Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Worst “MD” ever!
This so called doctor is the worst I have ever seen. Reading all the other reviews it is exactly rhetorical issues I dealt with. He is rude, self entitled, does not care about his patients, does not pay attention or listen, doesn’t even look at you he is too busy on his laptop. He does not examine you and insults you when you try to explain what you have going on. Literally yelled at me because I brought informational packets about my condition because 99% of doctors do not know about it or have outdated wrong information on my condition. He yelled that I don’t get to tell him what he needs to learn and he doesn’t want to learn about my so called condition. Even the nurse who was in the room thankfully to witness all of this mistreatment he subjected me too. It is many other words but this review forum does not allow certain words.. which is poor on this review forum. Do not go to this so called professional, he is far from that and should not be in this filed at all.

Entitled, self absorbed individual.
Pathetic excuse for a doctor. He’s self entitled, treats nurses and other nursing staff like they are below him. Expects things in an unreasonable time frame. Rude and overall someone I would never subject myself to dealing with again.

Best doctor I have been to in my 57 years of life
I have been going to Dr. Chasin for about 12 years now honestly couldn’t imagine seeing any other doctor. He’s professional and the one thing I can tell you is this man really cares about his patience. He sees my children he saw my father till he passed I wouldn’t want it go to any other doctor. He’s thorough and caring what more could you ask for.

If I could give a zero star I would.
Waited in the room for 15 mins, just to have him come in talk to me for less then two mins. Then sent his nurse in to chase me off that he doesn't do physicals. What doctor doesn't do physicals and then doesn't even have the professionalism to tell you in the face. Don't bother going to him. RUDE.

The reviews are true. Dr. Chasin is rude and pompous. My main concern when establishing primary care was my family’s history of heart disease. This doctor was more focused on my mild anxiety and wanted to prescribe me Prozac. I wasn’t interested in a daily drug for mild anxiety. I was more interested in discussing my blood work and high cholesterol. However, this doctor didn’t provide me any guidance on this. When I went back for a follow up he was very upset I never picked the Prozac up from the pharmacy and was still uninterested in discussing my cholesterol. My suggestion would be to seek another doctor.

Dr. Chasin doesn’t listen to his patients. The first time I met him he asked for a list of medications I was on, and proceeded to tell me I couldn’t be on hydrocortisone pills because there is no such thing as hydrocortisone pills. He was, of course, incorrect. The last straw was the time I saw him during walk-in clinic hours because of a severe earache. He didn’t listen to me, or look at my ears, or even look up *at all* from the papers he was carrying, and sent me home because I was “fine.” Twelve hours later I was at an urgent care office with a doctor who looked in my ears and literally said “Wow...” because he had rarely seen such severe ear infections. That’s right. Infections, plural. Do not put your health in the hands of such a careless and callous doctor as Dr. Chasin.

Rhinebeck RN – Jul 10, 2018

Dr. Chasin kept dragging my elderly mother in for unnecessary visits, and when I asked why we had to go in person to hear something that could easily have been told her over the phone, he asked how we expected him to make money because he didn't get paid for phone calls. He was rude, unsympathetic, and inattentive to her medical issues. At least he was honest to tell us that for him money comes before his patients, but too bad he missed his true calling as a corporate accountant.

We just switched from our former pediatrician's office to Dr. Chasin with my two boys. We are very happy with the move to Dr. Chasin and Health Quest Primary. He was excellent with both of them (aged 10 and 15). He is friendly and addressed all our questions in a professional and helpful manner. Highly recommend.

I am a female. I had issues and i heard he was a good doctor. Boy was I wrong. He talks more to his students then patients. And he lied to me about something personal. Integrity is everything. Too rushed. I don't like him at all. And he's a smoker.

Dr Chasin was good at first but through some issues I had he wasn't the greatest. The last two appointments in particular made me change doctors. He seemed very rushed and had a lot of medical students working for him which made me feel uncomfortable. I felt like he had no time to talk to me and wouldn't listen to my concerns. Then I caught him in a lie which is very unprofessional. Do not go to see he him. He has no integrity.
