The Best 18 MEDICAL SERVICES near Buffalo, NY (Part 2)

Lorrie Barry I was sent from another hospital to Buffalo General for abdominal pain. Although they were very busy, I felt they did a very good job getting me in and taken care of. The surgeons were very informative. The nursing staff was wonderful. My only complaint is as in most hospitals, they come in at 4 am to draw blood and do vitals. Please just let people sleep.

Anastasia Vasiliadis The whole staff took such good care of my mom at the cardiac dept also at the er and the other cardiac facility in between the er and the front entrance . Dr badaia and this team and the nurses went above and beyond . Thank u to the patient advocate for checking in on us about a concern we had . She was very professional.

Chrisha Riexinger Short wait. Took great care of my concerns in a quick fashion for my last 2 visits. Lovely to have a place to go "after doctor hours"

Meagan Bennett I came in for a thumb laceration. They took great care of me. The receptionist was polite and efficient. The medical staff was cheerful, friendly, and knowledgeable. They listened to my concerns and answered all of my questions. I received four careful stitches and glue and experienced very little discomfort in the process. Follow-up instructions were thorough.

Jennifer Rashko I love dr Jung. She is the best I had seen dr molloy also he is good too. They both listen and make sure I get the best care. .

Bobbijo Noftsier I love the staff and the Drs here. Dr Molloy has been nothing but good to me and had always listened to my health concerns. I want to thank each and everyone at St Vincents for all your hard work. Blessings

Shahinur rashid Dr. Momin Ullah is seriously the best doctor I’ve ever had! I can’t say enough good things about him. When I was in Buffalo and had that scary heart problem, he was there for me 100%. First off, he’s super smart but doesn’t talk down to you like some docs do. He explains everything in a way that makes sense, which is awesome when your freaking out about your health. And he’s got this way of making you feel comfortable, even when your nervous as heck. I remember one time I went in feeling really anxious, and Dr. Ullah just had this calming presence. He took his time, listened to all my worries, and didn’t rush me out the door like some other doctors I’ve seen.Even now, when I am out of state for travel, he is there for me. All I had to do is left him a message. The thing that really stands out is how much he seems to genuinely care. It’s not just about treating symptoms, you know? He wants to make sure your doing okay overall. And he remembers stuff about you, which is pretty cool. His office is pretty convienent too. I never had to wait forever to get an appointment, which is a huge plus when your not feeling great. I guess what I’m trying to say is, if your in Buffalo and need a doctor, Dr. Ullah is your guy. He’s the kind of doctor who makes you feel like your in good hands. I’m so gratefull I found him when I did. Seriously, can’t recomend him enough!

Taijul Islam Sweetest and kind hearted doctor is Dr. Waris. Very soft and well spoken. Takes his time with patients and is very caring. All doctors of this office are good hearted doctors. So proud off all of them working so hard for this Bangladeshi community!!

Seth R Mcglothlin Hello, I am just writing this small review on how my experience with them were. MAS transportation had them as my medical cab ride. Well, for that my appointment was at 8:30 AM, it was scheduled for 7:00 AM. The driver was very late, 8:20 AM, where I was going for an appointment was 54 minutes away from my house. I was late, pretty late. 9:39 AM is when I got to my appointment. Lucky, the place understood. Though, if they didn’t I could’ve gotten very messed up due to them. Never using this company again. Two stars for how nice the driver was at least.

ana mocha The one driver was very rude to me. I had informed him that I paid for my fare, and requested for him to get on the expressway but decided to take a longer route. Then, he demanded for me to pay, after I informed him several times I paid in advance. He even tried to stop me from getting to my destination, but besides that t Liberty cab service is great.

Cassandra Joan Butler - Astrologer I had to transport a loved one for ER care at 3 am. Everyone from The triage nurse to the Doc were kind compassionate and very competent . Medical intervention began within 30 minutes of arrival. Excellent hospital experience in every way . Thank you.

