Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Does more typing than listening
I've been seeing his for some time and I've come to realize he types more than he explains. He can become confrontational.

After reading these reviews, I’m shocked as to why I didn’t receive this treatment by Dr. Paidoussis. After suffering the worst nightmare of almost losing my father to Covid-19, I now had the displeasure of having him seen by Dr. Paidoussis who is filling in for our normal PCP. Instead of being sensitive and compassionate with us due to what we have been dealing with, he has been harsh and insensitive with his words making us relive the pain of what we endured again. His choice of words and demeanor have been tone-deaf to say the least. When I questioned the need for one of his medications because it was not prescribed to him when he was discharged the hospital, he bluntly and insensitively just said “he has Covid. He has shortness of breath. Give him the medication.” This kind of demeanor with fragile patients who just experienced something so traumatic is just unacceptable. I hope that no one else has to feel the way Dr. Paidoussis has made us feel.

I'm a bit hesitant to submit a review lest his popularity increase & I find it challenging to schedule an appointment. ;) He is... thorough, caring, professional with me, my husband, and two of my teaching colleagues who now see him after witnessing his care for me. I may have Hashi's Disease, IBS, & Rheumatoid Arthritis, but all is in check under his care, as well as his team of specialists. First time I met him, I simply asked he ensure I teach my young students for many years to come... So far, he's doing just that. ^_^ Each time he calls with results, & is genuinely concerned of my following-up, I think "Yeah. Definitely deserves the five stars.". Like a good hair stylist you entrust your hair, this is a doctor you want rooting for your overall good health.

This review reflects the doctor's staff and not him directly because I never got to see the doctor. I made an appointment and the office checked in with me regularly as a new patient with reminders about my appointment. However, the day before my appointment, they cancelled stating the they did not accempt my insurance, notwithstanding that they confirmed that they did at the time I made my appointment. Disappointed in the staff.

This doctor has been treating my mother for a few years and i was so impressed with his dedication, responsiveness, timeliness and thoroughness that I decided to go to him as well. He wastes no time, listens to the patient problems, and gets back to you with the test results/diagnoses as soon as possible. I am 46 year old and have been living in NYC and Queens for nearly 30 years. This doctor consistently provides by far the best primary care physician I've seen. I'm very grateful.

STOP! Look no further! If you are looking for a doctor who sits down with you and is meticulous with your history, ailments, and concerns, then Dr. Paidoussis is THE ONE! Dr. Paidoussis has excellent bed side manners, extremely thorough, kind and caring. He called me minutes after I had some diagnostic tests done with the results. He develops a plan to keep you healthy. He takes the time to retrieve past medical records to obtain a full history. Guess who my entire family sees-thats right!!!
