Dr unnati tailor is a horrible dr.she just walk in and walk right out do not take the time to talk to the patient. I suggest that you go to a real doctor don't waste your time.

Avoid this practice at all cost. I have been going to plaza for literally my entire life. I have been a patient at plaza for 23 years (I am currently 25) and in the last 5 years it has become increasingly unsatisfactory and unpleasant going here. Every visit I leave with a bad taste in my mouth. Between doctors with horrible bedside manner, to lack of availability, and poor communication it's always a hassle and down right unpleasant experience.
I've had an a appointment that I had scheduled about a month in advanced canceled and was told I couldn't be seen for another month and a half unless I was willing to be seen by the other doctor, Dr. Talior, who I have had multiple issues with. I could not tell you the last time I was able to speak to someone on the phone on my initial phone call because no matter what time of day it is, I can not get a call through and have to wait for a call back which does not happen always. Every visit it seems they care less about their patients and even if you say something nothing gets done to reconcile the issue or improve the quality of care.

I had been going there for years. I had to change my insurance. They did not accept my insurance, fair enough. I said I would pay via cash or credit card. At first they said ok, then she said no and refused! I called my insurance and they called the office to give their blessings to me paying out of pocket and they STILL refused! The woman at the insurance company was completely speechless! She said she had never in 20 years experienced such a thing. After my insurance company called the office they were just out and out RUDE and NASTY. They told me good luck and go find another doctor. AVOID AVOID AVOID

Management is horrific and honestly concerning. I would never bring your children here, the work environment is extremely toxic. They were always so desperate for employees and most of them didn't come back the next day, it was that bad. Dr. Libert/ Dr. Trivedi are amazing doctors but I feel bad for them being stuck at such a horrific place. Elise, the manager is the worst of it but they all run their employees into the ground, never give them a day off, aren't flexible with schedules at all, and gossip behind everyones back. All she did was hide in the back and pick on all of her employees for no reason at all, grow up. Completely unprofessional and disgusting.

I called yesterday to book an appointment for my newborn, told them that the hospital pediatrician wanted her to be seen on Tuesday that latest. I come in for the appointment and the receptionist told me that I was booked for another day a couple of weeks out. Then the receptionist was like I don't have anything available until later tonight, or until tomorrow this was there mess up. I'm not trying to be dragging my newborn out every where. General feeling like this place doesn't really care or try to solve the problem. Very disappointed.