Taj Cochran They treated me for wrong thing! I went in with pain in my left side. CT showed my spleen was enlarged and bloodwork showed an elevated white blood cell count. They gave me a G.I. cocktail and a script for Pepcid. Your spleen isn’t even part of your digestive tract! They blatantly ignored my actual symptoms and treated me for “heart burn” which I told them I don’t have! And they expect me to PAY them for their lack of basic medical knowledge or treatment. I had to go somewhere else for REAL medical care. Oh, and thank god I went somewhere else where I was tested and treated for a very serious medical condition. I’d hate to see how sick I’d be if I only took the Pepcid and didn’t seek real help. Thankfully I knew better. They’re out here scamming regular people who might not know any better.

M.Lee Cthulhu 4 nerve blocks and they STILL cant numb someone properly, 1 hour later was drinking coffee w no problem...except for the tooth they touched. * side eye * 1 cavity filled per appt visit As well! GTFOH, What a dump!

Tehmina Shaukat I made an appointment for family plaining and confirmed it a day before. The following day when I got there the receptionist told me my appointment was canceled and no one informed me. She told me she can make a new appointment for tomorrow, when I said I cant come every day. She said I dont care it is not my problem. Extremely rude and unprofessional staff.

Hidaya Majeed I am beyond furious with the service at this doctor’s office. They never answer the phone, making it absolutely impossible to get through for appointments or inquiries. It’s as if they don’t care about their patients at all. I’ve wasted countless hours trying to get someone to pick up, only to be met with endless ringing or rude, dismissive staff when someone finally answers. The staff’s attitude is appalling. They are consistently rude, unprofessional, and treat patients like a burden. It’s clear that they have no interest in providing decent customer service or even basic human decency. Their indifference is infuriating and unacceptable. To add insult to injury, the wait times are a complete joke. Despite having an appointment, I’ve never waited less than an hour to be seen. The waiting room is overcrowded and uncomfortable, making the experience even worse. It’s obvious that this office is grossly mismanaged and has zero respect for their patients’ time. Overall, this place is a nightmare. The lack of communication, horrendous customer service, and absurdly long wait times make it one of the worst medical offices I’ve ever encountered. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs. There are plenty of other practices out there that actually care about their patients and know how to run an office properly.

Keith B I been going to Jericho for quite a few years and have mostly been happy with the service. They are friendly and professional. The only problem I ever had with them was at the beginning of COVID. I tested positive for it and then they didnt want to help me out with my back issues.

Suzanne Thomas I was seen for sick visit with Margaret Moran PA for Dr Corigliano. She was very kind, empathetic and patient. She is a great asset to his practice. Very efficient and short wait time in Lockport.

Samantha Bell If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I saw the nurse practitioner first. It was a great visit. This past visit I met the doctor. I had Dr. Cruz. I absolutely do NOT recommend you have her as your doctor. I went in regarding thyroid pain. With a family history of thyroid issues it would make sense for this to be a concern. Well she had no interest in discussing the issue. Instead she wanted to go over my mental health and ask if I wanted medications. I am not on any medication for anxiety, depression or anything else for mental health. My mental health has been great and she was just pushing the pills. I am on medication for asthma but she had NO idea that her practice prescribed the medication and has conducted the tests on that to keep tabs on my asthma. I also have the tendency to get extremely nervous at a doctors office, which I was really nervous since I thought she was going to be pressing on my already painful thyroid. My blood pressure was slightly elevated. Nothing alarming. She even said so at first and so did her nurses! Well then it was all about an EKG and the rosacea on my face. I was there for my thyroid. I told her I do not consent to the EKG at this time and she tells me this practice doesn’t seem like a good fit for me and my family. First off, when did my family come into play? Secondly, you didn’t even address the issue? I was there talking to her for over half an hour. Also how many brain cells does it take to figure out a blood pressure cuff? She couldn’t figure it out! He had my hand above my head causing it to fall asleep. She was not even releasing the air so it was just hurting me. I called to make a complaint and had to get a voicemail. I am posting this as a warning. If you are looking for a practice then don’t choose this practice. I don’t trust them when my life. I had to walk out of the office. I couldn’t stay there any longer. She told me I couldn’t then I asked if there was something I could then sign saying I will leave against medical advice. I wouldn’t trust her at all. I don’t know how all of the doctors are at this practice but if they are anything like her then they need their license stripped. She doesn’t deserve the job she has. I also reported her. She doesn’t deserve to treat patients the way she did today. I don’t care if you were having a bad day or what was going on in your personal life. LEAVE IT AT THE DOOR AND TREAT YOUR PATIENTS WITH THE RESPECT THEY DESERVE! I hope this saves someone from deciding to go to this practice!

