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.

Talks to You; Not His Computer
I followed Dr. Emy to Weill Cornell -- and am super glad that I did. The title says it all. Comprehensive. Knowledgeable. Attentive. Responsive. What else do you want in your GP?

Incredible physician
Telehealth
Dr. Emy has been treating my husband for more than 20 years. He is an exceptional physician and a human being. He is knowledgeable, thorough, calm, especially in the time of crisis. He is very kind and patient. He deeply cares for his patients and their families. He is honest, empathetic and humble. I am short for words to express our gratitude for his care and support.

26 years and two coasts later
I met Dr. Emy more than 26 years ago when I was experiencing sudden loss of movement on my left side. He evaluated me and immediately discerned that I’d suffered some kind of neurological episode. Since that day he’s been my GP. He’s of course smart and deeply knowledgeable, but he’s also warm, kind, thoughtful and trustworthy. He’s changed locations since we first met and I now live in California, but Dr. Emy is still my GP today and will remain so. Am grateful to still be in his care.

One in a million
Dr. Emiy has been my internist for over 30 years. I have followed him as he’s moved further and further uptown twice because I couldn’t imagine seeing anyone else. His professional skills are outstanding, but perhaps more importantly his bedside manner is angelic. He is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and kind. He has helped me navigate several complicated health challenges with patience, good humor, and constant availability. I have referred at least five of my own patients to him and each one has come back to me thanking me profusely for the referral as they have all had similar experiences. I will always be grateful to him for the care he he has given me through the years.

Dr. Emy is knowledgeable, attentive and kind.
Dr. Emy has been my MD for over a decade and has been diligent in treating my conditions with calm, attentive and effective treatment. When I arrived at his office with a 102 fever, he saw me immediately, and patiently reviewed my symptoms. Hetested me for the flu, etc and reported the results to me within an hour. Thanks to his swift action I am now recovering from influenza with antibiotics . Dr. Emy and his staff were extremely thoughtful and helpful throughout my ordeal.

John Emy is a highly sought after physician.
I’ve been with Dr. Emy for decades. He is one of the finest physicians you could ever meet. He has diagnosed and correctly treated where specialists have been wrong. If he moves his practice we will follow him again.

Very caring and attentive
I have been seeing Dr. Emy for about 8 years. He is one of the kindest, most caring doctors I have ever seen. He makes you feel at ease and listens to your concerns. He is very responsive to questions and issues whether it is in person, via telehealth or via the portal. He is also great about coordinating with the rest of your care team so you can feel comfortable that he understands your complete health picture. I highly recommend him as a primary care physician
