Carmen Bautista Dator's Online Review Report Card

I was grateful to find a doctor who recognized my depression and prescribed a helpful anti-depressant. Other reports are correct about long waits when the office did not appear to be busy. She was empathetic and attentive during our sessions. However, she does not respond to requests for prescription refills made from the local pharmacist. Nor does she respond to messages left on her answering machine during scheduled business hours. It has twice taken me over a week to get a prescription refill from her and I have run out of my medication each time as a result. I do not think this acceptable, especially for patients on mental health medications.

I brought a family member to be seen today. Dr Carmen told the patient that if they did not agree on stop smoking that she wouldn't accept him as a patient. Ok well considering that the patient is in a wheelchair with health issues they could have told us that on phone. They don't accept smokers! Thanks for wasting my time

I’ve been going here for about 1.5 years, and while I’ve had some difficulty getting ahold of the office at times via phone, my in-person visits have been love. Dr.Dator takes time to explain things and is very knowledgeable. The nurses on staff are also very kind and knowledgeable.

The worst Doctor I have ever seen. Very judgmental. Has this whole list of reasons why she won’t take you as a patient.

Dr. Dator has always treated me like a human being. On my first visit, instead of prescribing antidepressants or anti-anxiety medication when I discussed being fatigued and down, she asked me questions about my life and suggested blood work first to see if I had any vitamin deficiencies. It was a huge relief, and she has helped me help myself for several years since. She is not interested in treating people who are not helping themselves, i. e., she does not see people who smoke cigarettes because there's not much she can do if the patient is destroying their health with poor choices. I like her professional standards. She is a no BS kind of doctor. The reason for four stars instead of five is that her front desk staff, though kind, messes up paperwork and doesn't return phone calls sometimes. I'm not the Queen of England though and I realize mistakes can happen. They fix any mistakes when I bring them to their attention. Dr. Dator is open to alternative/holistic treatments and is supportive of positive changes on the patient end--she is always happy to fill out the necessary paperwork I need for my HSA account to pay for yoga, orthopedic massage, gym memberships, etc. for pain and stress management. No coddling in this office, but definitely treated with respect.

How does this woman still have a business practice here?I Make an appointment and make arrangements at my job only to be canceled the day before,So I rescheduled rearranged things at my job again only to go there and be profiled because I have tattoos and smoke.If you don’t except patients who smoke why don’t you say so on the phone why wait until I get there?so you could profile me that’s why.Must be nice to turn down money in such a little town.Definitely gonna let everyone know on all my social media accounts how unprofessional this woman is.

I recently moved to NY from MS, had an Appt with Nikki Nelson the CHP, she is very rude, I have been on medication for several years due to a lot of health issues. She refused to write me prescriptions for my medications that again I have been on for yrs. I am in severe pain because of this, she acted like a was a druggie even though none of me medicines are controlled substances. I am a diabetic for which I am not on any medications, supposed to be on Insulin and oral meds, I have CHF, High blood pressure, Sleep Apnea, Bi- polar depression, that's not all! She will not write me prescriptions for the medicine I need. She is uncaring and completely unprofessional. I am changing to a doctor that cares about their patients!

No good for nothing sums it up..

Worst doctor ever went there with a problem and got denied because I smoke cigarettes way to do your job and help someone. You should be denied your license

I have been very pleased with Dr. Carmen Dator. She is knowledgeable and personable. She has always treated me with respect and helped me effectively with any health issues I had. I have recommended her to my friends on many occasions. She gives excellent advice, and I have benefitted from her wisdom.

Bedside manner of a rabid badger. The experience was the same as being yelled at by your mom, except it wasn’t your mom and she doesn’t love you. I will likely have to go to another dr for therapy after dealing with her. There is a reason the waiting room is empty.

My daughter went to Dr. DATOR as a new patient in March 2018. Prior to her arrival I told reception the current issues with her and what our previous physician had done. Upon arrival, dr. Dator told her she couldn't help her, and even if she had a common cold dr. Dator wasnt interested in seeing her. Very unprofessional, and a clear reason why her waiting room is empty. I'd never recommend her to a single person, especially anyone dealing with type of anxiety. Nothing like putting a teenager down that's already struggling.

Saw this woman back in 2011. Worst doctor ever. I wouldn’t recommend.

Would give zero stars if possible. She’s the worst doctor ever. She tried treating me for something she clearly knows nothing about. When I told her the medications made me sick she told me I was lying and wouldn’t take me off them. I stopped taking the meds on my own and she screamed at me and told me that I don’t have any of the medical issues I’ve been diagnosed with by previous doctors, specialists, and that run in my family. Find another doctor if you can, she’s not worth the pain.

This woman is clearly in the wrong field. She is rude, indifferent, condescending and treats her patients as if they were beneath her. She is cold and has no empathy whatsoever. It is obvious why her practice is not booming, she must remember that we will reap what we sow.

If I had a choice to give 0 stars I would. I brought an elderly woman to see her. She was beyond rude. When she found out my friend smoked, she started talking to her like a child. She was explaining why she shouldn't smoke ( my friend is 73, I'm sure she knows). She would use her finger to write in the air about why she shouldn't smoke. She spoke down to her like I've never seen before. We both still have a resentment against her. My friend made an appt. with her son. He was great and listened to her needs and catered to them as well. Doctor Dator went into her records from her sons computer and changed what he had done. Is that even leagal? Never see her unless you're perfect, IE, perfect weight, non smoker, not on any meds. This woman has no right to come to this country and think she can treat the elderly this way then I say go back to where you came from. I could say so much more but you get the gist.Ann C

She tells it like it is, and is more than helpful for patients who want to improve their health. She is responsible and caring. But, you have to be willing to take responsibility for your own health behaviors. She will help with that too. She has been my doctor for years and has helped me to become healthier as I grow older.

I can not in good faith refer to her as a Doctor. Just like other people have stated Carmen is rude, miserable and an uncaring person. She is the perfect description of a Quack. She needs to retire!!!!
