I was having a few heart issues and wound up in the ER about 1 week ago, so I searched for a…read morecardiologist and found Dr. Somekh online, he had very good reviews. I went to see Dr. Somekh today (9/13/2016) and he was FABULOUS! I was so scared, because when it comes to your heart, how can you not be? If I could say one word about him -- HE IS VERY THOROUGH! I got called in and the nurse Rakel, I hope I'm spelling her name right, was a sweet heart (no pun intended ), I told her I was scared of needles and she went out and got a smaller needle to take blood without me even asking her, she has very soft precise hands, one poke she got the vein and done. Doctor Somekh arrived shortly after and talked to me for a long time, not only did he ask me what was going on but he also asked me about my life style, like I said thorough, was very polite, his bed side manner is on point. I'm scheduled for a few more tests in the future. I'm confident we are going to get to the bottom of what is going on. Everything in Doctor Somekh's office is welcoming, the front desk ladies are so polite and friendly and the nurses are sooooooooo sweet and friendly! I left the doctors office feeling confident. PS: next to his office there is another office (it has nothing to do with Doctor Somekh) the Nurse/front desk or whatever she is.... She is like a troll that lives under the bridge! From the moment we got there she had her face scrunched up like she was sucking on a lime and had a stick lodged sideways up her butt. The only reason I'm mentioning this is that she was extremely rude!!!! To get to doctor Somek's castle -- you have to walk by the troll that lives under the bridge!

No interest in my health. Teddeo actually hurt my health…read more Dr. Matilda Teddeo actually took actions to intentionally damage my cardiovascular system. After I forwarded a lipid (cholesterol) blood test requested by my primary doctor to Dr. Taddeo so she could adjust my statin prescription, she refused to increase the strength of my statin, nor reduce its strength based on the blood work unless I came into her Bronxville, NY office in person so she would receive her fee for my office visit. I had already provided her full fees for 3 prior office visits during the year 2025 with my most recent visit on Sept 2025. In October 2025 she received my lipid blood work but refused to discuss my lipid dose requirement with me by phone and then voided my lipid prescription and several months of prescription renewals from the Fleetwood Pharmacy. Her actions may have put my life in danger since I had to scramble to find an alternate doctor to provide me with my statin and for some time I had no statins to take. I am age 71 and the statin prescription helps me fight the following illnesses: high cholesterol, two leaky heart valves, one coronary heart artery partial blockage and partial blockages in both my carotid arteries.

My experience with Dr. Edward Rutkovsky was so astonishingly bad that I feel obligated to warn…read moreevery potential patient before they walk into his office. His staff called ME and told me I needed to come in for a blood pressure follow-up. I rearranged my day, arrived on time, and then sat there for over an hour while Dr. Rutkovsky was nowhere to be found. No update, no courtesy, no apology -- nothing. When he finally decided to show up, he gave me under three minutes. Three minutes. After making me wait an hour. For a medically serious situation that is actively impacting my daily life. But the part that truly floored me -- the part that still has me shaking my head -- was hearing a cardiologist in 2025 tell me he "doesn't think POTS is real." Read that again. A heart doctor, in the year 2025, claimed that POTS -- a condition recognized by every major medical institution in the world -- isn't real. This is a condition validated by: * The American Heart Association * NIH * Cleveland Clinic * Mayo Clinic * Johns Hopkins * Stanford Medicine * Vanderbilt Autonomic Center * And literally decades of peer-reviewed research For a cardiologist to deny the existence of a thoroughly documented autonomic disorder is beyond outdated -- it's reckless. It signals a terrifying lack of continued education. It also explains exactly why he provided zero guidance, zero referrals, zero effort, and frankly zero care. He admitted he doesn't know much about dysautonomia but still didn't point me toward a single specialist. Not a name. Not a phone number. Not even, "You should see someone else." Just dismissal and confusion. My symptoms are severe. They are life-altering. And I walked out feeling ignored, belittled, and genuinely concerned for any patient who relies on him for anything beyond routine blood pressure readings. And honestly? After this experience, it's no surprise his Google rating is a 2.7 out of 5. It's painfully clear I'm not the only patient who's been treated with this level of disregard. I am requesting a full refund for a visit that was not just unhelpful, but emotionally damaging and medically irresponsible. If you value your time, your health, or a doctor who actually practices evidence-based medicine, stay far away from Dr. Edward Rutkovsky. This was not just a bad visit -- it was a red flag I don't want anyone else to miss.

NO ONE in this office has patients it is so disorganized TERRIBLE. I absolutely hate this place!!! Please don't torture your grandma, grandpa, mom, aunt uncle no one coming to this office. The doctor is just as terrible hands out referrals not even explaining what the referral is for! Always has a nasty attitude. 0 out of 10 not recommended.

