The office is "dull" - I guess that's called effective management. But when it comes to the medical service, the doctor is fantastic. She is kind and she is attentive. Always in time and provides great service.
Dr. G is awesome!!! She is very gentle and is on top of every issue. I feel her attention even when I am far away from New York high in the mountains (yes, I once received a calls from her in Colorado). I developed more than a few healthy habits. And I certainly don't miss my annual physical.
If something is wrong with my health the first thing I do is calling to my favorite doctor internist Marina Gafanovich. I like her very much she is a good doctor and she will never prescribe you unnecessary “extra†pills like others, besides if there is a possibility she is trying to use homeopathic medicines.
I'm satisfied with price\quality ratio. The atmosphere is
comfortable and the staff is always ready to help, the attitude towards patients is great. I visited her office for many times having different problems and the quality of her services was always very high. Now I want to sign a contract for one year. Dr. Gafanovich you are the best!
My friends recommended me to visit Dr. Gafanovich and I'm glad they did so. The perspective of complicated and difficult procedure of
treatment scared me a bit. But her professionalism, comfortable and
calm atmosphere of her office, friendly staff convinced me. And now I visit Dr.Gafanovich with pleasure.
When my blood pressure drops I can do nothing. I lie like a log. I couldn’t hold it anymore. So I consulted the new york doctors my friend told me about. Of course in my age nothing actually can be treated fully. But they prescribed me those small pills. So I take one when I feel dizzy and evth comes back to norm. They know what they do, really.
My migraine turned me mad. The drug my old doc told me to take didnt help. So I visited that new doctor a friend of mine recommended me. New pills prescribed. They help. My old doc to the garbage bin with her drugs. Ill now visit only my new doc!
When I felt there was sth wrong with my lungs, Ive decided to visit a doctor. But I do not like the hospitals, they make me sick. So I searched on the Inet and found this lady doc. She made an examination, asked questions, then told me where to make a photo of my lungs in two minutes. Basing on all these, she assured me that nothing actually was wrong. The time passes and now I do know she was right. Great doc with a huge experience. Helped me a lot.
I think Dr. Gafanovich is a great internist. One reason there is an occasional wait is that if you have a problem, she will spend his time to talk you though it. She is not just processing people.
I had a new medical condition and she was very thoughtful in explaining it to me when I was really scared.
How many doctors give you their home phone and cell phone? That says it all.
I am seing Doctor Mariana Gafanovich during my pregnancy. Luckily I havent had any complications, so my review is limited to the fact that she is easy to talk to and makes me feel comfortable.
I guess she is very busy as all docters are, but she takes enough time with me and never rush it. That is maybe the most important to me.
I feel extremely uncomfortable around needles. I have once earlier fainted when I got a shot. I was therefore not very happy when I had to get vacinated against hepatitis before going on vacation abroad.
I would like to thank Doctor GafanovichТs office for making this experience a lot less stressful than when I got shots in the past. The visit was reassuring and professional already from when I got to the office. I got the shot without any pain and I did not faint.
I will never look forward to go to the doctor or get a shot, but it helps when the doctor is caring and knows what she is doing.

I can't describe how happy I am to have Dr. Gafanovich as our family doctor. She is always so careful and precise in her treatments. I never waited for more than 10 minutes to get into exam room, which is extraordinary in my experience. She is always available after hours to extend her help if needed.
I think very highly of Dr. Gafanovich who I use as my diabetes specialist. She takes the time to download data off my medical devices so she can track my progress over time. She has great advice about diet and also is very knowledgable about medications which not all doctors are. I also get appropriate reminders about when it is time to see Marina again. She is intelligent and caring. Another thing not all doctors are.
Great eye doctor. So very nice and gentle. Really takes her time with you and answers any questions you might have. Highly recommended.
