Let me start out by saying how abhorred I was by the reviews about Dr. Gelbert! Not only do they…read moreinaccurately reflect her and the medical office, but, in fact, they convey the complete opposite of the truth! I have been Dr. Gelbert's patient for almost 11 years, before me my parents and grandparents saw her as well (and continue to do so), and I can soundly say that she is amazingly genuine and truly cares about her patients. But before I praise her virtues, let me address the comments made by previous reviewers. Yes, there is a fairly long wait to see the doctor. However, the wait indicates high demand! I don't know about you, but I would trust a full medical office over an empty one with my health and that if my family, despite longer wait times. Furthermore, my average visit with the doctor has been well-over 45 minutes, nothing like the "10 minutes" claimed by some. Staff were helpful, the office was very clean and comfortable, and help was always available in both English and Russian. Now, back to the doctor. Dr. Gelbert is extremely knowledgeable, and it most definitely shows. I can say, unhesitatingly, that fully and utterly trust her with my well-being and that of my loved ones. She has a smile ready for her patients, many of which have been loyally visiting her for more than a decade, referring family and friends as I have. She has treated a variety of maladies afflicting me and, I for one, have no complaints! Dr. Gelbert is, hands down, one of the best doctors, not to mention family practitioners, in Brooklyn and in the city!

Deceptive Billing, Unnecessary Blood Tests, and Public Humiliation…read more I scheduled my appointment through the clinic's website, which clearly stated the $300 fee included both the medical exam and completion of Form I-693. When I arrived, the receptionist confirmed this. Even the doctor told me--without me even asking--that the $300 covered both the appointment and the documentation. He said a blood test might be an additional charge and necessary to complete my I-693 which I agreed. I had already provided proof of all required vaccinations, and blood test that I got in another clinic and my insurance paid for it, so there was no medical reason to run any tests. Still, they mentioned one specific blood test, but then performed a different one that I did not need. When I returned to receive my results, I was suddenly told I had to pay another $300 to complete the documentation(form I-693) completely contradicting what both the website and staff had previously confirmed. When I questioned it, the receptionist began yelling at me in front of the entire waiting room and refused to finalize my paperwork unless I paid again. It was deeply unprofessional and humiliating. After leaving, I called the clinic to clarify. They told me the website was "wrong," and that the true cost was $300 for the exam and another $300 for the form (I-693) something never disclosed at any point. I requested a detailed, itemized bill showing the charges for both the appointment and filling the form but they refused. All they offered was a basic credit card receipt. When I finally received a billing summary, through email they cc two more people who could see all my bill and personal information, however they didn't disclose the charges and instead just sent me a total of due without specific information, so i had to request a disclosed bill and when I got it,they were charging me for hepatitis b, varicella and MMR titer and i had the vaccines for all these (I gave them my vaccine record including vaccines for these diseases so not blood test was necessary) This clinic is dishonest, lacks transparency, and operates unethically. They performed unnecessary medical procedures, changed prices after the fact, refused to provide proper billing, and publicly humiliated me. I strongly urge others to avoid this place at all costs

