He is thorough, has the expertise, immense knowledge, patiently listens, and is compassionate. He's helped me to differentiate when my anxiety and asthma intertwined to know if it's asthma or anxiety. He gave me all the tools which significantly reduced my sinus infections and bronchitis. He is the most exceptional doctor, and I will be forever grateful to him. I have since moved to Florida; yet continue to use all the information he explained to me and his tools to remain healthy.

Dr. Segal is very knowledgable and is the first doctor to ever explain my asthma to me. For the first time it didn't seem so scary because I knew what was happening.

Highly recommend !! The office staff are great and I never have to wait

My allergies and reactions to environmental issues get treated, great samples and recommendations for free prescriptions through discount cards to cover copays after insurance pays for the rest. Started my allergy shots which are covered by my insurance as well as my allergy testing panel which is also covered by my insurance - which i know because i reviewed costs with my insurance prior to requesting the tests. i also know what my deductible is which i covered and all injections free after that. When i need refills or changes to allergy meds they took care of it, when i had concerns about my asthma they referred me to a pulmonologist and i am now happy to have everything under control. These allergy injections will be great when i no longer need daily meds.

This 19 story steel & glass edifice is totally state of the art, particularly in terms of security and patient privacy. Kiosk check in required to reach the elevator launches, and video monitor interface when completing your doctor visit. Really quite remarkable. I met my cardiologist in a private room shortly after the physician's assistant completed the EKG, and had asked me all the standard questions to prepare me for the doctor who was there to review those results, ask follow up questions from our prior visit together and remind me to exercise regularly (I do) and add more potassium to my diet regimen. It was all very efficient and reassuring. We bumped fists as he left the room, and said he would see me next year (God willing). Although just around the corner from the old Jefferson Medical Center on 11th, this new 21st Century facility goes way beyond what the former place was capable of doing. The 9th floor of Honickman felt like the cockpit of a future rocket ship to the outer reaches of scientific medicine, rather than the farthest point the old technology could take us. I was ready for the new ride. 5 Stars for Jeff's vision of the future of medicine.

Second time here. HORRIBLE doctors office. Staff (besides KRIS) acts like they came from pits of…read morehell and miserable. First time I came 15 minutes early, waited 3 hours and was VERY patient.. staff was very rude to patients and my first was OK. Only annoying part at the time was the long wait time just to be seen and they said they were short staffed and was rude to waiting room cause they were upset. Second time arriving, was 15 minutes late and GAVE courtesy call that I was on the way... which most people didn't do.. and I was seen 2 hours later. I get being late, but I was within grace period and the doctor seen another patient - which is fine but 2 hours later for me to be seen is crazy. When I asked the girl how much longer it'll be because I wasn't there for anything but a follow up of blood results. She threw it in my face that I wasn't 14 mins late and said " yeah you were pretty late so the doctor seen someone else" and I left it alone after telling her I have another appointment at 3:30. Mind you my appointment started at the asthma center at 1:20pm so that's 2 hours almost of waiting around. And if they were going to have an issue with me being late or be rude about it, when I called letting them know I'm running 14 mins late- they should've told me to reschedule instead of being nasty about it. Then when the Nurse practitioner came in- she came in out of breathe and already irritated telling me " yeah so your going to have to come back and reschedule because we are running behind and you need to do a breathing test and your skin test... and we don't have time for it. " and I told her ... I already did that last time I came. She was so confused and didn't know anything in my notes /chart. Than she proceeded to blame it on how I was late and shouldn't had even been able to come. FIRST OFF, I was within the 15 minute grace period and gave a courtesy call WHILE on the way. If you guys had an issue with being late (which is hypocritical cause your patients have to wait 2hours to even be seen) than you should've told me to reschedule. Not be rude and treat people like peasants because of being 15 mins late. Than I still was being nice and trying to talk to the doctor to let her know my story and positive experience managing my asthma with vitamins, allergy meds and helpful herbs.. and she criticized herbs and said nothing but medication will help. She also would not let me talk and was very impatient... and blamed it on me being late. She was very rude and HORRIBLE. Worst doctor I ever had in life. Did not let me talk or reassure anything I said. Horrible bed side manner. Rushed me out, very unorganized.. didn't even know why I was being seen. Did not have proper notes from last visit - was missing my bloodwork from my immune testing and didn't have that until I reminded them. She tried to tell me that I didn't get a breathing test done or allergy testing WHICH is not true and if she took the time to ask.. she would have known that. Words of advice: take the time to know and understand your patients.. not everyone is a statistic or the same. Also, I was rudely criticized by the doctor saying " how often do you smoke , cause I smell it on you" and I said I don't smoke.. and she said " well who does cause I smell it on you " how about you ask first and believe me when I say I don't. This company also doesn't do anything electronic which makes them in return unorganized and spend so much time trying to find information from YOUR MyChart.. Every-time I'm here it's an issue and it's not worth it. NP patty rexer Was very rude and kept cutting me off. Go here if you want a headache, to argue with your experience and take her frustration out on you and not give you the room to talk. The staff here acts like they work for a prison and don't greet or cater to the needs of the patience. It's all about meds, meds and being reliant on shots and them to get by. She had the nerve to say herbs don't help the immune system when half of the medications are MADE from herbs or natural ingredients.

At least 3 times I was cut off and told "what is happening with you now?" when I was getting to that point but couldn't finish This doctor also spoke very fast the entire time, to the point that I could not understand hardly anything of what she was saying because she quickly spoke through everything She was also in a rush to put the scope into my nose and was impatient during the visit She also told me nothing clinically meaningful besides saying that the anatomy of my throat looks okay Overall this was a pretty bad visit. I was hoping to get better assistance and my throat is still sore. Now I have to book another appointment with a different specialist This "specialist" was not good.

I saw the exact same doctor mentioned in these reviews, and I have never felt so dismissed in my life. I will say that the front desk staff were very nice. I actually spoke with the sweetest person who had the most gorgeous silver jewelry and bright pink nails, and she made me feel really welcome. She was lovely. Unfortunately, once I got into the actual appointment, the experience completely changed. I came in trying to explain what has been going on with me because I am genuinely struggling and was hoping to finally get some answers and she made me feel like I was inconveniencing her by being there. I kept trying to tell her my symptoms and felt like I couldn't even get a real in depth response out from her. She was, without a doubt, the most dismissive doctor I have ever dealt with and yes she just wants to stick a scope down your throat. I wasn't even done reading the paper before she was already prepping me to get scoped and absolutely rushed me to sign. I left feeling like absolutely nothing I came in concerned about was actually addressed. I wasn't looking for special treatment or for someone to tell me something was wrong, I just wanted to be LISTENED TO and taken seriously. I walked into that office smiling, genuinely hopeful that I was finally going to get some help, and I left basically bawling my eyes out. The fact that I am reading these reviews afterward and realizing that other people had almost the exact same experience is honestly heartbreaking. I should have listened. If you are going there because you have a serious concern and need someone to actually sit down, listen to you, and explain things, I would strongly recommend looking different Dr then Ivy Maina. The front desk deserves praise because they were kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, the doctor made this one of the most upsetting medical appointments I've ever had.
