Dr. Sanjiv V Kinkhabwala

I have been seeing Dr. Kinkhabwala for several years and have always had very good experiences with him and his staff. He is supportive and very solid in his ongoing communications with me. He has made some significant changes to my diabetic-related treatments that have gone quite well. I would recommend him to anyone needing support for their diabetes.

The most horrible, rushed, dismissive and arrogant doctor and experience I’ve EVER HAD!! I work in the medical industry and never have I ever encounter such terrible service. I understand the Bussiness side of the medical field. What about the HUMAN SIDE. Choose wisely and be an advocate for your health and rights!

Been a patient for a few years now, very satisfied. I'd been under the "care" of an alternative health doctor who unfortunately was a quack, Dr K was recommended and he got me on a proper course of treatment. I find him friendly and easygoing, but he's not *overly* friendly though.

I have been seeing Dr. Kinkhabwala for many years now and he is always on time, professional, listens carefully and he and his office is quick to respond if I have a pharmacy issue. Highly recommend.

I was his patient for about 3 years. In great pain, I asked him if Ozempic could be the cause. He was very nasty, snapped "no, it could not" although Ozempics' website warns in case of pain to see your physician, he said " there's nothing I can do for you". 30 mins later another doc. sent me to the ER where a CT scan and sonogram revealed a very large abdominal mass. He is irritated by questions, has a contemptuous attitude towards the patient, gives 1 word answers, has calculated 5 mins per patient. He is totally lacking in compassion and in my opinion is in the wrong profession.

In agony, I asked if Ozempic could be the cause. He was beyond nasty, snapped "no, there's nothing I can do for you". 30 minutes later another doc. sent me to the ER where a CT scan revealed a very large abdominal mass. He is one of those MDs who hates the patients, gives 1 word answers, has calculated 5 mins per patient. He is totally lacking in compassion and in my opinion is in the wrong profession.

Dr. K is a great listener, thorough and thoughtful physician. He is very has never rushed me through a visit. I've been to other endocrinologists who do not compare to his professionalism, compassion and care. I highly recommend him!

One of the worst doctors I’ve ever seen. Arrogant, dismissive, rude, and not nearly as smart as he thinks he is. I’d rather stay sick than be talked down to by this eye-rolling control freak.

I’d rather stay sick than be talked down to by this condescending narcissist again. He was so sure and so wrong about everything I don’t know if I can ever trust a doctor again. With so many good caring doctors out there, there’s no reason to ever see someone like this. He’s not nearly as smart as he thinks he is and seems to get a kick out of telling patients how wrong they are.

Very Smart. Takes time during appointments. Answers emails. If I want someone who cracks jokes, I'll go to Caroline's or watch Colbert.

Has been a difficult Dr. His arrogance and condescending tones and tardy response to renewing meds have been borderline irresponsible. His lack of empathy is old-world medicine at its worst.

I've been going to Dr. Kinkhabwala for a number of years (at least 7) & think he is the absolute best! I had a previous doctor who was horrible in manner & skills & Dr. K almost immediately solved a problem that nobody else managed to. He is ALWAYS kind & courteous. He is extremely punctual & expects the same of his patients. He is extremely thorough & knowledgeable & always willing to answer questions & explain if you don't understand. The staff has also always been courteous & pleasant. I actually can't imagine Dr. K acting in the way some of these negative comments expressed...impossible. I've been to endocronologists for 30 years & believe he is the best of any of them. I highly recommend if you need to see an endocronologist for either thyroid or diabetes issues.

Dr. Kinkhabwala was extremely rude to me when I arrived only 5 minutes later than my scheduled appointment. He was very dry and not easy to talk to, and I would definitely NOT recommend him.

First meeting went well-- took a lot of notes and took time to know my history. He prescribed meds that I had questions about. When I was able to reach him, he was condescending and short with me. When I needed to get a refill on his prescription,I called his office multiple times and left messages. No call backs, no follow up, nothing. Not recommending him at all, despite Cigna giving him a 4 star rating for "Cost Effincency." He may be efficient for them, but he has no soul.

By far the worst endocrinologist I have seen in my 12 years of thyroid disease. He is dismissive, disrespectful, and combative. Dr. Kinkhabwala and his nurse lied to me about doing a full thyroid panel, later insisting only TSH matters and refusing to do any other test (though I paid for my labs and the visit, and I confirmed with Dr. Kinkhabwala, the nurse who drew my blood, and the girls at the desk before leaving his office)! When trying to fill my Rx, he changed my medication from Nature-Throid to Armour--which I cannot take due to corn allergy, and he wrote a note in my chart stating NOT to prescribe Nature-Throid, just before he left for a week's vacation. My pharmacy could not fill due to his note, and they were in shock, as I've been taking Nature-Throid for years! The pharmacy told me I must find a new doctor immediately. My experience with Dr. Sanjiv Kinkhabwala was so awful--he WILL NOT LISTEN TO YOU as a patient, and will speak to you condescendingly. I highly recommend finding any other endocrinologist in NYC.

Great doctor, great care, very thorough, listens attentively, and makes great recommendations based on labs and overall patient concerns. Highly recommend.

I was very pleased with the professionalism of the doctor. His office staff was very nice and informative. The doctor personally called me back with my lab results and recommendations. Being in the healthcare field as a nurse practitioner I appreciated the care and service I received.

Amazingly Kind and Professional giving Patient Center Care; Intensively Intuitive to the Disease Progress and the Advanced/New Treatment Modalities- Exceptional!!

Outstanding, takes time for any questions to ensure your understanding of diagnosis, medications, and future plans. Great follow up with updates and responds to emails.

An excellent , extremely intelligent physician who takes the time to explain the details. Really a pleasure to be his patient.

My experience with Dr. K was fantastic. He is professional and intelligent. He asked me questions that brought out information I didn't even realize that I knew. He spoke to me as if I were an intelligent human and treated me with the highest level of respect. The office staff was friendly and efficient. I was in and out of my appointment (although had a very thorough conversation with the doctor, was physically examined, and had a blood draw) within 30 mins.

After 30 years of great care at NYU and it's doctors, having an appointment with Kinkhabwala was the WORST experience of our family's lives. My son needed a new endocrinologist and on a very rainy , traffic jammed NYC he was 14 minutes late after leaving his chef position early and losing pay the Doctor would NOT see him. We couldn't believe he schedules appointments at 15 minutes. So much for giving time to listen and get to know new patients. The office is seedy and the staff is depressed.

I was referred to Dr. Kinkhabwala by my gynecologist. I made an appointment, and was able to be seen within the week. The reception area is a bit dingey (its currently under construction). However, I've never waited more than 10min to be seen and am typically out of the building within 30min of my appt time. After each appt, I get a call within 24 hours with my lab results. His hours are great, and if you call a week in advance you can typically get an appointment before 9:30 am within a week.

Cold and clinical but is likely a good doctor. Had several problems with staff. Most calls except making an appointment go to an answering machine. Messages are not transmitted properly or are possibly ignored. Chased me for bill I could prove I had paid (by check). You pay $30 to receive your results via the web but the site was broken. The doctor was rude when this was pointed out. Took 3 days to get a prescription refiled because the doctor apparently left out vital information.
