Beth Israel Medical Group

Very dirty. The first hospital dress they gave me had disgusting mucus on it and i told them to give me another one but the second one had chewed gum sticked inside of it. In the bathroom all the floor is covered with pee. The handles of the bed have some greasy white things. If you come here healthy you will leave here with some virus bacteria.

Awesome doctors and efficient service. I’m never waiting in the waiting room for long which is what I’ve come to expect when going to the doctor. Thumbs up!

This review is for the receptionists at the entrance who turned out to be rude and short with me especially on the phone. I only had the chance to visit the facility once and I don’t have anything bad to say about that. Internist Donna Edwards was very polite and thorough.

I recently moved from Boston where I had excellent medical care where everyone on the staff was there to help patients. Here the nurse had quite a negative attitude. The cardiologist seemed fine but it is impossible to reach her by telephone. There is no back up line and the people at the front desk are not any help at all. I’m going to search for a new doctor.

I have been a patient here for many years when it used to be Village Primary Care down the block on West 14^th Street. My doctor is Dr. Travis. Now, that they have a much larger medical office, nothing has changed (in a good way). I have visited the new Beth Israel Medical Group location twice since they moved/​upgraded and both times, the staff were all very friendly and courteous. No complaints and I will continue to go here.

This review is solely for Dr. Nancy LaVine and not the rest of the practice. I have never been treated as unprofessionally by any other doctor as I have by Dr. LaVine. At the time I saw her she was overseeing residents in training at Beth Israel Medical Group and due to the terrible medical insurance I had at the time, I was forced to see a resident in training. This was not ideal considering my health was in decline and I would like to have seen a more experienced doctor.
I was suffering terribly because of as yet undiagnosed deficiencies and I asked to see her because I needed to explain something to the resident and the doctor that I did not feel like repeating twice in individual sessions with either of them.
She stormed into the room angrily, as if how dare I was waste her precious time, how dare I request to see a supervisor instead of a resident in training even though my health was failing and I was falling apart emotionally due to it.
I was feeling horrible at the time and I burst into tears. When one is feeling vulnerable and at their worst healthwise, this is NOT the treatment one expects to receive from a medical doctor.
She acted dismissive of my symptoms when I requested a blood test. The blood test later showed that I had a severe vitamin deficiency which would have contributed to the symptoms I had. However prior to the blood test, Dr. LaVine brusquely pooh-​poohed those symptoms as if they were all in my head. NEVER will I go back to this unprofessional doctor. What a huge difference from the previous compassionate doctor I had had.

I’ve been a patient here for years. Dr. Nancy LaVine is my primary care physician but I’ve been seen by many of the other doctors and PAs there, and everyone’s been superb. The desk staff are terrific too, always very friendly and professional on the phone and in person. Highly highly recommended.
I want to particularly praise both the doctors and the staff for being incredibly friendly to trans*, queer, and polyamorous people. The staff use correct pronouns and forms of address for me, and are working on updating their computer system to include options other than «male» and «female» in patient records. Dr. LaVine is the primary doctor for both my partners too, and always says «Say hi to the family!». She’s made sure I know that I can access trans*-related care and services through her if I need to. I feel like she really SEES me for who I am, and she strikes the perfect balance of openly and readily talking about things that are relevant to my mental and physical health while never judging me or making me feel like a zoo exhibit or lab specimen. I wish everyone could have such a caring, capable, and professional doctor.

This is location is blood sucking place. I came here for minor checkup and the
I was setup with several test with out any explanation.
From there things started getting worse
— My blood sample was mixed up with someone else sharing same first name and I saw it as I saw the DOB to the different. The office was very callous about it.
— Two months later i started getting bills for hundreds of dollar even though I had provided the insurance information
— I tried calling and they make you go in circles
— Found out someone in their office did not inputted my insurance information
— still fighting with 4 different group to fix this fraud
— also till this date I have not received copy of lab work done. I doubt if work was ever done.
Bottom line is to avoid this blood and money sucking corporation !!!

Had an amazing experience at Beth Israel Medical Group. The front desk staff was extremely friendly and efficient. I was checked in promptly.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Nancy Lavine. She has a great bedside manner and really knows her stuff. She really took her time on my apointment and never made me feel rushed. She put all of my concerns at ease. I know I am in good hands.
Lastly, if you have issues having blood drawn, please, please ask for Judy. She is by far the most skilled phlebotomist I have ever encountered.
Overall a great facility. Super clean and modern and in my experience an excellent staff.
