Manhattan Cardiology

MaryAm one of the PA’s at the office is amazing. Calls back right away and seems very helpful and concerned. She also was the one to figure out what was wrong with me when so many doctors could not. She is a gem

Never go to this place — they are a big scam. No clue how they even have a license to run this place. Went for an annual physical which is completely covered by my insurance provider and ended up with a bill of $ 600. They conduct procedures without informing you whether it is a part of the annual physical or not. Extremely rude staff and highly unprofessional — NEVER EVER GO TO THIS PLACE.

I am honestly blown away by the service I have received and continue to receive from Dr. Segal and his staff. Suffering from chest pains is pretty scary. The second I walked in I was immediately at ease. The front desk staff is super sweet. The PA listened to me and really seemed genuinely concerned and is just so sweet and caring. It felt good to feel like I wasn’t just a number. She even called me the same day to let me know my results and to overall just check on me. A few days later, Dr. Segal himself called me just to see how I was feeling. I was in shock that he personally called and I have no words that will do justice to just how nice he is. I will definitely be a loyal patient. Thank you for taking a really scary time in my life and making me feel safe.

DON’T GO HERE FOR ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAMS! I went to the Manhattan Cardiology back in August 2014 for what I thought was a regular annual chek up and I end it up with a $ 600 bill for a procedure they didn’t even explain or inform wasn’t part of the routine.
I am still working with my insurance to clear this huge, unfair bill since, again, the Manhattan Cardiology team didn’t explain properly. I ended up here just because my company changed insurance care providers and my current doctor wasn’t included on their network.
My past experiences during physical exams have been very pleaseant. Doctors and nurses that explain every single move they do, making you feel not lost and comfortable during this sometimes akward tests. But on this center, they not only charge you a fortune for unnecessary procedures, they also don’t make you feel comfortable, they don’t explain anything that they’re doing, making you think they don’t know how to treat a patient the correct way.
As I read other reviews, this is not the first time they do this practice of not inform and explain procedures, so please don’t be another «victim» of this center and DON’T GO HERE!

Excellent patient care but you might wait awhile before appointment and between tests. I was trying to find the root of a recent issue and they did every test under the sun, gave me something to take home, had me come back the next day, see the doctor both days… it ended up being minor related to something else, but they took amazing care of me. They also haberdasher a completely automated check-​in with an iPad, including payment.

I found this practice via zocdoc because I needed an annual physical. The practice was not upfront with their financial policy, which requires that you leave a credit card number on file along with your health insurance. I don’t feel comfortable doing this for several reasons: it can be misused, lost, mismanaged and leave me exposed to identity theft, etc. Furthermore, I have never been to a practice, private or hospital affiliate, that follows this practice. All practices require that you sign an agreement to take responsibility for all charges not covered by insurance but, this just seems like a sketchy practice especially for a medical institution. This should have been made clear when booking the appointment so that I would not have had to take time off of work and waste my time commuting here.

Dr. Bipul Roy, Dr. Robert Segal and everyone else at Manhattan Cardio were so wonderful! They fit me in right away and listened to all of my concerns attentively. Having visited plenty of medical offices in New York where I was treated like a thing instead of a person, I really appreciated the care everyone in the office showed. They were also thorough without being excessive. My condition was somewhat of a rare mystery, but they called me every day to monitor my condition. When my symptoms worsened late on a Friday night, both Dr. Roy and Dr. Segal went out of their way to contact me and to make sure I sought emergency care. We now have a resolution and I am healing well at home. A+. 5 stars all the way.

I was referred to Dr. Segal by my Primary Care Physician for a stress test. I got an immediate appointment, which was very important to me. His office is run extremely well. I mean, this place is a well-​oiled machine. His staff is very friendly and competent, and the office is very clean. These are the first things I look for when going to a doctor’s office.
Imagine my surprise when this handsome doctor walked into the room. HUBBA HUBBA! Well, Dr. Segal is more than just a good lookin’ guy. On my first visit he thoroughly checked my medical history, my family’s medical history — and even checked my mom’s oxygen saturation level because she has a history of Pulmonary Embolisms although she was just there to accompany me!
On my second visit I took my stress test — that was hell. I barely passed, however whatever I’m suffering from is not due to my heart. So, Dr. Segal told me I should seek a pulmonologist.
I loved that Dr. Segal really LOOKS at you when you speak. I’ve been to many doctors who do paperwork or type while you’re talking to them. To hell with clinical detachment — I’m a person. I like to be treated as such. He is understanding, caring, and very professional. He even had me read up on my mom’s PE while I was in his office so I could learn more about it.
Book your appointment now — you’ll love this doctor, he’s fantastic. And, ladies, you’ll probably end up with a total crush on him, just like I have!

Dr. Segal (the cute doctor who is still single, please refer to my review of him) referred hubby here for a thalium stress test. To the uninitiated on the intricacies of heart tests, they inject a dye, get a resting image of the arteries, then they tire you out on a tread mill and get another image of the arteries to see if any of them are blocked. Scared now? Such a wuss! It’s good for you to know how much of those steak, pork and other dishes that you were writing about for Unilocal and that are wonderful to eat have adhered to the arteries!
Appointments at this place are about two to three weeks away but they are efficient in confirming the appointments and mailing out information to you on what you should do to prepare for the appointment. At any rate, what I really appreciated was that Dr. Ronald W. Galluccio, as he conferred with my hubby, joined me in on a conference call. He was very concise and I was satisfied with the manner and the content of his responses to my questions. Of course, I peppered him with questions but it was all great news with the bottom line that hubby is fine and will have many more years of annoying me. ~_–