Jessica R I don’t know when the hospitals in Buffalo became the worst of all! I am here with a person who clearly has the flu, he has 7 of the 8 symptoms on the warning chart due to a flu outbreak now Jan 2018. He was taken a flu swab at 2am it’s 2:51 am so I looked up “how long for the flu swab results?” It says 15 minutes so I tell the lady at triage and she says another 45 minutes?? So I tell her there are two people that’s has been over 12 hours and I know everyone’s case is different so I went and ask her based on your experience how much longer until he gets some flu medication or something for the vomiting -3 since he got here- and she says at least a couple of hours! For a person with flu on nationally known outbreak .... only one ambulance patience and 13 here at the ER Waiting room

Kim Gallo The review written by Jessica that is just below mine is for the ER at Buffalo General NOT the Neurology Clinic. I have spend a great deal of time in the hospital and getting care from the Neurology clinic at BGH. They are top notch in my opinion. I have an undiagnosed illness that stemmed from getting a flu shot in 2005 which caused terrible issues with my nerves effecting muscles, as a result I lost my ability to walk twice for about a year each time. Out the three hospitals I spent time in, the rehab team and the neurology clinic at BGH got me walking when no one else could. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Jeremy Bartee I had reason to visit the hospital after having some questions about my heart rate at the eye clinic where I was having cataract surgery. I spent two days there and even with a few things that were aggravating or things that may not been moving at a pace in which I felt they should, the staff was fantastic overall. From the start, the intake nurse was great all the way to Ella who was the nurse who took care of me for most of my stay and she is a wonderful, patient and pleasant person. I apologize that I dont remember everyone. There were a lot of different people taking care of me and performing different functions. Dr. Brumberger (cardiologist) came to see me during my stay. He is a great guy. Talks to you, looks at you when he speaks and explains things so you can understand them. I have been to see him in your offices subsequent to my stay and I am happy to say that I have found a new doctor if I need those services going forward. The nurses in his office in the hospital were all very polite and professional. I only remember Laura, but the three working on that unit were all equally cordial. Thank you

Lu Sal My water broke at 28 weeks and was admitted to sisters hospital. I was so scared and confused and didnt know what was going to happen. I spent a few hours at labor and delivery and everyone there were so nice and helpful. Many doctors came in from the nicu and explained to me what could happen which was so scary but they did their best to reassure me that everything can also be ok and their was also a chance i would not deliver soon. Hours passed and still i was not in labor thank god and they took me to mother and baby where i spent the next four weeks there. I met the most kind hearted and sweet and loving nurses and doctors and nurse aids there. Every nurse and nurse aid that walked in my room was very compassionate and kind and did their best to keep a smile on my face considering i was going thru a scary time in my pregnancy. I wish i remembered all their names to thank each one. Even all the doctors that would come every morning were very nice and listened to all my concerns. I had one doctor specifically that came in every day and did my ultrasound Dr Katherine O’Donnell, she was the sweetest soul i have ever met. She was very professional and loving and cared very much for her patients. After our talks and ultrasound i always felt comfortable and reassured and will always be greatful to her. After i gave birth at almost 32 weeks my baby Zayn spent almost 6 weeks in the nicu where he was in amazing hands. All his nurses and doctors where amazing and loving there. They made us feel very comfortable over there and took care of my baby. Thank you to all the doctors and nurses for everything they did for me and my son and for being so kind.

