Review for Dr. Gelman
Dr. Ansari spent less than 3 minutes on telehealth to diagnose and prescribe 4 new antipsychotic medications, without any symptoms.This doctor does NOT work for his patients; holds a poor understanding of mental health and care.Beware!

Review for Dr. Ansari
Dr. Dhawan makes himself available when needed to explain, educate, and treat with expertise! He is skilled, professional yet still friendly and down to earth. He also has a great sense of humor!

Review for Dr. Dhawan
He seemed like you as a patient didn’t matter. He had no care or sympathy for the pain I was in. There was no treatment and therefore after leaving the ER my symptoms worsened. 10/10 don’t recommend seeing him.

Review for Dr. Colazzo
Mother in ER. This doctor has been the most rude, unprofessional physician we have ever come across! Very poor bedside manner! Rude and unprofessional to both patient and family!

Dr. Gelman is a remarkable physician. He is bright, uses up-to-date procedures, successful, thorough, knowledgeable, and has an excellent rapport with his patients. My husband and I have had a joint replacement (knee and hip) from him with great success. We highly highly recommend him!
