Dr. Nicole Christiano, MD

Even though my test results pointed to an autoimmune disease she refused to refer me saying I just had to loose weight. I was about 20lbs overweight yet she stated that my diagnosis was "morbidly obese". I had gotten and paid for my own tests during the time I didn't have insurance and she told me arrogantly that only physicians can order tests. Not true, I had test results with me. Once I heard her arguing and demeaning one of her nurses right outside the room. That look she gives you. AVOI

She didn't listen to me. I needed a specialist, and requested one; she insisted on routine treatment, delaying my seeing a specialist. Performed unnecessary tests. Staff could not operate malfunctioning equipment for test, so she used results of 3 month old test to diagnose. I requested the test results multiple times but always received the same old results of 3 month old test. After 7 months, I questioned her latest diagnosis. She told me if I didn't like it, go see someone else. Zero stars.

Dr. Christiano overlooked and refused to allow me testing to discover a very serious lumbar injury and TWO herniated disks. I told her where the injury was located in my back, and she never even got off her chair to investigate the area. As a result, she told me to exercise more, which would have put me in a wheelchair, for sure. I had to spend more time and money to go to the ER, just to get the tests I needed. She is the poorest trained and most arrogant doctor. AVOID HER!
