    Quality of care, when available, excellent. When I had a series of issues a year ago Dr. Rice and…read moreChelsea, who worked with him, were responsive and very helpful. Why not rate 5? Because the office was TOTALLY unresponsive for years before... and again in the past year. It could be he has started the concierge device he was discussing but I have not been notified of that. In any case, it is very dangerous to have a cardiologist you can't get in touch with. The office doesn't pick up and messages never get answered.

    From the owner: In 1985 Kenneth Rice, MD, FACC, then Director of the Cardiac Stress Lab at Beth Israel Deaconess…read moreMedical Center, opened his cardiology practice in Brookline providing diagnostic cardiac ultrasound, Exercise Tolerance Testing, Stress Echocardiography testing, Holter monitoring, and event monitoring. Stress echo can be safer than nuclear stress testing because if resting images are already abnormal, there is no need to perform the stress part of the test. There is also no radiation associated with Stress Echocardiography testing. In 1993, with Joseph Polak, MD, MPH, then Director of the Non-Invasive Vascular Lab at Brigham & Women's Hospital, Dr. Rice expanded his range of services to include vascular imaging, consisting of cerebrovascular testing, peripheral extremity venous and arterial ultrasounds, and abdominal vascular exams. Talk to your doctor about obtaining a referral and give our office a call!

    So I selected Dr. Robert Dye as my husband's and my PCP since it was close to work/home and it was…read morewithin the network. My other requirements when selecting a PCP were that he/she had to be board certified Internal Medicine. So Dr. Dye fulfilled these criteria. I called at the beginning of August to schedule establishment visits. The first available they had for both of us to come in (yes, I had to make sure I went with my husband because he hates going to the doctor) was at the beginning of September, a month later. The day before the appointment, the office called to say that Dr. Dye had to reschedule so they rescheduled it for the week following. The day before that supposed appointment, they called my husband to reschedule. We re-arranged our schedule and agreed to be seen the following Monday. The office staff is small and seem over-worked. We weren't greeted by a receptionist, but given paperwork to fill out by the medical assistant. We waited for about forty-five minutes from our appointment time, and finally were seen. Dr. Dye and his associate (Dr. Ashley although I am sure I am spelling her name wrong) were very thorough about our concerns/questions, and we got along very well after I disclosed that I was a physician myself. Overall, they appear competent and friendly (but how much of that is because I'm a fellow physician?). The wait time left a lot to be desired (both for the appointment and on the day of the appointment). We will see how they do with follow-up care and lab results... but since my husband and I are relatively healthy, I don't plan on making any PCP changes at this time.

    I had randomly chosen him because he was near my apartment. I called to get an appointment because…read moreI had a cough for about a week that was exacerbating my asthma. They didnt have anyappointments for another 3 weeks but said they could fit me in the next day. The next day they called to cancel and reschedule the next day. When I went later, they had me waiting in the waiting room for an HOUR AND A HALF!!! Then they put me in a room with people's medical records on chairs and all over the room that I killed time reading (I'm sure they violated HIPPA/ patient confidentiality there!!) When I told them that I thought it was an unreasonable time to wait they said that they didnt have to treat me, and if I didnt like it I could leave and go to the ER and wait there if I wanted to. That doesnt seem like good patient care to me. I dont want a doctor who's response to a patients concern about what kind of care they are receiving to be "Keep your mouth shut. If you dont like it, go wait at BMC's ER for 8 hours." My father and brother are doctors and they said that they would never say that, that's bad patient care and poor professional demeanor. I will never go back or return for follow up care. I think I would prefer and wait in Newton-Wellesley ER, atleast theyre nice and caring there. So I am looking for another PCP. Anyone have a good suggestion? : )

    I have done work with a few different personal trainers over the years. After a shoulder injury…read morelast year I decided to get back into personal training to help me strengthen my core and upper body. I specifically chose this gym due to several reviews that specifically indicated that John has experience working with people who have sustained injuries. I also really liked that it was a private gym and that street parking was super easy. John was able to accommodate me quickly and at my preferred 6pm time. He was pretty flexible and offered some good rates. I was a little apprehensive at purchasing 20 sessions for $1200 (and having to pay upfront), but the more you buy the less you pay per session and it seemed to me that this was pretty common among personal trainers. I had liked what he had to say at our initial consultation and so I decided to go for it. Unfortunately for me that was a big mistake, and my only hope is that I can prevent someone else from doing the same. - On the website it states you get a personalized fitness assessment that includes measurement of body mass index, weight and circumferences at every workout. I was NEVER measured, not even once, in the approx 10 sessions I completed. - It also states he will provide nutritional guidance. He did this twice. 1- Asked me what I had for dinner, I gave a good answer and that was the end of that discussion. 2- Asked me what I had for breakfast, and told me to add eggs or something protein rich as soon as I woke up. - Does not provide time for stretching or guidance on how to stretch at home. First time ever I have never received guidance on something so vital to weight training. I took it upon myself to ask questions on how to best stretch my shoulder and he did provide guidance but only after being asked and never again after that. - Constantly on his phone during the one hour work out. Not even just a check here or there, CONSTANT. I grew extremely frustrated and would call out to ask him if I was doing something correctly. As a professional, save an emergency, you should NEVER be on your phone while a client is performing exercises that could injure them. - My work outs also seemed very cookie cutter, and solely based on weight training. I have had many sessions that incorporated cardio and weights and asked him about adding cardio. He said it would come in time. Half way through my sessions and there was never cardio. It also appeared to me that I was doing all the same workouts as the guy in the time slot ahead of me. The workouts rarely varied, and if they did it was by one different exercise. (One session arms, the other legs). With that being said, John was cognizant of my shoulder injury in that he would ask how it was feeling and did not try to push too hard if I said it was hurting; or he would end the session early. The problem though is that my sessions were still not designed around my injury. I know that personal training helped John after his own injury but I feel as though he thinks everyone will respond like he did, when that is not the case, as all injuries are different. Add to that the fact that he wasn't watching closely the majority of the time, and there is a large window for error. So while he did ask those questions, they weren't enough. An hour of weights on a weak shoulder was likely too much and the whole session should have been more varied, in my opinion; and should have definitely incorporated stretching. As you may have guessed by now I re-injured my shoulder. I also pulled my other shoulder performing a sit up with a weight. I saw an Ortho specialist who recommended Physical Therapy and to stop my Personal Training. I have now started intensive physio for my shoulders. I told John about this and requested a refund. Although I didn't sign anything, there is apparently a paper on the wall that says no refunds, and he tells me I can come back at anytime. When I further stated that I was injured and there should be some difference (I am not just quitting) he said he would get back to me. He never did, so I texted him a couple weeks later. He did not respond again. To me, this is completely unprofessional and irresponsible. I am now at a point where I will cut my losses of approx $600 because I do not feel safe coming back at any time, even when I am rehabilitated. Bottom line: I do not recommend this personal trainer. Please don't waste your money like I did. I have had several other trainers who are much more professional and experts in their field who I felt safe with. If you do come here I implore you to only purchase a few sessions until you know what the sessions are like, but I am telling you, this is nothing compared to what you can get with a real pro.