This medical office can be hazardous to your health!…read more I chose this office for a general check-up as I had not gone for one for several years. It was nearby, and the picutures of the office looked decent. I was able to make an appointment the next day, which was convenient. But, that is where the positives end. To start my exam, I saw a very nice young woman, but she was not a doctor. She was a PA. Spoke to me about my medical history, etc. I told her I was having an issue with my foot. A few days before, I went to a podiatrist (at a different location/office) and was told that I had injured my foot. I showed the PA my foot, and she said it looked normal (when it is more swollen than my other foot). So, who do I believe? The PA at Dr. Yuryev, or the podiatrist I had seen the week before? Well, the podiatrist ordered an MRI. I went for the MRI, and I have six stress fractures in my right foot. So much for the PA at this office for spotting an issue. Which, of course, they didn't. Then a blood test was taken. I received a call the next day from Dr. Yuryev's office to inform me that they have the results and that someone will call me to discuss. I then got a call from another PA at Dr. Yuryev to discuss the blood test result. First, he went over the good points. Then he went into the bad. I was told that I am anemic, with hemoglobin, hematocrit and RBC all below reference range. The PA told me that in addition to being anemic, I probably have a slow bleed inside of me, probably a tumor in my colon, and that I may have colon cancer. Well, when I heard that, I of course was quite upset. What is strange is that I have no pain and when I looked up the symptoms of colon cancer, I have none of it. I'm not tired all of the time, so I don't know how I could possibly have anemia. I was then told to see a gastroenterologist for a colonoscopy. I was given a reference to one from their office. Called the reference. An appointment was a month away and it was only a 10-minute video visit. That really isn't good enough. I found out on my own that I should have the blood test retaken and get a ferratin (Iron) blood test. So, what did I do? I went and found a really great gastroentrologist in Manhattan. Quickly got an appointment. Met with a real doctor this time. I showed him the blood test result. He said I shouldn't be too worried over it. He retook the blood test. And did a ferratin test. The result? Everything was in range! What a relief. The ferratin test showed everything with my iron levels was normal. Didn't look like I was anemic. While I was at the gastroenterologist, he set up a colonoscopy. I had that procedure done. The result? All NEGATIVE! No polyps, no tumors, no bleeding, nothing. I am NOT bleeding inside my colon, as I was told I probably was by the PA from Dr. Yuryev's office. I went into Dr. Yuryev's office feeling fine, and left being sick from what I was told. Thankfully it all worked out fine for me in the end, but the experience from Dr. Yuryev's office really scared me and worried me to no end for a couple of months until I knew the real results. What a lousy experience. PAs really aren't good enough. You need to see a doctor. With New York State now allowing PAs to administer your health care instead of a real doctor, more stories like mine may emerge. Moral of the story? Don't go to a doctor in Brooklyn. Always go to one in Manhattan if you can. There IS a difference!

Dr. Ira Steinmetz is a Rare Gem in Doctors. My husband and…read moreI shuffled through doctors in Brooklyn to find him. Dr. Steinmetz is just a caring, understanding, well-mannered, humble, and gracious person. I have to say person, because he has to be such a person first to be a doctor with those qualities. Not to be ignored is his staff. His staff is just as courteous and understanding. I read reviews putting them down - but I beg to say, the person writing such a review, doesn't quite have an understanding of what to expect from an office staff in such a delicate yet fast-moving environment, attending to phones, patients, and any requests of the doctor...

I'm a separatist; I never mix my yoga flow with Pilates. Anyway.... Last week, I was offered an 1:45pm appointment to see Dr. Khanukayeva for the first time after learning that she was accepting new patients. The goal was to have her as my and my son's PCP (He was offered the 2:00pm slot after me). We arrived today a little before 1:30pm, entering almost a full house. It didn't take much to keep from rolling my eyes or shaking my head. I'm an adult, but I definitely felt like it wouldn't have come across as rude if I had. I knew we'd wouldn't be seen at the time we were invited to come in. I saw the sign-in sheet, which was for two doctors, and asked if there was a wait. I was told by the receptionist - all ready for a day of sun-n-fun at Coney Island in her t-shirt and denim short shorts as opposed to scrub tops and bottoms - that there'd be a bit of one. My son and I completed our paperwork at the desk then took a seat. At a little before 2:00pm, I approached the front desk and asked the receptionist if we'd be able to be seen by the doctor by 2:15pm at the earliest. I don't remember her exact words, but she was nice about it and said something along the lines of probably not, and that she'd just finished our paperwork. I said that we'd have to leave, and she replied, "okay". And that was that. My son and I left. No Dr. Khanukayeva. No intake. No referrals ('cause there were other concerns my son and I had and were seeking care for). And no apology. I'm not sure if Monday afternoons are a bad day or if someone doesn't understand how to schedule or what. But I don't remember ever having to wait for a doctor's appointment in an office that takes appointments. Someone's draggin' Dr. Khanukayeva down, and it'd serve her well to look into it. It's so embarrassing when women can't show their talents in a historically male-dominated field such as medicine. WHO RUN THE WORLD!!?? No one in suite 404 at 2148 Ocean Ave. Deuces, Dr. K.
