Reviews
Dr. Fahmy’s professionalism, bedside manners and caring attitude made my experience a great one. What I value the most from a doctor, particularly OB/GYN, is to feel comfortable, that he is genuinely interested in my medical history to better cater his tests and treatments and to show patience in the process and he did all of that. Dr. Fahmy is great and I highly recommend him.
It was an amazing experience from beginning to end. Dr. Roesner took her time and did a comprehensive examination. Dr. Roesner and her sonographer where gentle & thorough. I'm so happy I found them.
Very personable and easy to talk to, would highly recommend!
Great experience. Very informative. Great bedside manner. Would recommend.
Amazing bedside manner, great listener and caring.
I completely recommend Dr. Roesner, she was so supportive and made me feel comfortable. It was my first time at the OBGYN and I couldn’t have gotten a better experience.
Dr. Roesner is the best. My daughter just turned 18 and she went to see the doctor searching for a good solution to her strong bleedings and painful menstruations. The dr. recommended the Mirena Diu. She was fantastic, very careful and sweet with my daughter. Taking all the time and attention needed. She showed real care. We just love her and recommend her to anyone.
Dr. Roesner and her team are professional, kind and supportive. I was looking for a new GYN and I’m so grateful to have came across this practice.
My experience there was great. Everyone was on top of their responsible arears. Very friendly and well informative.
Great care and super gentle!
She is the best! The office is lovely as is the staff. Dr. Roesner is not only knowledgeable but also pleasant. The practice punctual and communicative. My regret is not having been a patient sooner.
Excellent care. Dr Roesner listened to all my concerns and was very clear and kind every step of the way
Incredible support every step of the way — through the wonderful moments and the stressful moments!
I truly can’t describe how safe I felt during this experience. This was the best OBGYN experience I have ever had. I felt like a human being and that she genuinely cared about me and my well being and my comfort.
Friendly, professional and fast
Dr. Roesner is the best. It was my first time and she sat with me in her office to take a thorough history and was so curious, gentle and gave all the space for questions and concerns. She was super gentle during the examination and even informed me that an ultrasound was included in my check up when I expressed concerns about heavy periods. The tech who performed that exam was also wonderful! Everyone who works there is so kind and thorough and I will be coming here for as long as I live in NYC!
I had a little bit of a wait, but once I saw Dr. Roesner, she was great. Very attentive and kind. She took her time speaking with me and was has great bedside manner. I would highly recommend her.
I highly recommend Dr. Roesner, excellent experience.
My concerns are always addressed at every appointment. After many years of going to different practices, I finally feel genuinely listened to and cared for. The maternal care is phenomenal.
This was the best doctors appointment I’ve ever been to. Dr. Roesner made me feel so comfortable and safe in her office. The procedure I had was painless and quick. She truly cares about her work and patients. 10/10.
I just have to say Dr.Fahmy is the BEST!!!!!!
Dr. Roesner is incredible. Shes always willing to listen to my concerns and support my choices for my health. I feel very comfortable in this office- everyone is very nice and attentive.
Thank you so much! Always a great experience.
Amazing experience all the way - it’s the best doctor ever. Attentive, patient, considerate, and very knowledgeable.
I would give 10 stars if possible! The staff were attentive and professional from the initial phone call regarding insurance and appointment confirmation to check in at the date of my appointment and follow up calls. I’ve been to many facilities within NYC over the years and this particular one Aster Ob/GYN made me feel heard and represented. There have been times I’ve felt my words and concerns haven’t been addressed or taken into consideration by other providers. Bedside manner A+, The one on a ne discussion with Dr. Farris was amazing! He’s a hands on provider this is something you don’t see often! Dr.Farris addressed my concerns and conveyed all details clearly and concise. This experience was reminiscent of my childhood doctor experiences where the doctor actually knew your name and you weren’t just a time slot and cash
Dr Fahmy is the best OBGYN in NY! His bed side manners is stellar. The office is gorgeous and the Staff amazing!
An amazing experience. I have finally someone that I feel really happy talking to and who understands or is willing to work with me. Thank you
Great experience!
Always a pleasant experience.
Dr. Roesner has an excellent bedside manner and was both efficient and knowledgeable. Her staff was also excellent and the office is clean and inviting. Highly recommend.
