Dr. Rajiv Agashiwala

Normally I’d give this place a 5 star rating, but unfortunately I was having my yearly physical and little did I know that asking something about a problem I was having with my thumb would get me charged for another office visit. Silly me, I thought this was a place where you talk about your body, but no. Did the Dr. Tell me he was supposed to charge me for a separate visit? No. He should have but didn’t. Funny thing is is that my son was there for his physical and he asked a question about something that was going on with his body but No charge. Same with my daughter. See, these corporations don’t want to make it look too obvious that they’re trying to rob you blind, just a little extra charge so maybe you won’t notice. Someone is telling the Dr’s to really crunch numbers and get as much as possible. Turns out my Dr. Made $1500.00 in an hour as he saw my daughter, son, and myself. I’m telling you this so you don’t go blindly into your physical appointment and ask something about your body (duh, I mean why would you??) to save you some headache and cynicism, just go see the specialist who works in the field of your issue. In the past, I have had primary care dr’s actually do what I needed to be done, but sadly all you get is your blood press Taken, maybe blood work, weight, and that’s about it.

Awful. Dr. Mehta had me waiting over a half hour after the nurse checked me out. She prescribed metformin and after a week had me on 2 pills a day. For 3 days straight during the afternoon I went outside and was so dizzy I barely made it a half a block away. I tried calling her twice and she didn't have the decency to return my calls. I am looking for a new doctor. And she didn't tell me what my blood sugar level was

I suggest skipping this provider (Dr. Mehta) and this location if you are able.This was one of the more frustrating medical experiences that I have had. Though the staff was all very kind, they did not make me feel as though they were competent, good listeners. I had an issue with my referrals and getting in touch with Dr. Mehta. Dr. Mehta is professional but she made me feel rushed. Most of my other issues had to do with the followup. Apparently, the medication prescribed to me was not noted in my chart. When I called with some very specific questions about how to continue my treatment they couldn't find the prescribed medication. I left questions for Dr. Mehta on a Wednesday and did not hear back until I called the office back over the two following days (less Otono, who was a great listener, made me feel as though he understood what I was asking, and always followed up as promised). When I did hear back, the answers I received were not specific enough to answer my questions. There also seems to be a lack of communication between the team. One person would call me with an update that had already been relayed to me. Meanwhile, my new questions went unanswered. This is not emblematic of a well integrated, communicative team. I took my questions elsewhere which cost me a new appointment with a different provider.

Worst bedside manner I’ve ever experienced , Dr.Dropkin was rude , interrupted me every time I went to answer his questions . Was short , made judgments about my lifestyle in regards to dietary and uninformed and ignorant statements in regards to physical exercise. Highly discourage anyone from going here , the rest of the drs are subpar as well. Someone should send them to etiquette school or simply a basic understanding of empathy. I’d give 0 stars if I could

I traveled from Queens for a 4:45pm appointment. Ran late and arrived at 4:54pm. Was still made to check in through the portal (which is a ridiculous and unnecessary process when you’re not even a new patient) and asked to pay my copay only to be told that I’m super late, Dr Mehta will not see me, I have to come another day and will be refunded my copay. Apparently there is an 8-minute grace period that no one tells you about, and then I am told that I can’t be seen because I am scheduled for a 50-minute appointment rather than a 30-minute one.. whatever that means, because Rina Mehta walked out of the office at 5:19pm, whereas if I was 9 minutes earlier she’d be staying until 5:35pm.
