In the medical corridor of Sheepshead Bay, located at 2960 Ocean Ave (3rd Floor), the practice of Dr. Lucia Avany, MD stands as a cornerstone of primary care and community wellness. As a board-certified family medicine specialist and a licensed practitioner of aesthetic medicine, Dr. Avany offers a rare blend of comprehensive internal healthcare and specialized clinical beauty treatments.




She is the definitive "life-cycle" physician for the neighborhood—a trusted partner for patients aged 16 to 100, where medical expertise is delivered with the warmth of a local practitioner.




The "Total Health" Philosophy


The Primary Care Anchor: Dr. Avany is a high-integrity diagnostician specializing in the long-term management of hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes. Her practice is noted for its "meticulous" approach to treatment, ensuring that chronic conditions are not just managed, but actively improved through a partnership between doctor and patient.

This allows her patients to address both their internal health and their external confidence in a single, professional setting, utilizing her clinical precision for treatments that go beyond standard spa-level care.




A Cultural Hub: Reflecting the rich, diverse fabric of South Brooklyn, Dr. Avany is bilingual in English and Russian. Her ability to communicate complex medical data in a patient's native tongue has made her a vital resource for the local Slavic and international communities, ensuring no detail of a diagnosis is lost in translation.




The Efficiency Standard: In a city where medical visits can feel like an all-day ordeal, her office is celebrated for its rapid turnaround and prompt scheduling. Patients frequently highlight the "no-rush" atmosphere of the consultations, which is balanced by an administrative team that respects the patient’s time.

Самый лучший доктор в мире. Девочки на фронтдеск очень профессиональные. всегда приветливые дружелюбные. Настоятельно рекомендую всем


Exceptional doctor! I was referred to Dr. Avany by my friend and glad that I took his advice. Dr. Avany explained everything to me detail and addressed all of my concerns to my complete satisfaction! Glad I found a great doctor for myself who genuinely cares for her patients!


I like Dr. Avany, and it helps that her English has gotten better over time. However, she doesn't call when you are awaiting test results--only if it's bad news. The receptionist is frequently changing, some are nicer than others, their English varies. The one that does the insurance and sometimes answers the phone (Lana) is rude and unfriendly. The phlebotomist is nice, speaks little English. It is somewhat uncomfortable that everyone speaks Russian all the time. And they always have Russian TV programs on. Overall, I think the doctor knows what she's doing so I keep going back.


Dr Lucia Avany is a great doctor and thorough. She will answer all your questions and is concerned about your overall health not just her area of expertise. The nurse and front desk representatives are friendly but are human and can be busy at times holding down the phones and servicing patients at the office.

Я много лет ходила к этому доктору, но в последнее время отношение к пациентам очень сильно испортилось. Женщина на ресепшене (слева) очень грубо, неуважительно и недостойно разговаривает. С тобой общаются так, будто ты кусок говна! После общения с ней всегда очень мерзкое ощущение! Также она 3 раза за год назначила мне визит в то время, когда офис не работал. Представьте, что вы откладываете свои дела, приезжаете в офис своего врача и просто целуете закрытые двери. Это возмутительно! И это не был форс-мажор с их стороны. 2 раза это были праздники, которые заранее всем известны и 1 раз это был недельный отпуск офиса, который тоже скорее всего им был известен заранее. Так зачем ты назначаешь мне визиты на эти дни? Ответ один - ей просто все равно на вас, и в процессе назначения визита, она просто хочет побыстрее от вас отвязаться. И самое ужасное, что они не звонят и не предупреждают, что офис не работает в день моего визита. Это очень неуважительное отношение! Ну и ее манера разговаривать с людьми - это ужас! Столько злости, издевательства, унижения и т.д. она позволяет себе каждый раз! Доктору срочно нужно менять персонал, иначе всех пациентов потеряет. В других отзывах я увидела похожее описание.

