Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Highly recommend Dr Patnaik

The staff at Dr. Patnaik's office was very nice. I found Dr. Patnaik listened to issues and asked a lot of questions. My visit lasted about 40 minutes and I felt it was very productive. My only complaint is that the office address on their recording is an old address and she has since moved to a new location. They need to update that.

I have been seeing Dr. Patnaik for almost 3 years. She is kind, caring about her patient's needs. She LISTENS and provides an answer that one can understand and live with. I plan on being her patient as long as I can. I really like her.

I have never met the doctor but I always have a problem getting my Prolia shot every 6 months. I don't know where the problem is, but when I do the leg work with my insurance company, they say they never received the RX. This is going on since the beginning of January, of which they cancelled my appointment because the doctor was out of the country. It is now the end of February and I still have not had my shot. I found a new doctor!! Sue, Long Island 2/24/19

If you want a doctor who does not listen and completely misdiagnoses, by all means waste your time and money

Dr. Patnaik is one of the best physicians I have visited. She is patient, listens and approaches treatment in a logical order. She helped treat me for RA and it's progress has been stopped. I have recommended her to numerous friends.

She’s great. Has a bit of an accent but is very much aware, and makes sure to repeat herself if you don’t understand her. Gives you the right amount of information without overwhelming you. Would definitely recommend

Dr. Patnaik was awesome! I was very nervous to see someone for rheumotology because I am so young and I did not want to just be ignored. She made me feel very comfortable, she was extremely easy to speak with, and help to lay out a treatment plan with me. Highly recommend her! Could not ask for a better rheumotologist!

Dr. Patnaik is a polished professional caring doctor. She spent the time to listen to all of my symptoms and made sure she understood everything I had explained. I also appreciate how thorough she is as she included tests that my other doctors had not even considered. I could tell cleanliness was important as she made sure to sanitize her hands right before examining my knee. I would highly recommend this doctor. The office was also extremely efficient.
