I have been coming here for a very long time because it is very accessible. I truly enjoyed the care of Doctor Desai for many years. She left and opened her own place in Irvington, NY. Out of routine, I stayed with this location and have been seeing Dr. Tummalapenta (reviewed in a different thread). I have had many experiences here, good as well as not so good. Only four nurses I noticed have stayed for a long time. In recent years there have been many others, which may be related to this place having "rotating doctors" - cardiology, dermatology. Overall the nurses are caring and easy to communicate with. The location offers many services like a larger clinic or hospital: Sonograms, EKG, metabolic panel (have not been offered for a while), stress test. One thing they are missing compared to larger facilities is a patient portal to gain access to your reports. There have been scheduling issues years ago at which I had an appointment and was rejected and did not bring my appointment card to prove it. At home, I confirmed the appointment. That was a one time off. My biggest concern is the age of the rooms and equipment. Recently, I had a cardiology appointment and the room looked like a storage space that had not been cleaned properly. It showed water leaks on the ceiling tiles. The treadmill looked aged and the EKG machine had a monitor from the 1980s. It was an old tube style monitor (green on black) that the technician tried to get working by hitting it with her fist. I suggested using one of the two unused LCD monitors, connected one and it worked but when the doctor came, she did not accept this "fix". I was rescheduled because of this ancient technology. The biggest mistake though was a prescription I was told to take before bedtime which caused insomnia. Another doctor at this time, confirmed that this was not correct. It should have been taken in the morning to prevent this severe side effect.

My is Julio Avila and it might be true that the staff might be nice but the doctor tummalapenta i don't recommend her to no one. She would send me for blood work but she wouldn't tell me the test results. She would send me to see other doctors unnecessarily and she wouldn't tell me what the doctors said about my health. And I would be spending money on cab and on co- payments. Until I did my own research on everything after I got my blood test result papers. I'm not stupid. Now I'll be my own doctor and I'll go by the blood test and I'll adjust accordingly.
Wonderful staff. Nice clean environment. My favorite doctor office (who loves going to the doctor?). Did I mention the staff is wonderful and very efficient?
Doctor T is the best she is thorough you can talk to her and she listens the whole team at Boulevard medical is amazing !!!
My appointment was at 10:30. They called me in the back room and sat me there for a little over an hour which I find ridiculous. Once she finally got into the room. She seemed really uninterested and was really rushing. I sat there over an hour and a half, and she probably spent five minutes talking with me and not interested in what my issues were. .
