Luckily, SIOMS Forest Hills was my 6th call and they do accept my mom's insurance #score Exactly two weeks ago today, I made an appointment and also, requested that my mom would be under the care of Lydia J. Lam, DDS. Yesterday, I filled out the online application while Google translating the questions so my mom can answer them. You can hop on the E or F train to Forest Hills - 71 Av station which SIOMS Forest Hills was conveniently located on the busy Austin Street. My mom and I decided to kill some time across the street at Target because nowadays you can't sit in the office if you get there too early. I looked up at the staircase and my legs started to wobble because I have a fear of heights. Luckily, there was an elevator that you can take up to the second floor...phew! The waiting area was small though with 6 chairs which you still can social distance. Oh boy, there was still a language barrier because Dr. Lam only spoke Cantonese. My mom can understand Cantonese but she replied in Mandarin. Thanks, Dr. Lam for extracting my mom's tooth today. If you need to use the restroom, ask the Front Desk Administrator for the key then walk straight down and make a right. Note: Dr. Lam is only here on Wednesdays!

This hospital is the worst hospital my father was there since Tuesday 7/7/26 and told he has blood in his lungs he came in not being able to breath properly and chest pain and they still made him wait in the waiting room can you imagine!! An elderly man complaining about breathing and chest pain and was told to go outside and wait then my daughter who is a vascular ultrasound tech went and asks if certain testing was done on him since she does testing on patients with symptoms like my dad and they said they don't do that tests on inpatients anyway I can go and on but it's too much to write they discharged him without the proper testing he was being seen by medical students who care more about how they look in scrubs and their title than they do their patients and let's not start with them also telling my daughter that he's being discharged basically he's overstayed due to his insurance are you kidding me so you send my dad home because of insurance gtfoh!!! This hospital sucks!! Do not go to this hospital!! There are no real doctors just young medical students who don't give a crap about the patients! They're just there for the paycheck!!! Ans title!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Pathare's for the last year after getting injured in a car accident. I…read morebegan seeing him to get relief from pain from herniated discs in both my neck and lower back. I have been to quite a few doctors during this ordeal and not one has come close to providing the care Dr. Pathare has given me. His excellent bedside manner has allowed me to feel very comfortable discussing my symptoms and creating a plan with him to alleviate my neck and back pain. I even switched my insurance plan to make sure I am able to continue seeing him after my no-fault insurance has been exhausted! His staff is just as wonderful! They are extremely accommodating, organized and empathetic. They are truly a pleasure to deal with which is so hard to find these days. I'd also like to point that prior to coming to his office, I went to see a different physician in the same specialty that I was referred to by my attorney. I did not see the attending until the end of my appointment. That office had a dozen residents, PA's, and nurses, seeing the patients to report back. When I make a doctor's appointment, I want to see the doctor I am scheduled to see. At Advanced Spine Care, you see the doctor you made an appointment without having to see other healthcare professionals nor a need to repeat your history several times. I highly recommend Dr. Pathare to anyone looking for an excellent Pain Management provider. I will be forever grateful for finding his office and for the relief he has given me.

Staten Island care is acceptable at Regional Radiology but do not expect same as NYU Manhattan…read morefacilities affiliated with Perlmutter Cancer Center mammography ultrasound, or bone density equipment and technical and physician staff to be same as Manhattan facilities located at Langone etc.. My experience in Manhattan facilities as far as appointment wait times were on time but at Regional Radiology the wait times before and after imaging for checking are long. The main reason I use the SI facilities is because it is convenience for travel and in Staten Island. Also Dr.'s in Staten Island Regional Radiology in my experience, mammography, breast ultrasound, are not physically present at the facility at the time of the appointment because they read the images from home via medical approved internet. I had asked to speak with the manager and asked why I was not able to speak to or seen by the radiologist since at the at the nyc city facilities I was, to go over any questions and to look physically at me for any lumps etc of concern. At Regional Radiology, my opinion and experience only, the technologist contacts the radiologist physician and describes concerns etc. to the radiologist reading the images, and one time I was connected to the radiologist on the computer and on the phone. Not the same as an in person exam. I was told by the staff manager that in the future, before making an appointment, to ask if and when there will be a radiologist on sight for the day of your appointment, as mentioned most are working from home. Regional Radiology facilities throughout SI have been affiliated with NYU for some time now, and acceptable by some of my NYU Manhattan doctors depending on imaging needed, some physicians in Manhattan prefer NYU Langone, Perlmutter Radiology, or imaging facility at the Orthopedic center on E38 th Street. My Manhattan Dr.'s, some will accept REGIONAL RADIOLOGY, so I opine only in my experience and health situation. The physicians I use will also let me know which facility they would prefer. Please know this has been my experience only and Regional Radiology in my opinion has improved since they have been affiliated with NYU, but again, in my opinion they still need to be more on board in their practices with the facilities in Manhattan.
