Nio Deborah A MD

Have a history of visiting Nio since she started with this practice in ¹⁹⁹⁹⁄₂₀₀₀. She is a terrible doctor along with her nurse, Lori, who flat out lies and regularly argues with sick patients. Due to the sheer incompetence of this staff, we are consulting a medical malpractice attorney. This «doctor» may spend all of 2 – 3 minutes on average with us, does not listen to patients, does not correctly remember /​state patient history even though it’s in the records she’s reading from, extremely dismissive of any questions by patient, absolutely will not discuss alternative medicines from the ones she wants to prescribe ($$ kickbacks?), has actually walked out in the middle of a patient conversation to not return (inexcusable!), long waits after scheduled appointment times (regularly 1hr +), sent a patient home from multiple visits when regularly complaining of stomach /​lower pelvic /​leg pain informing that it’s just cramps/​gas (no testing performed), when in reality, it was cancer!, sent a patient back home who experienced what is believed to be several TIA strokes with absolutely no tests /​instruction or follow up!, and the list actually goes on and on! Visit this lady at your own peril.
If all you need is someone to prescribe an antibiotic when you have a minor infection, she’s probably capable, but if you want someone who can actually listen, comprehend, and evaluate your complaints/​concerns while considering your medical history, and then takes action based on the findings, this is not the person to visit.

I second the positive review before me. I had previously been seeing Kathy Iudica who I also like, but for this year’s physical I met with Dr. Nio and liked her immediately. She is very kind and compassionate, and perhaps this is TMI but she made my pap pretty quick and painless (something I usually have a lot of anxiety about). I’m glad to have another female doctor option at this practice!

Absolutely love Dr. Nio — definitely the best PCP I’ve ever had, a great listener, very smart, and doesn’t seem to be «in a hurry» even though she’s quite punctual. Staff at the place are pretty okay, though I’ve heard other people say they’ve been frustrated by the office staff. No one complains about Dr. Nio — she’s AWESOME.
