Dr. Chowdhury seemed to have come in the room with everything all decided. He was pleasant enough, but asked me no questions around what I needed or wanted, including where I might want the ongoing PT he was going to refer me to. He just set up a referral , when I have had a number of good outcomes with providers of PT who I had very good results with and offer services closer to my home. In general , nice guy who didn't want to know what would work for me.

I have a complicated medical history. Dr Chowdhury and his Medical Assistant have managed my multiple needs and coordinated with various Specialists for several years now, resulting in meeting crisis care needs and special requests in a very timely and meaningful manner saving me what could have been much worry and stress. I get the best care I've ever had from a PCP from Dr Chowdhury and Debbie. I have followed him from his prior office as he is that important to managing my care. So much appreciated!

Dr Chowdhury is the best. Actually cares about his patients, at least that's my experience with him. He also knows my health history and focuses on the appropriate issues. And tells me the things I need to hear even when I maybe don't want to hear it. Explains things well and makes sure I understand what he's saying.

Dr C has been a very good doctor for my father. We were disappointed with the referral to the Geriatric Doctor and the lack of communication from the Geriatric administration team, but Dr C has been a great primary care manager.

Dr. Chowdhury is not my PC but was able to fit me in to be seen on short notice. He was helpful & informative. I do think a female dr. might have had a better grasp of my issue, but he did an acceptable job considering.

It was difficult finding the entrance to the building, which made me late for my appointment, and had I not called for help earlier, the receptionist I talked to when I showed up almost told me to leave and make a new appointment. Thankfully, one of the other receptionists recognized my name and heard from someone else that I was late because I got lost, and that it was ok for me to come in for my appointment anyway.

The Dr and I communicated well during this Medicare required visit. He asked follow up questions about a health issue I had visited him about about 6 wks earlier. It was clear he had reviewed my questionnaire. He discussed my ongoing issues related to my ambulation and my bladder and asked me to see the specialists again.

I am thoroughly annoyed that the receptionist insisted upon having insurance information over the phone to make an appointment - period. I am further annoyed that the electronic check-in for that appointment then asked for the insurance information. And am even more annoyed that upon arrive the receptionist wanted the insurance information again. Stop wasting my time!I am also annoyed that the receptionist wanted to scan my ID; I do not trust you nor any other company to maintain the security of my Information. This practice should cease!I am also annoyed that to schedule a physical with a new doctor, since my regular doctor is retiring -unfortunately for me because he is awesome-, that I have been classified a new patient and am expected to visit with the new doctor before I can make an appointment for a physical - I will report this to my insurance company and I will consider finding another provider enitrely. Again - wasting my time and now my money too!

Dr. Chowdhury: Listened very carefully to my health concerns. He was very thorough with asking me questions to assess and advise to help me. He made very clear, and encouraged me about what next steps he recommended I take. Dr. Chowdhury was very quick to follow up and message me on MyChart with his assessment of my lab/x-ray test results. I would and could not ask for better care/service.Debbie (Med Assist): Awesome as well! Very professional, courteous, caring.

He was pushing for me to get the Covid vaccine both visits. This is not something I want to get. My choice, and after having Covid I think I believe I have natural immunity. I see too many people that got the shot get bad reactions and a lot of people I know still got Covid and some very seriously so I'm not convinced the shot is that effective and way my odds against it. I'm not against vaccines but this one I have my doubts. He recommended I get the pneumonia shot at my last visit because of my history which I did.

I was alarmed that this Dr. Incorrectly diagnosed my with class 2 obesity due to poor clinical skills. [Personal information removed] He told me several times in the apt. That I needed to lose weight and did not use his basic clinical skills to realize the BMI on EPIC was wrong and and failed to take the opportunity to correct this. If he can make this simple mistake, what does that say about his clinical reasoning skills for more complex and serious health issues?

Doctor did not know much about my particular health issue, even though he tried. Also all your doctors are keen on recommending colonoscopy and mammogram every time we see them, even though our current health issue is unrelated to it. We want our current health problem solved before heading off for routine colonoscopy or mammogram.