I've been seeing this doctor for years, but lately, the attitude towards patients has really deteriorated a lot. The woman at the front desk (left) is talking very rudely, disrespectfully, and in an undignified way. They talk to you like you're a piece of shit! It's always a really nasty feeling after talking to her! Also, she made 3 appointments with me during the office when the office was not open 3 times a year. Imagine putting things aside, arriving at your doctor's office, and just kissing closed doors. This is outrageous! And it wasn't an accidental force majeure on their part. 2 times it was a holiday that everyone knows in advance and 1 time it was a week-long office vacation, which they also most likely knew in advance. So why are you making appointments with me these days? The answer is one - she just doesn't care about you, and in the process of making a visit, she just wants to get away from you quickly. And the worst part is, they don't call and warn that the office isn't open on the day I visit. That's a very disrespectful attitude!
Well, her way of talking to people is awful! So much anger, bullying, humiliation, etc. she indulges in every time! The doctor needs to change staff urgently, or he'll lose all the patients. I saw a similar description in other reviews.

The experience at the front desk was extremely disappointing. The front desk agent was extremely rude and unprofessional. She kept interrupting me, being judgmental and even hung up on me before I could finish. I am always polite and respectful and understand how difficult it is to work with people but be kinder! Very unpleasant experience.

Категорически не рекомендую этот офис. Врачи ведут себя так, будто пациенты пришли «на халяву», отношение свысока и грубое. Самое возмутительное — выписывают даже сильнодействующие, в том числе наркотические препараты, не объясняя побочные эффекты и последствия для здоровья. Складывается ощущение, что главное здесь — использовать страховку и назначить самые дорогие лекарства и принадлежности, а не помочь человеку.

К тому же часто проводят странные тесты, ставят сомнительные диагнозы и не направляют к нужным специалистам. На ресепшене хамство стало нормой: блондинка может нагрубить без повода, а второй оператор тоже испортился.

Такое отношение опасно и неприемлемо. Пациенты заслуживают уважения и честного лечения, а не рисков для здоровья.

К сожалению, мой опыт взаимодействия с этим офисом оставил желать лучшего. Я столкнулся с ситуацией, когда от меня требовали оплату за документы, и при этом отправляли несколько копий одних и тех же бумаг. Более того, за каждую повторную отправку также требовалась оплата, и такое поведение говорит о том, что мошенничество налицо. Рекомендую быть внимательными и осторожными при взаимодействии с данным офисом.

Добавлю! Вместо моего терапевта на приёме оказался другой врач, который не представился и не объяснил ничего о своём статусе. Его слова, вроде «не бойся умереть», звучали очень странно и вызывающе. Более того, меня пытались убедить в необходимости лечения без каких-либо объяснений, что также вызывает беспокойство. Рекомендую быть очень внимательными и осторожными при взаимодействии с данным офисом.

Кроме того, хочу отметить, что в ходе взаимодействия со специалистами мне задавали вопросы о национальности, что я считаю недопустимым и проявлением расизма. Важно, чтобы все пациенты чувствовали себя в безопасности и уважении, вне зависимости от их происхождения.

I don't usually write reviews, but this case should be reviewed not only by the patients of this office, but also by the HIPAA violations department, because this "doctor" is disclosing patients' private medical information, discussing another patient's health with other patients, making fun of patients' complaints and private medical information with his staff in front of other patients, thereby violating federal and state laws. This behavior of a "doctor" is not only unacceptable but also violates human rights and the law. Honestly, I was shocked by this person's behavior because I can't call her a doctor after all this. and it doesn't matter that this is a private office, the law is the law and everyone must follow the law. Very unprofessional and disgusting

I know this doctor for 15 years and there is no way that I could ever change her for another one. Doctor Lucia Avany is not only highly knowledgeable but also has an exceptional ability to explain complex medical terms in a way that is easy to understand. She takes the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and provide comprehensive advice tailored to my specific health needs.

Yes, sometimes she has a line, and appointment takes more time than expected, and this is only because she treats each patient with utmost respect and dignity, making them feel valued and cared for.

Thank you doctor for your service!

The doctor is very good, probably the best I ever had in 30 years in USA. However, the secretary is extremely rude. I called to cancel my appointment because i did full blood test a few weeks ago with another doctor (had an issue with something). The secretary yelled at me and rescheduled my appointment for a next week without my consent. I tried to explain that I don't need yet but she did it anyway. I called to cancel my forced appointment 5 days prior and was yelled at again. The day before appointment this secretary calls to confirm. I tried to explain that I don't need that appointment but she was not listening to me. She threatened to remove me completely from the doctor and hang up on me. This secretary still operates like people from back home. Rude!!!! Nasty!! Some people I know go to this doctor and they all say that front desk is rude!!
