  Allergy Partners of Springfield

  Dr. Thyagarajan saw my six year old son.  He was thorough in his evaluation, listening carefully to my concerns and my son's symptoms.  He took a collaborative approach in recommending treatment for my son's allergies and hesitated to diagnose my son with asthma, given that it is difficult to get a six year to correctly participate in the asthma test.  He is taking a wait and see approach on the asthma, and is first addressing the allergies. 
  Dr. Thyagarajan has a great bedside manner both with the kids he sees and their parents -- he is not dismissive or condescending towards patients and their parents.

  Murphy & Staats

  I have the utmost respect for Dr. Murphy and Dr. Staats. They always will fit in a sick child visit, which is why wait times can be long. But this also means you do not have to take your child to Urgent Care or the ER. Both Drs. are kind, loving, and really care about children and their families. We select our health insurance carrier SOLEY based on them being in-network.

  Dr. Barry S. Dicicco

  My husband Paul is a patient of Dr Dicicco's  He has been a patient since Spring of 2012, after he was hospitalized for several days for breathing difficulty.
  We saw Dr Dicicco for an overdue yearly check up and medications.
  Dr Dicicco was amazing.  The time he took with my husband was just like the old days when a doctor really cared for one's welfare.  He ordered several tests and spent a lot of time with him updating his history.  He asked detailed and pertinent questions.  He was patient, kind, really listened.
  We will be going back in six weeks after we have additional testing
  I highly highly recommend Dr Dicicco to anyone who is experience any type of breathing problems.
  He is head and shoulders above other doctors who spend minimum time and attention during the visit.

  Nussbaum, Dr. Robert A.

  I have had lots of tests colonoscopy, Endoscope and MRI. I don't really want to get another one but would if after reviewing my records he thought it was needed. He immediately got upset that I did not want lots of test right off the bat. I don't present as most do when I am sick I don't get high fever and my blood work is also normal when I have a diverticulitis attack.  I have been to other doctor that want to operate I would rather deal with it when I have an attack, wow he was not going to make major bucks on me. That is the feeling I got when he talked to me. Telling me as I was leaving don't call me if you have an attack until I get your records because I won't treat you. Not very reassuring, I did not feel he had my best interest in mind. 

  
  

  I will give him this he saw me at 1030 my appointment was at 1015, not too bad. His office staff was very nice.

  Moghissi, Dr. Jasmine W

  It's really refreshing for a doctor to spend so much time with you and thoroughly explain results to you.  I have been going to Dr. Moghissi for the past few years.  She said I was extremely carb sensitive and asked me to be on a ketogenic diet.  She showed me in detail the results from HDL labs and went over everything in detail.  At first I thought she was a little crazy but I decided I would do it.  I have lost all of my extra weight, my cholesterol levels are low and I have haven't felt this good since I was in my 20s. I really can't say enough good things about her.  I am currently in my late 40s and feel that if I had not gone to someone like her with her approach I might have a very different future. She is highly recommended.

  Munis, Dr. Raiqa

  I'm surprised I stayed with her for so long. She seems to be a competent doctor, but she had very little regard for her patients.  Her manner can be very abrupt at times, and her accent is so thick that I usually have to ask her to repeat herself so I can understand.
  But my biggest complaint is her lack of punctuality. I don't think she has seen me at my appointment time EVER.  Usually she is 30 minutes or more late and in some cases over an hour or more late, and all you get is a "Sorry for the wait."  I've even booked her for the first appointment of the day thinking she'd never be late then, but I was wrong.  She showed up probably 45 min after the scheduled appointment time. 
   
  So I decided to change doctors and I asked her to send my records to my new doctor.  She demanded $50 to make copies of my records, which I paid.  Her staff claimed they mailed the records, but my new doctor claimed nothing arrived.  I inquired several times with Dr Munis' staff until they finally admitted several weeks later that they had never mailed the records and they had the files laying there in their office.  These were just the really old paper records.  They had more recent electronic files. Those they said they would e-mail to me.  They didn't.  Each time I called, they'd tell me they will e-mail my records immediately, but never did.  After multiple phone calls and several weeks later, I gave up. If I stayed with Dr Munis any longer, my blood pressure would rise to unbelievable levels and I'd need to make another office visit, only for her to be late again.

  Kaiser Permanente

  It’s an HMO. I have had lots of stuff done over the years. I have nothing but good things to say about them. If you are looking for all-in-one location; the doctor’s office, the lab for blood work, the x-rays, it’s the place to go. My doctor is not punctual because he doesn’t follow the Kaiser guidelines of 20 minutes per patient. If I need an hour, he will give me an hour. He gives me whatever it takes to resolve the situation. It doesn’t bother me when I am going in. For some people who are new to him, they are not used to it and they complain. There is no billing because I don’t get a bill. I pay copay when I go in and that’s it.

  Murphy & Staats MDs

  They have been going there for three years. They are great pediatricians. They have two doctors, one is Staats and the other one is Murphy. They facility is cozy and personal. Murphy specializes in Allergy and Asthma, as well. The office is small, but we like it.

  Premier Women's Health of South Jersey

  In addition to two annual checkups, I had prenatal care and delivered the 2nd child through Premier Women's Health of SJ.
  While their Woolwich office has limited office hours, their Mullica Hill office offers evening appointments available as late as 8:45pm which I found very convenient.
  I saw all the physicians and nurse practitioners during my 2nd pregnancy, and they are excellent.
  Dr. Hapner was the doctor on-call when I delivered my child, and his bedside manner was gentle, pleasant and comforting.
  Although I really like the doctors, I decided to change my Ob/Gyn doctors due to the telephone manner of one of the office staff.
  She is curt and her tone of voice is just not welcoming. Every time I made a call about appointments and referrals, it was unpleasant.
  My husband had to call the office for me once and he also felt rushed and disgraced.
  It is unfortunate that I was compelled to change my Ob/Gyn providers due to this one office lady; otherwise, the physicians and other office staff are great.

  Arlington Osteopathic General

  I have been seeing the doctor for about 15 years. It is a family practice. I see Dr. Roy Heaton and saw his dad before he retired. He knows my history very well. My husband and I travel a lot and if anything goes wrong with my back he is happy to call in a prescription for my specific back problem. I was out skiing and pulled my back badly. I called him on the phone and he was happy to meet me right away to get the issue taken care of even after office hours. He has a good staff and scheduling is easy.
