NYU Langone Ambulatory Care

The NYU clinic is covered by my not so great insurance & the nurse calling from my insurance company highly recommended then.
Dr. Jeffrey Potter in rheumatology was very knowledgable & had excellent bedside manner, but unfortunately for my symptoms, I had to be referred to the clinic run by Dr. Jill Buyon. For someone highly reviewed & a researcher, her bedside manner was aggressive & her interest in my health & symptoms were zero. It’s strange when Dr’s base their conclusions by asking «How do you feel?» & dismiss obvious bloodwork results. For her familiarity with these illnesses & the mysterious symptoms, it’s disappointing that she doesn’t have the sensitivity to consider & diagnose. I guess this is the mentality with Clinic appointments. It’s also frustrating to meet with the caring resident, then have to repeat all your symptoms to Dr. Buyon & 5 of her staff members piled into the tiny exam room. Each with aggressive questioning. They are the ones with the final decisions no matter what the resident’s opinion is.
I realize that I look 10 – 15 years younger than I am, but comments like, «Oh, you DO work.» and a general blasé attitude put me into tears with the stress of the visit and having to explain my physical symptoms 3 times during the visit. It’s disconcerning to overhear the Doctors’ visiting the previous patient in the next room, laughing & giving sound advice, then coming into my room with a total change in attitude. I even went as far as wearing a suit to my next few visits to be treated as an adult. Horrible.
Dr. Suying Song’s clinic was knowledgeable & had good bedside manner. Although sometimes you may not meet with her but with a resident.
Wait time is long, usually 1 hour plus. Facilities are very clean & the support staff is very nice & work fast despite the long delays. Micky holds the place down. 1 star for Dr. Potter & 1 star for Dr. Song.
