Complete waste of my time…read more I arrived early, filled out the long e-verification and history chart and got an ultra-sound prior to my visit as mandated by my insurance company. I had to wait 1 hour and 15 minutes to see the doctor, the practice wanted me to take another ultra-sound because they didn't read my chart and realize I had already taken an ultrasound the week prior and had sent the chart and scans to them. Doctor didn't look at my leg nor my chart nor my personal history. Entire visit could have been covered in an email. Go get a pair of compression socks and come back in 3 months. $50 co-pay and half a day off work for that, wow thanks. You couldn't tell me that on the phone? No educational materials, no consult, and doctor was visibly annoyed the entire time. I have no idea why. Bizarre. Leg has been throbbing for 2 weeks, low level pain but difficult to sleep, that's normal according to this practice. Again, could have been a phone call or email.

I was a little skeptical at first when it came to getting poked a bunch of times with a needle. I'm a needlephobiac (if that's a even a thing. If it's not, I'm making it!) Suffering from exhausted legs and circulation is no fun. After doing my research I decided I wanted to give varicose vein injection a try. No one likes exhausted legs nor spider veins on them. Am I right or am a right? The Vascular experts right away set me up for an appointment and explained the process through the phone to make sure I was taken care of and answered all of my many questions. Upon arrival to my first treatment, Dr Howell explained the experience to me. She even went to the point of warning me before every "pinch". She had the most stable hand and relaxing demeanor to her. Every time I got "pinched" I would barely feel it. Her voice was very calming and soothing and her whole vibe just kept me calm during the whole procedure. After doing my two sessions, I definitely see huge improvements and she sure did an amazing job. Of course, two sessions will not remove everything but at least it will for sure alleviate the whole situation and make your legs less veiny. After each visit, she made sure to do one leg at a time and carefully wrapped it and explained how to take care of it. Recovery was quite fast. Compression socks are highly recommended. Mild bruising but nothing crazy. I told her I'd definitely go see her again even without the Groupon. I would love to finish my whole treatment with her since she's so awesome. Highly recommended!

Totonelly, one of the finest medical doctors in the Hudson Valley, with over 30 years of experience. In my first visit to Dr. Totonelly an ultrasound was performed on both my legs which helped to identify damaged veins. I was then very well educated by Dr. Totonelly regarding the varicose vein treatment I was to receive to relieve my vascular problems. I was really happy when my Aetna insurance approved the surgery, called Endovenous Ablation. That surgery was done in the office under local anesthetic and no hospitalization was required. It took approximately 45 minutes per leg, which were surgically repaired with a one week interval between the two surgeries. In both instances I was able to walk without any problems the same day of the respective surgeries. Amazingly, within a couple of weeks after the surgeries I STOPPED FEELING burning and annoying pain in my legs. Dr. Totonelly further advised me about cosmetic Laser spider vein treatment and Sclerotherapy to both legs. I received 4 treatment sessions to address my numerous spider veins. I could not believe it, but the treatments resulted in the complete disappearance of huge brown spots on my legs caused by poor blood circulation. With my spider veins now vanquished, my legs currently have a healthy , young look. I am very pleased to be a patient of Dr. Totonelly and his very friendly, very well trained staff. Dr. Totonelly has such an amazing, compassionate personality. He's a highly trained, highly skilled professional, as well as an incredible human being with a huge heart. He is truly dedicated to his work and he really cares for his patients. I learned Dr.Totonelly not only does treatments of the veins but also does amazing facial and body laser treatments . His great work returns health and youth to people. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Elena.

I was at Elmhust hospital in Queens first and they did not want to operate on me because it was too much of a high risk surgery and they sent me home and hoped for the best. Dr Rochman performed surgery on me at St. Joseph Hospital in Bethpage Long Island, NY, he operated on me three times to save my life and he never gave up on me, even when the hospital decided I should go to hospice, he still insisted I can be saved and he did save my life. Everybody at St. Joseph's who knew about my case will say that Dr. Rochman saved your life and he would not give up on you. They say Dr. Rockman did what other surgeons were scared of doing, he operated on me and even when the recovery was very difficult he knew he could save me and he did it. He operated on me a total of six times, he preformed a jejunostomy proximal, jejunostomy distance, illeonostomy and colostomy, I had four tubes attached to my abdominal are all at once , I was relaly very sick, one by one He closed the ostomies and the las one was the colostomy that took little over a year to be closed. Dr. Rochman didn't even charge for the last two surgeries. This person is the best and kindest and caring human that God has placed on this earth, right now my eye are tearing for the gratitude to him. I am alive now thanks to his knowledge, experience and good heart. Thank you Dr Rochman God bless you always. Cristian Onofre.

Thanks to Dr. Sanderson and his amazing staff, I was fortunate enough to be one of those people. The care I received before my surgery, during my hospital stay, and my post-op care have been the best I've ever received! I had my surgery 7 weeks ago and I'm doing great!