Dr. Patel is the finest doctor I have ever had in my almost 70 years of life, and I have had many…read moredoctors over the years. Not only is he a wonderful doctor, but Dr. Patel is also an exemplary man. My first experience with Dr. Patel was ten years ago when he diagnosed an aortic aneurysm using imaging he performed after hearing my description of symptoms. This is a condition that is fatal unless surgically corrected. The interest and concern that Dr. Patel showed for me as his patient was extraordinary, and after going through the surgery and recovery I am good as new thanks to him. Dr. Patel is my cardiologist, but he is also my first line primary care doctor. His diagnostic skills are impressive, and he has gotten to know me as a person, not just a patient. He even remembers the names of my cats! Dr. Patel is kind and caring. He is attentive and gives as much time as needed to address any medical issues. I have found him to be available almost any time that I needed an appointment and despite the number of people that are sometimes in the waiting room, the traffic is handled very well and there is rarely a long wait. Dr. Patel's practice offers the total experience as is evidenced by his outstanding staff. To a person I have always found the staff here to be excellent from the front desk to the administrative staff, billing, technicians and assistants--all reflect the values that Dr. Patel has imbued in his office. Everyone is treated with respect and concern. His office manager, Jose, is superb at his job. The office is very well equipped and many functions including phlebotomy, ekg, echocardiograms, stress tests and more are done onsite. Dr. Patel is one of a kind. You will not find a better doctor anywhere.

That's when I decided to change my Cardiologist to Dr. Nick, he would not clear me unless I had the proper testing done.

Dr. Nick answered all my questions, reassured me that i would be ok, and made the arrangements for me to see a surgeon. Everything Dr. Nick did saved my life.

I opted for Cardiologist Dr.George Juang on Zocdoc &…read morescheduled a consultation nearing three months ahead. Dr.Juang was fiable, he called me minutes after I booked the meeting & wanted to validate my attendance. I said that I will be present & thanked him for his gesture of goodwill. On August 2016 I went to the 136-30 Maple Ave. office in Queens (zone Wisteria Gardens). At the waiting room a lovable event planner acknowledged my presence. Later on Dr.George introduced me to her as his wife Gloria. In a few minutes, a responsible assistant Angus typed in a laptop my health history. He guided me towards another room & acquainted me with Dr.Juang whom has a good neighborly personality & a friendly face. We in private discussed my health. My heartbeat alters in speed depending on circumstances such as while I stood at the hospital because of severe Anemia & had sinus tachycardia. Dr.Juang asked me if I agree embarking on taking the electrocardiogram test which I did. I laid on the examination bed & his wife Gloria entered assisting in the test by extending to me two elongated towels to cover my privates & I raised my dress below the brassiere. Various electrodes were adhered to my skin throughout my body by Dr.Juang & his wife. They both did a spectacular collaborative work. Dr.Juang provided me a graph sheet of the results as an unconfirmed interpretation of sinus arrhythmia. My heart rate changes depending on my situation & health conditions. Dr.Juang (as I requested) was polite to send a note of my visit to my physician Dr.Lin (whom he said he had heard of before) & to my internist (who is nearby in Dr.Juang's area). I value Dr.Juang & Gloria they are so sincere & humble. I have called both on the telephone & emailed Dr.Juang. Once I called Dr.Juang on his phone & he was at the hospital in middle of a medical procedure & we briefly spoke. Soon, he texted his wife & she called me to book the next appointment. I came for a follow-up cardiology visit. Previously Dr.Juang called me to verify it & I said I was on the highway. On another visit I came for the Echocardiogram & Gloria kindly told me that just one more person & I am next. At the office a technician called Max (appeared to be European) told me to please change into a paper made vest & to remove all upper clothing including the brassiere -he withdrew & in a few minutes knocked on the door. He asked my health data & I laid sideways with the wobbly paper vest & he decently placed transducer on top of my left semi-bare breast. I asked why I had to lay sideways, he said for better heart & lung position & to make myself comfortable. I questioned if the machine was working properly because it sounded erratic. He said it was & explained that he would capture 80 or so images. I heard my heart & said it was an unusual sound, he responded that it seems I have a strong heart. He asked me to lay with my back upwards & he placed transducer on my bare chest & he said to breath & hold it for three times to take snapshots & we finished. I sat & saw that my chest,breast had sticky gel. I stated that I was dirty & he nicely extended a towel & departed. I cleaned & threw out the paper vest & dressed. When I opened the door Max was there & I said if this was all & he said to return to other room to check with assistant. Max was pleasant. Gloria led me to other room where Angus took my pressure & I had to take partially off my suit, he said I was all in pieces since I had this cardigan with crochet holes to make it easier for Echo. Then,came Dr.Juang asking if Echo went fine. Gloria booked me as his last patient at 5:00PM. However, due to flood like rain I delayed much more. Angus called me & I told him I was on the highway. Angus & another secretary was there. Dr.Juang extended to me my results at the office (cardiac ultrasound worksheet) in a formal 1950s like brown print. He said he wanted it to look good. He turned off the lights & in the laptop showed my sonogram & explained the Doppler effects. Comments was mild TR/MR otherwise normal lv size & lv systolic function. Dr.George used Dr.David M.Chiang (gynecologist) office. Thus,I asked if he knew Dr.David since I would like a vaginal consultation. Dr.Juang told me he knows the guy very well & that he will text him on his cellphone regarding my interest on a check-up. Dr.Juang told me he responds in a few minutes. Dr.Juang asked me if I have seen a picture of the doctor I responded no. Therefore, Dr.Juang led me to the office, corridors showing me photos of Dr.David with public figures & of his wife. Dr.David texted back that his policy was that he could not accept new patients (it closed now). I thanked Dr.Juang & said I will book elsewhere. Nonetheless, I already had a vaginal check-up in my earlier years. Moreover, Dr.Juang & I came into accordance to schedule in the future a holter monitor reading. Dr.Juang & his wife are A+ excellent!
