not work/a job but his life's work and love of his profession, the desire to make a difference and save endless lives. THANK YOU Dr. Kokolis, you truly are an Angel.
