Dr Kini and his staff are all so nice and in new york city it's very rare when so many people are all very friendly at once almost twilight zone-ish. I'm looking forward to my next appt with Dr Kini
I first met Dr. Kini last year in October. He was very helpful in answerign all of my questions. He spirit is so positive and he truly cares about his patients.
His office staff are truly GEMS!!!
Jennifer, whom I share the same birthday with is an extradordinary Nurse! She is compassionate and caring!
Fonda, who is in a class all by herself!! Her heart is of pure gold! She calls to check up on me all the time!
Amy knows her stuff! She was very helpful and pleasant!
Dr. kini addressed all of the risks of surgery professionally, but with compassion. I would recommend him and his staff to anyone in need of this procedure!!!
Not only does Dr. Kini have surgical competence, but his bedside manner is GREAT!!!

I was initally impressed by Dr. Kini's warm and open manner; the time he took to educate me about the procedure, and; the patience he exhibited when he addressed all of my issues and concerns. On the day of surgery and the ensuing post-operative period, I had growned to appreciate Dr. Kini for his rigorous approach to the overall treatment of my health care. To be sure, he is an excellent physician and surgeon. The staff -- particularly, Jennifer Nalle, the Nurse Practitioner and Fonda, the Medical Assistant -- are both exceptional individuals. I felt they were both available and responsive when I had questions or needed assistance. They helped to make my overall experience a positive one.
Dr. Kini is excellent! He is nice, helpful, knowledgable and understanding man. In the beginning I was a bit shy to speak to him and ask questions because I felt his staff had pretty much answered everything but he sat there and asked if I had any questions or concerns that I would like to ask him as the surgeon. That really stood out to me because it showed that he was concerned and wanted me to feel comfortable with him. He explained everything so that I understood and also made me feel that everything will be okay. There's something about him that gives that aura of trust. His staff is WONDERFUL, there were so many times when I called and felt like an annoyance and they never once treated me as if I was a bother. Jennifer, Amy and Marcel are all very helpful and understanding. I felt like I was talking to friends most of the time. I'm so glad I came across Mt. Sinai for this everyone there has made this process so much easier.
He had done many WLS.
He was very inpersonal, like I was a number not a person.
Office staff are the BEST!
He seemed to care but much to busy. I always felt rush and my questions seemed foolish to him. He also only wanted to here of peroblem refering to his surgery. He would just refer me to other Doctors.
He is very good surgon but his bedside mannor is very poor.
He emphasize aftercare in every vist.
He aftercare is kind of read and do if you have questions just call.
Strongly and detailed all my risks.
From one to 10, I would give him an 8.
I would have liked both, it was very emotional and felt like I was alone.
