What a great find! They listen to me, I listen to them and the diagnosis is made and a plan developed to develop an approach to treat all of my chronic pain. I wish I could have discovered this type of treatment sooner. This doctor and group gives me hope.

This may be an experience unique to me because there are so many glowing reviews, but I don’t know how else to get the attention of the practice so this is a last ditch attempt.
I’m an existing patient, and I had a few appointments with Dr. Nino that were great and super helpful. I felt like I finally had a plan for rheumatology care. I had initially gone in to see Dr. Kane, but he encouraged that I see Dr. Nino before trying to explore any of that therapies he offers. Which I appreciated.
My current dilemma is around office communication. The last time they were responsive were while going through a prior authorization process a few months ago. It was suggested that I come in for some samples which I did. I appreciated how much they were willing to support admit the administrative snags. But since I have needed a refill of a different medication, I have not been able to reach anyone. Neither has my pharmacy. They faxed stuff (I think), and I had been calling and emailing. But after leaving multiple voicemails and sending emails without a call back/reply, I still don’t have a refill. Even if they would want me to come in because it has been awhile since my last appointment, I can’t schedule an appointment because I’m not in touch with anyone! It’s truly bizarre, and I don’t know if my care has been terminated for some reason and I just don’t know it or what. But not having a refill and then subsequently facing this delay and gap in community location has affected my treatment. I even wanted to try sending a fax myself but l can’t find a fax number. So I am at a loss.
It’s also confusing because I was supposed to start a new biologic in the midst of this (what the prior auth was for), and we lost contact. I don’t know that this was intentional by any means, but I have zero information. It has felt like a very different experience from what I initially felt starting at the office and going to my first few appointments. There’s a ton of patients, and I wouldn’t expect them to always anticipate things for me as I have v patient responsibilities to keep my provider updated as well. However, I had been doing my due diligence in reaching out and did not get anywhere. It has been at least 2.5 months since I needed the refill.
My ask to the practice: If I am still considered under your care, please email or call me so we can connect. I get emails about the pain support groups, so I know I’m in the system somehow. If this is a personal case where I can no longer receive care from you all, I just want to now that. And receive my medical records. I hope you understand that I’m posting this in good faith. I’ve seen a response to a low review in the past, so I’m hoping someone will at least see this and consider assisting. Thank you.

The staff was friendly and helpful. Dr. Siefferman was thoughtful, listened, asked questions and proposed simple safe ways to come to further conclusions regarding my pain and discomfort. The office staff including Dr. Siefferman is responsive even after the initial in-person visit. Very pleased.

After two years of searching and feeling lost and let down, I finally found real help at Manhattan Pain Medicine. With Dr. Siefferman, Adam Rosenberg, Dr. Mikaberidze, and the whole team, I feel heard, supported and understood. Every symptom is being considered and I’m finally getting answers with multiple diagnoses.
What stood out was the mix of warmth and knowledge. They took a careful history, ordered targeted tests, and used working diagnoses that evolved with the results and have created appropriate treatment plans. MPM with Dr. Siefferman gave me hope for a pain-free future and a clear path forward. Adam checks in, explains, and never lets things slip. Dr. Mikaberidze connected dots others missed. The coordination is excellent; I never feel rushed, and I always feel seen.
If you’ve been searching without answers, go to Manhattan Pain Medicine. Their approach and care are truly one of a kind… best I’ve found in the city with no exceptions.

I can’t recommend this team enough! Dr. Nino, Dr. Siefferman, and Adam are the first medical providers to correctly diagnose and treat me after 10+ years of symptoms. I am so grateful to them and the entire staff at MPM!

Dr. Siefferman is a brilliant provider. While my pain is still a work in progress, Dr Siefferman always gives me options and explains his reasoning behind things. He listens to my feedback and concerns. I never feel rushed; and am grateful he works to meet me where I am. I highly recommend him.

I began seeing Dr Siefferman six months ago after visiting numerous other physicians who performed procedures on me for severe pelvic pain. The procedures did not work and my condition worstened with each surgery. Dr Siefferman gave me more explanations and education about my condition during my first visit than any of the other doctors did during my previous visits. He also stressed the importance of imaging for my condition and was surprised that none had been done by any of my past physicians. I have found Dr Siefferman extraordinary in every regard.He is warm, kind, patient and very reassuring. He has given me hope about my condition and my future. He is easy to talk to and as a female with such a personal issue, I find I can talk to him about everything related to my physical condition. The rest of the staff is wonderful; Stephanie and Ginelle are front desk dreams and Omer will help you with everything- with grace. Louisa is a darling who cares for you like you are family during procedures. This is a special team and I recommend them very highly!

My dentist recommended I try this office for help with my TMJ and I am already so so impressed. In just 2 visits, I’ve already been heard, taken seriously, and cared for more than I have in all the many, many years of seeking help from various specialists at a nearby hospital. Today's appt was unexpectedly a little complicated and took much longer than scheduled for but each person I encountered was kind, patient, gentle, empathetic, and super eager to help me. I haven’t had that kind of care, like, ever. Thank you so much, MPM!! I've been searching for a care team like you for 25 years!
