She abruptly left the service Northwell Physician Partners leaving patients who have trusted and found her reliable in a limbo.

Review for Dr. Pillai
Dr. Vijay saved my life when he diagnosed me with a CSF leak, after suffering with leaking and 2 meningitis for 3 years. All the other doctors thought it was sinus infection, but he actually ran tests and recommended me another great surgeon that takes my insurance. I have a healthy life now, thank...

Dr. Mukhija did a fantastic job on my son’s surgery. The doctor was very thorough explaining the process. He constantly asked if we had questions and was patient in answering all of them. Fantastic bedside manner. Highly recommend!

I am extremely pleased with Dr. Cole and his staff. From entering to exiting it was a pleasant experience. I had 2 teeth extracted and it was pain free. Thank-you Dr. Cole and your staff.
