Dr. Tabari is one of the best podiatrists in the New York City area. I had a bunionectomy with him last fall. Thankfully, my recovery was truly spectacular. I had very little post operative pain, and incredibly, I did not even take aspirin following a complex bunion removal. Additionally, as Dr. Tabari predicted, I was back to work and walking within 7days of the surgery. Having had the same problem operated on my other foot about 8 years ago, I can testify this was a far faster, less painful recovery. Dr. Tabari personally called the following day to follow up on how I was feeling. He really provides great, no-nonsense patient care and is the best Podiatrist I have ever been blessed with. In my opinion, he has a stern foundation that makes him superb. If you are in the processes of scouting for a great podiatrist, you can not do any better than him. God Bless you Dr. Tabari. Also worth mentioning is his super professional staff - they are very responsive and go the extra mile to ensure great care!

I love Skintology! Two thumbs up! I live in Maryland and come at least once every six months to this amazing place to unite body and soul and pamper myself ? I do laser skin treatment, massage, hair cut, facial, manicure and pedicure during my visit- after my friend?s referral two years ago. I would love to try the eyelash extension. The artistic design creates a unique atmosphere of tranquility in the spa. Along with the professionalism of the staff all this works as narcotics. You just want to come again and again. The result of their work is truly amazing. My skin returned its translucency, freckles are almost gone. A magnificent place. I wish we had our own Skintology spa in Maryland.
I was very surprised to read such a negative review on Skintology and its great staff and therefore have some comments to share. Beauty is something that nature gives you or forgets to give you creating some imperfections and anxieties. Fortunately, people found their ways how to trick the nature. BUT. All these procedures are very invasive and risky. Even for top celebrities. Have you ever seen woman?s face destined to-be-beautiful immediately or a few days after the plastic surgery? It takes weeks and months to heal before Cinderella turns into Princess. Do they all threaten and sue their doctors for not seeing miracle the next day they wake up in horrible pain with swollen unrecognizable faces for many days?
They do cry and regret? And, obviously, they take an annual leave for a week or two? It is hard to understand why would people undergo laser treatment right before their wedding? You burn your skin to shed off in order to reveal a new rejuvenated baby skin underneath. There is no miracle here. The skin will be red, brown and burned for a while before you become beautiful and social again. This is a price for The Beauty. Of course, some people from the law firm may decide to take advantage to outsmart The Nature and caregivers simultaneously and get $500 back. It is a matter of taste, as always
Pros: High standards in everything
Cons: Not known

The doctors here are just so nice. They are very easy to talk to about treatment issues when my cat was sick, and are very nice on normal check up visits. My cat always seems to behave properly under their gentle approach. Once when she was bandaged they decorated her bandage with cute little hearts

First of all, let me preface this by saying I went to a bunch of different doctors for consultations before I got my lasik done and I was terrified, but this was the place that won me over after lots of research and great experiences.
Long story short, I went here for two consulations before the surgery, and their staff listened to my insane list of worries and questions with the patience of a saint. Due to my schedule, I could only make late appointments so in every case I was the last patient of the day in their office and not once did they try to rush me out. They honestly and thoroughly answered my questions, no matter how silly they seemed (and they got silly... like WHAT DO I DO IF THE NUMBING DROPS DON'T WORK!?!?). Fantastic.
Day of the surgery, the people at the Lasik Center were equally as friendly, smart and helpful. The surgery was a breeze and they even gave me a doll to squeeze during the procedure since I was nervous (I'm telling you I'm a WUSS). SO kind. SO patient.
During the surgery, every step was explained to me by the doctor. He was very polite and friendly. Also they give you a little canvas tote full of eye drops and goggles and free sunglasses. So guys if you do not own a pair of sun glasses...do no worry. You will have one after the surgery. The next day for my post-op, one of the doctors who was heading to do the surgery, actually stopped and said hello to me. Which showed that they sincerely cared about their patient.
Oh, and the morning after I woke up from the surgery I already had 20/20 vision. HOW
AWESOME!?!!?
Yeah, so I actually did make a long story short... but that was anything but short. Sorry! Hahaha.

I work in the area and just got a pair of glasses here. Very convenient to get done on the way to my train home. Very trendy - I got a much better looking pair than my normal style. I can't believe how many people have complimented me on my new glasses. I am totally satisfied and give this place 2 thumbs up.
Pros: near Grand Central

My name is Ahmed and I own produce distribution company out a new jersey. I decided to go with the lasik thing after being convinced by my eldest son and his wife to be. Constantly I was misplacing my cell phone and glasses having to do backtracking to find my stuff. I think they were tired of this. Now though I see the world as it should be without having to deal with optics. This place is top notch. I thought they would be pushy to get me in and out the first time we went because so many other people were there I think they also do face stuff but instead we all got expresso and I felt like the pushy one. If you consider the surgery get it done there. Now if I could only solve the cell phone problem.
Pros: Vision crisp and clear
Cons: Still can't find my cellphone!

I recently went to see Dr. Rozenberg for my regular checkup. My prescription hadn't changed that much but I was having problems reading the fine print in some medical texts, reference books and drug labels. He changed my lenses to a new digital progressive type and it made a world of difference when reading fine print. The difference was dramatic and definately worth the price difference.
Dr. Domenick Masiello
Pros: cutting edge technology

I went to Portofino to get an airbrush, as they call it, for my wedding. I was a little neurotic about the results. I could NOT be orange or fake looking for my wedding. I came in about a month before the big day just to try it out. I loved it and my pale skin looked gorgeous and tan (and without any real SUN!) I had Stella spray me both times and she was great. She was sweet, professional and very thorough. I am definitely thinking about extending this treat to more than just my wedding day. Thank you Stella and Portofino for helping me feel beautiful for one of the most important events of my life! :o)
Pros: custom spray tans, great technician
Cons: lasts a week

My wife has been a client at Portofino for years, and after burning like a lobster on my last vacation she convinced me to go a few times to prep my skin. I don't know anything about tanning, but the staff always suggests the best lotion and bed for my fair, easy-to-burn skin. Not only are they so knowledgeable about tanning, but they are genuinely friendly. Once again, my wife was right--Portofino gets my highest recommendation.
Pros: patient, informed staff, gradual tanning with no burning
Cons: none

I really am a big fan of this tanning salon. It is unassuming from the outside amongst all the bars and restaurants on 3rd Ave. I never noticed it until my roommate raved about it. I had to see what the hype was about. I am not tanning obsessed, but I look ridiculous without any color on my skin. I started off with their "360" bed with an Italian name. Loved it. I have since tried most of their new beds and am happy every time. I even spray tan when i am in need of some insta-color. I would def recommend getting one of their packages. They always have a sale and it ends up being way cheaper than paying each time you go.
Pros: new machines, spray tanning option
Cons: not open 24 hours, gets busy
