Sabrina Nilufar

THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE. THEY ARE CHEATS. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE WOMAN, Dr «Sabrina» or something. She made me wait for an hour and then spent FIVE MINUTES WITH ME. She did not examine me she did absolutely nothing and seemed completely uninterested in my problems and concerns. WORST BEDSIDE MANNER EVER. Then they had the nerve to send me a bill for $ 80 after collecting $ 300 from my insurance company. SHE IS THE WORST OB I HAVE EVER BEEN TO.

My first visit here left a LOT to be desired. I was searching for a new gyno since I’m new to the area and decided to make an appointment with Dr. Nilufar. I called to schedule a post-​work appointment and was told she does not see new patients as the last patient of the day so I decided to make an appointment for my lunch break. On the day of my appointment I arrived 10 minutes early and filled out the necessary paperwork and I waited … And waited … And waited. After 40 minutes I finally asked what the hold up was and wasn’t put into an exam room for another 20 minutes. Then I waited ANOTHER 20 minutes to see the doctor. She finally saw me after an hour and 20 minutes (and going WAY over my allotted lunch hour). She did my exam in under 5 minutes and was out the door. I asked her to please let me know my lab results when she got them in and she told me to email her 2 weeks after my appointment date. I never received a response to my email and I called to get my results and was told that they are extremely busy and someone would have to call me back. EXTREMELY unprofessional and disorganized — no new patient should have to wait 1 hour and 20 minutes to see a doctor.

Honestly, seeing Dr. Nilufar was one of the worst doctors appointments I’ve ever had. I went to see her after doing a lot of research and was confident I was establishing myself with a great doctor. And she may very well be a great doctor, but she did not show that at all with my appointment today, which was simply for a routine annual exam.
I waited over an hour for my appointment, which is not that big of a deal, but it wasn’t even mentioned, not even a simple, thank you for waiting so long, we’re really backed up today, etc. I could hear them joking and laughing outside of my room with the doctor, which again, no big deal, but if you’re an hour behind with patients maybe it’s a good idea to try and catch up when you get the opportunity instead of letting your patients here you chatting away while they are waiting, in a paper gown, for an hour.
All of this would have been fine however, if Dr. Nilufar had been remotely personable during our appointment. I won’t get into the specifics of the conversations, because quite frankly, there wasn’t much of a conversation. It was clear she wanted nothing to do with talking to me and answering my questions, and simply handed me a brochure, and walked out of the room. And given that she had made significant changes to my healthcare in her 3 minute visit, just handing me a brochure and treating me as if I was a nuisance instead of a patient with real questions and concerns was completely out of line.
I’ll be doing a lot more research to find a doctor in my area that will actually speak with me for ten minutes if it’s warranted. I’m extremely disappointed and hope this review helps others from ending up in the same situation I did today.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Nilufar for many years now. I think she is great at what she does, although I think she may be scheduled rather tightly so she doesn’t always have time to stop and chat. She is knowledgeable and answers my questions clearly. She is friendly and seems to have genuine concern about her patients. If Dr. Nilufar was not part of the Hoboken University Medical Center, she would get 5 stars — easily. Unfortunately, dealing with HUMC is like pulling teeth. You need to wait 10 minutes to make an appointment. The billing department is also a disaster. More than once I have received a bill for a few hundred dollars because their billing department forgot/didn’t know how to bill my insurance.

I saw Dr Nilufar at the Horizon Health Center in Jersey City. I was laid off twice in 09 and have no insurance. I had begun having extreme pain and very heavy bleeding with my period. I made an appt. as an emergency and was referred to Dr. Nilufar asap as I was told I had a very large polyp attached to my cervix.
She came into the examining room with a resident and briefly introduced herself. She didn’t even make eye contact and acted like she was bothered to be there. They proceeded to do more than exam me that day, they started to remove the polyp with no explanation to me at all. I was scared and alone and did not know what was going on. The nurse actually held my hand b/​c I was scared. The resident and Dr gave a play by play of what was going on inside me both in english and spanish (I do not speak spanish but the resident and nurse was), they never spoke to me once. When it was all over she told me to make a follow up appt 4 wks later and walked out of the room. All my questions after the polyp was removed was answered by the nurse.
Four weeks later (yesterday) I returned and after the usual long wait was put in an examining room. To my surprise a man walked in the door wearing a NJMC Dental Lab coat (I don’t know if he was a dentist I am assuming so) and HE GAVE ME MY RESULTS. A DENTIST!!! His name was Dr. Gomez. I had questions and he got up went to ask Dr Nilufar and returned. She was SO rude she didn’t even come to my appt!!!
She is cold, unfriendly and NOT a good Dr. She has NO bedside manners.
I was also told by the said Dr. Gomez that me being overweight was cause for my problems. Really? I have no health problems. Just because someone is not a size 2 does not mean they sit around all day eating bonbons! I exercise, I work and I eat healthy.
** On a side note, everyone else at this clinic is extremely nice and helpful. I would NOT see her again. Never.
