Manhattan Center For Gynecology

THE WORST. STAY AWAY. I’ve been getting annual exams for 10 years. This is by far the worst. Found this through my insurers website and didn’t read reviews because I’m an idiot. Waited 1.5 hours because of an «emergency» and they forgot to give me paperwork to fill out. Then they referred me for a bunch of tests that I now assume are unnecessary after spending literally 2 minutes with me. Receptionists awful, doctors rude. Altogether a disaster. Go anyplace else. I live in fear of how they’re going to try to rip me off when they bill me.

I cannot stress this enough STAY AWAY. I’m as chill and mild mannered as they come. I’m the type of person who will apologize to you if you step on my foot. I don’t even have a Unilocal page, and have never written a review. And yet this place was so shit-​tastic that they inspired me to get a Unilocal account and write one. Thanks Manhtattan Center for Gynecology!
I got referred to this place by City MD (bad on City MD, they’re usually good), and made an appointment for 11 am. I showed up on time, and by 12:25 I was still sitting in the waiting room, waiting for my appointment to start. I have no idea what kind of emergency hold up could possibly be happening in the afternoon on a Thursday, but there were at least 7 women sitting in the waiting room. Some of them had been there before me. I’m pretty sure one woman left without an appointment, just like I was about to do.
I spent most of my 1 ½ hr wait (this not a walk in clinic btws! They take appointments!!!) in the waiting room. At one point they called me in to pee into a cup, and promptly sent me back into the waiting room. That’s it. About an hour into patiently waiting I asked for a time estimate for when I’d be able to see the doctor. They said to hang on a second and they’d let me know. I was sitting right next to the front desk, and waited 15 mins for an answer. No one said anything to me. I spent that time reading this Unilocal page and everything was eerily on point. Rude staff, long wait times, evasive answers. I didn’t even want to wait around to see what the doctors were like. I got up and cancelled my appointment and told them to throw out my paperwork and urine sample.
Also I would like to add that the receptionist was completely unfazed that a first time patient was opting to cancel their appointment and terminate their paperwork, and not reschedule. They clearly don’t care about retaining or gaining new patients. They promised not to charge me anything but I don’t trust them. I just am hoping that they don’t find a way to bill me for this total and complete waste of time.
Not to get on a soap box, but this was going to be my first gyno exam. They knew that. And they did nothing to make this experience anything but shitty, uncomfortable, and scary. And if anything else on this Unilocal page is true, I hope that the cops shut them down today. Horrible place, horrible people. Bring your business elsewhere.

The worst! First, I made an appointment with Dr. Zilberstein (a female) and when I arrived, they stated she was not even in the office that day. They informed me another doctor would see me. I waited 45 minutes to see a doctor who happened to be a male (which I am not completely comfortable with). Dr. Blumstein saw me, proceeded to tell me my pregnancy test was positive. After almost fainting at the news, the nurse informed him that she received no positives today; I was not pregnant. Wouldn’t a doctor check with the nurse first before dropping that type of news! In response, I received a simple and nonchalant, sorry.
After my visit, I had to schedule an appointment to receive my results. I didn’t quite understand why they couldn’t tell me over the phone.
Someone called me that week to explain abnormal results on my pap. I was scared of course, but the woman over the phone was nice and told me to still come in for my results.
I waited one hour to see Dr. Blumstein who told me the same exact thing the woman over the phone already told me. It may have been less that 2 minutes in his office and he was not friendly and did not seem to care about the questions I had regarding the procedure I needed.
Absolutely awful! I cancelled my appointment for the Colposcopy because of how uncomfortable I felt.
DO NOT GO HERE

This is one of the worst managed offices I have ever experienced. The women at the front desk are incredibly rude and unhelpful in every way imaginable. There are no doctors available to speak with on the phone, or they refuse to let you. Their main objective is to get you back in to the office regardless of having been there recently, or else they literally refuse to call in your prescriptions. My doctor has been out on medical leave for a few months now and I understand that personal things come up, but since his absence in itself is already an inconvenience, wouldn’t it be better business to be as helpful and accommodating as possible so that he actually has a practice and patients to come back to? Stay. Away.

Horrible billing service… Billed me incorrectly, then told me I was wrong, then decided they would refund my money, then it took two months and five phone calls to actually get the money back. I live next-​door to this place and I would rather travel 200 miles than go here ever again.

Dr. Mazlin forgot to call in an important prescription. I waited 2 weeks to receive it in the mail before I called to find out that he never actually called it in! To make it worse, I had to call every day for a week to remind his secretary to have him call it in. Every day I asked to have him call me back and he never did. Stay away from Dr. Mazlin! He is too busy to take your phone calls, too busy to return your messages, and too busy to call in prescriptions. But, he operates under the assumption that you have the time to call his office daily to remind him to do his job.
