Sadly, I'm disappointed in myself for going back after being disappointed with my first experience. You know when you start seeing one doctor, it just seems easier to continue going to them even if it was a poor experience? That's how I feel about this situation. The main issue here - which I believe they should have a disclaimer for - is that she refuses to speak to any patient on the phone. Will shut you down if you ever ask to speak, even if it's just a normal doctor follow up. You either have to make an appointment to go into the office OR converse with her via an online patient portal. I understand you're busy, but too busy to call your patients? Seems rude, distant and unworthy of your time or hers. Typically, I'm fine with digital conversations - it usually makes things easier - but in this case, it is not easy or efficient. It is an old school, early 2000's web portal that is hard to navigate and is not always a timely solution when you just want a quick answer. After not getting a proper follow-up after two tests I had run, I feel like it should be important for the doctor to call and try to get in touch. It never happened. I think she has good bedside manners, but outside of the quick office visit/consultation, I'm left with hardly anything positive. I've also rescheduled appointments and they somehow don't show up on the schedule, after driving there during working hours and paying for parking - with no solution on their end. It's disappointing, but I advise you to find a doctor who will take the time to speak with you like a paying and valuable patient. Sometimes convenience isn't always the best route.  Read Less

I found my doctor!I changed insurance companies and my previous doctor was no longer "In network".  He had recommended yearly endoscopy.  I went to the Cigna website and made and appointment with Dr. Martyak.  She was 10-15 minutes late, and when she walked in, she apologized profusely for being late.  Shen then spent a good half hour asking questions and actively listening and taking notes.  She then told me that she rarely recommends yearly endoscopy and  was going to go over my records to see if she agreed with the previous doctor.It was a real pleasure to find a doctor who seems to agree with me, that unless one has something serious, with medicine, less is more.  Read Less

I never write these either, but after recent experiences, just had to. Dr. Martyak is very helpful, patient, goes our of her way to try and help. She has squeezed me in when she knew I was feeling particularly bad more than once which, as you can see from other reviews, is no small feat since she often books well in advance.Her services as pricey, and for a lot you have to pay oop which is unfortunate. Have to agree with some previous reviews that I have read that say her staff is incredibly rude. Have never dealt with people in a professional setting who were so offputting, especially at a doctor's office where you'd think they would go out of their way to try and be helpful or at the very least cordial. Honestly, 5 stars for the doctor, but 3 overall considering the staff that come with her that you'll unfortunately have to deal with eventually.  Read Less