Lisa K Earlier this week I had my 3rd joint replacement at St Joes Hospital on Harlem Road. Each experience was very good considering that I was having surgery. Everyone, yes every single staff member was kind and considerate. At this point, you are lucky to get someone nice to buy coffee from anymore, so its a wonderful surprise to find that kind of treatment. They have been attentive, courteous and took all the time I needed to answer any question. Ive had surgery at too many of our local hospitals so I feel like I have enough experience to compare. I was concerned at first because I have heard the St Joes horror stories but to be fair, all the hospitals have their share of those. What was abundantly clear to me each time Ive been there was that St Joes is working hard to be an exceptional place for surgical care. I have chronic health issues and, unfortunately, medical treatment is a necessary evil for me. One thing at my age, (60), that I insist on for myself, is to be treated kindly. I try to be nice and respectful to all of them and I want the same. If you are going to hurt me at least be nice about it! Not only are they nice, there were some notable acts of kindness showed to me that were above and beyond. They were actions that were clearly not taught, but were the nature of a nurse that was doing the job she was meant to have. If you have ever been the recipient of one of these acts of kindness, you know how much they mean. Whether its the maintenance crew that is friendly, brightening your day, the anesthesiologist that uses humor to lighten the situation, putting you more at ease. Or the aide that not only covers you with a warm blanket when you are cold, but takes the time to tuck it in around you, these acts of kindness matter. They take an unpleasant, painful, and sometimes scary situation and make it so much better. Its isolating going in for surgery but St Joes makes me feel like Im not there alone. I hope the entire staff knows that I appreciated you all. If I thanked everyone this review would be 10 pages! I wish i knew all your names and could mention everyone. To the administrators, you have some exceptional staff, take care of them. I will just end with a special thank you to Tami, the nurse that gently reached out and took my hand during a painful procedure. It was unexpected and very comforting. In that moment I felt better and knew I was in good hands. Thank you all so much!

Suz Knobz On Mar 11, 2025 at 4:15 pm, ER support staff and medical personnel treated me swiftly, with compassion, and effective, knowledgeable care. As a senior, I wish they had capabilities for in patient care too! Thank you to ALL.

Edwina Davis I waited 2 months to see Dr. Sousa because I wanted a Black GYN- I could have just gone to a local clinic and seen anyone available. Very disappointing. She asked a few questions, the actually stated, I really dont even need to know, Im just being nosey. Excuse me? How incredibly unprofessional, not to mention that was a month ago and I havent heard anything. When I called back to get test results, the location I visited is not even an option on their main menu. Then I tried calling another site thinking someone inside could assist me with the right location, no one answered. Do better!

Laondrea Jordan Emma the sonographer was absolutely amazing. Emma was kind, caring and very informative. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better experience.

a shahla The service and staff at buffalo medical group at orchard park is exceptional efficient and very courteous. I specifically want to highlight BRIDGETTE, who was my ultrasound technician. From the minute I walked into the office, she was extremely pleasant, warm and welcoming. Her bedside manner was impeccable. She was extremely sensitive to the nature of my imaging test and provided me with details as she proceeded. She made the entire experience comfortable. When we learned I was pregnant, she also allowed my husband to be a part of the experience. We will always remember this. What a wonderful team and they are lucky to have her there. Thank you so much!

Deborah Russell-Hoeber I saw Dr. Paul J. Wirth today in Orchard Park for Basil Cell Carcinoma removal. The staff was very caring and Dr. Paul J. Wirth was very professional, very kind and easy on the eyes. I would highly recommend Buffalo Medical Group Dermatology.

