Dr. Eileen C Comia, MD

I'm a fairly new patient of Dr. Comia and I must say she is an extremely intelligent doctor. I first found out about her... while watching her on a news segment on TV. I was curious and at the time I was looking for a PCP. She is very straight forward and doesn't sugar coat anything, which is a quality that I can appreciate. She does tend to run a little behind, but it's because she's very thorough and takes her time with her patients. Her staff appears to be very friendly, I've never had any issues with them and they are always smiling. Dr. Comia is the only physician in her office and she only has 2 assistants so i would assume that it can get very busy and hectic, but you would never know by the way they treat you, always pleasant and kind. I finally feel like I've found a doctor who I can rely on and listens to me. I have been recommending her to all of my friends and will continue to do so! more details

I am a graduate of Saint Joseph College, with a medical BS degree in nutrition. Dr Comia's ONLY advice to me after my p...hysical, was to try and convince me to BUY SUPPLEMENTS she sells in her office. I explained that I already take each of the supplements she was recommending, and that I take high-grade supplements only. She criticized my supplements without even asking the brand. I saw that she sells some of the SAME brands I use, such as Twin Labs (which I buy at Whole Foods). But she charges much more for the same thing.
Dr Comia is also very demeaning to her patients. She talks down to you. Honestly, I've met Drs who are rude, but none as much so as her. Here I already know about these supplements, and she is STILL disagreeing with me. Um.... no. And each time I came in for an appt I had to wait between 45 minutes and 1 hour to see her. To me, that is just too long! Especially considering that both times I was the only patient in the office.
Also, her staff is very rude. I called her office to double check the date of my upcoming appointment and the receptionist INSISTED I had a 7 am appt the following day. I told her I was on vacation and doubted I would have scheduled my appointment for that day. She RUDELY insisted that I was wrong. Then DEMANDED to know what I would do about my UPCOMING SURGERY! I told her she must have the wrong patient because I'm NOT having surgery. She realized she was speaking to the wrong person but NEVER apologized for arguing with me over my appointment for over 5 minutes.
This same "receptionist" was the one to check me in during my physical. She was very unprofessional while taking my vitals. Just "get on the scale" ....silence ..."give me your arm" ....silence. Also, I called 3 times to request a copy of my blood work, but STILL have NOT received it in over a month. I'm in shock over this office's unproffesionalism.
Surprisingly, Dr Comia was my doctor 12 years ago when she worked in another office in Avon and I was a high school student. I actually liked her back then! Since she opened her own practice she has become nothing more then an overpriced GNC. I liked her much more before! Sad. more details
