Review for Dr. Elizabeth Chan, Columbia Doctors:

I unfortunately had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Elizabeth Chan. Her approach to diagnosis was solely based on blood test results, without taking the time to ask important questions or consider my symptoms. For example, she didn’t ask about my lifestyle or whether I was exhibiting any signs of illness.

Additionally, she completely overlooked a crucial detail I had provided on my patient form: I was taking a high dose of biotin, which I believe could have interfered with my test results. Despite this, she didn’t advise me to stop taking it prior to the blood test and seemed uninterested in my concerns.

During the exam, Dr. Chan did not weigh me or measure my height, which I found unusual. She also prescribed medication without fully considering my situation, and after I stopped taking the biotin and retested, my numbers dropped dramatically. Despite the improvement, Dr. Chan was unavailable due to vacation and did not follow up or engage in a more thorough discussion. Instead of addressing my concerns holistically, she denied my surgery and seemed intent on prescribing unnecessary medication.

Overall, I feel my time, the surgeon’s time, and the surgical center’s resources were wasted due to a lack of thoroughness and professional attention. I would not recommend Dr. Chan based on...

I have 2 doctors there where I go to they are both great. Dr muchel is excellent & dr Chernov is also very special but to get an appointment takes months. And when u get there you wait hours. The staff at the front desk in the new section where dr Chernov is are sooo careless and nasty. I had an appointment for 10:20 on 10/14 they even called me to confirm the Friday before. I arrived 10:10 ad told her I have an appointment at 10:20. She did not say a word. Then at 11:25 I asked her how long more do you think the wait will take. She tells me your appointment is 11:20. So they moved my appointment without telling me a word. And let’s say if she was right (doubt it) why when I said my appointment is 10:20 she didn’t tell me it’s 11:20. I could of left and come back. Meanwhile was sitting there an hour with a mask and no breathing and when my phone rang she said to close the phone. But she can flirt loud with another guy to disturb other people ? So I had to leave cause I got fed up and she smiling and carelessly didn’t care. What a service and It’s not the first time they change my appointment for dr Chernov. And with caring and no apologies that hurts Time to look...

I am beyond grateful to Dr.Ramos and also Dr. Yarmohmmadi!!! They are the absolute best cardiologist and I can honestly say that because of their hard work and dedication to my mother’s health that she is Alive today!! THEY SAVED MY MOTHER’S LIFE!!! And I’ll ALWAYS be forever thankful to them both!! My mom and myself have always had a great experience with the staff at both offices whether it’s in monroe or suffern!! Of course there will be wait times and a lot of mix ups but people can be having a crazy day it is a big practice they do have a lot of patients and stuff but it also depends on the times of your visits you know what I mean there’s a lot of different reasons some people might have had a negative comment for this practice but I’m so happy that we have had a great experience since day 1!! We have followed Dr.Ramos since Goshen to then Harriman and then to monroe and now we see the other Dr. in suffern for my mom’s pacemaker so I wish u all to have better things to say and may you all have an amazing experience from now on!! God bless and Get well soon give them a chance they are really good cardiologist up here in the Hudson...
