Dr. Mandal is down to earth and wonderful. She explained everything she was doing and was open to my questions. I didn’t feel rushed at all and didn’t wait more than a few minutes before she was able to see me. Glad to have finally found a GP to stick with. Speaking of, she’s an amazing blood taker :)

Highly efficient, yet attentive. When I needed to tell her something, she would stop, make eye contact and listen actively. She saw me on time and finished on schedule, but I never felt rushed. I was there for an annual, but I felt like she took it as seriously as she would if I were there for a non-routine visit. Dr. Soma recommended me buy Diflucan here for preventing my fungal infection, thanks! Also loved the small, intimate four-room suite, decorated in warm tones and South Asian accents. It was a welcome change from the typical medical office.

She was remarkably thorough. Before diving into diagnosis, she sat down and gathered all of my information and concerns. And instead of just telling me what she wanted to do for treatment, she asked me what I’ve tried before, what worked, what didn’t. I left the office feeling like I was in good hands. Additionally, the woman working her front desk was remarkably kind and helpful. And amid all of the NYC hustle bustle, it was nice to have such a warm welcome.

Dr. Mandal was considerate, thorough and efficient — all the things one would want in a doctor. Her office is technologically-savvy, clean and pleasant. When I booked my appointment through ZocDoc, I included notes on my condition. Dr. Mandal called me immediately to move my appointment up since she thought it was better that I not wait 2 days. I have already recommended her to friends!

Dr. Mandal is very nice, caring and understanding. She took the time to get my family medical history and treat me for what I was there for. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a good GP.

I agree with previous reviewers. Dr. Mandal was very attentive, and thorough. She is sympathetic and non-judgmental. Like other reviewers have stated, I didn’t feel at all rushed, yet there is no wait time. Time management seems very efficient. I was very happy with my first consultation, and she has definitely become my GP. The office is very pleasant to be in. I should add that the office staff is very nice and professional. I gave up on my previous doctor because the staff was rude and wouldn’t help me with a *single* form to be reimbursed by my insurance. Not so at Dr. Mandal’s practice.
