Vitals / WebMD patient review for Dr. Alexea M. Gaffney-Adams

"HIV clinic is terrible. Staff unprofessional, never keep appointment times, and are completely non-caring. If you value your health go somewhere else."

Birdeye review for Stony Brook Internists PC

"The only thing that could really use improvement is the wait time to see her. I'm always there for at least an hour when I have an appointment. But, in my opinion, Dr. Gaffney is worth the wait!"