tara petty Multiple bad experiences with this office. I was referred initially to follow up about some abnormal results. Dr. Gonka scheduled some imaging to be done. Her and multiple of her staff told me multiple times that I would have all of the results before I left the day of the imaging. This did not happen. Dr. Gonka told me she would call with the results if there were any issues. She never called. There was no follow up. About a year later, after visiting the ER due to kidney stones, my primary scheduled a visit with this office for follow up as I was already established there as a patient. This office communicated the wrong date of the appointment, so when I showed up for my appointment at the time I was told, they said I would not be seen that day, and that the appointment was for the next day. When I came back the next day and finally saw the doctor, the doctor had no idea why I was there. She thought I was there to follow up from the testing done a year earlier. She had to scramble to look at the notes and did not look at the most recent imaging but only a summary of the findings. She scheduled me for more imaging that day, which I had done after seeing her. She also said that I needed to schedule a follow up appointment with her six weeks out to discuss treatment of the remaining stones. The office called me later in the day with the results of the imaging done that day. That follow up appointment was today. I waited over 30 minutes to be seen. The provider I saw was not Dr. Gonka. All the provider did was give me the results of the imaging that I already had from six weeks prior. There was no conversation about treating the remaining stones. When asked about it, the provider said they were stable. I already knew that. It was a complete waste of time. Due to multiple chronic health conditions that I manage, I see multiple specialists on a regular basis. I am used to a range of the level of care across different specialties. None of my experiences have been like this. This office feels like a human factory and the incompetence demonstrated by multiple levels of their staffing leads to me questioning their competence to provide appropriate, adequate care. I will be working with my primary to establish care with a different urologist for any future care. Avoid if at all possible.

Allison My Dad is a current patient and he has had nothing but good things to say about the office from the warm and welcoming staff at check-in to the excellent physicians who provide the best care. He travels from out of the area just to come to this office and has continued to do so for years. He highly recommends this office.

Tyler Bluder Not sure why all the negative comments/1 stars, but our experience was exceptional. I’d give 10 stars if I could. My son was brought in on a referral from another hospital without a pediatric surgeon at 4am for an emergency appendectomy. We had a room right away in triage and then to the family room shortly after. He was squeezed into an early surgery and out by 9am. Everyone from the nurses, RNs, Doctors, and even the housekeepers were amazing. We were extremely skeptical from reading the reviews before we arrived, but our experience was amazing. Our room even had two pull-out beds and a bathroom with a shower that we could use (much needed after being up for over 28 hours at that point). Just bummed we missed Josh Allen visiting by about 12 hours. If you’re coming here for emergency surgery, rest assured your experience will be nothing short of amazing. Huge thank you to all the staff for going out of their way to support us!! Last note is the food. “Room service” for the patient is ACTUAL FOOD and not the typical hospital food. For the parents/guardians, there is a deli on the second floor that was great and across the street in Buffalo general (I think that’s what it’s called) is a Tim Hortons. It’s just a short two minute walk away and on the second floor also.

Brenda Molina I brought my daughter for a same day surgery, and I am really happy with the care we received. Everything went smoothly, and the staff were wonderful. A special thank you to Stephanie from Patient Relations. She was so kind and helped me with everything I needed. She really made me feel comfortable and supported. I am very grateful for her help. Thank you for making this experience better than I expected.

scott yunke Very. Caring staff..Dr are very busy with a lot of folks with issues. Facility is old and needs updating one shower , one crappy phone .. food was warm and good for most part .. programs has some busy time and some down time..... I give a higher star if not for facility it self . Glad it was close and accessible for me.

rhianna n Said person who was told they would help was called a drug addict and told they cant stay because they were drug seeking. Refused to help in any way. Then had the nerve to tell me I need to take time off of my job to take care of things. They just want money. They dont care just like cpep. I will be calling patient advocate about this

Liz Edwards Terrible phone service! Poor in person service here! Dr. Curtis works one day a week. What doctor works one day a week? Also, this cardiologist doesnt even examine you, a PA does. Why is this doctor making big money that doesnt even examine you? Will be looking elsewhere! Any suggestions on a good cardiologist with good service?

Eric Niedermeier No full time regular male doctors. All males are residency and constantly changing. Specifically requested a male doctor, and the residency doctor brought a female student in with him. Specifically requested certain blood work and he never entered the lab order. Trying to get ahold of a nurse to ask a question? Good luck. Theres an extension that NEVER answers the phone even during working hours. What are these staff doing? Want to connect through an app? NOPE. they direct you to FollowMyHealth, where they dont even show up as a healthcare organization you can connect with. Jumped through a bunch of hoops for nothing. The number in Google (961-9900) is not correct anymore either. This place is a trainwreck. Go elsewhere Will be looking for a new primary
