Midtown Medical Associates

Ok everything has been great going here. Been going here now seven years and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. I think the office has gotten even better the longer I have been getting here. Or maybe I am just planning my visit better. Either way A+ from me.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Rollins for over 15 years. He always takes time to listen, understand, and provide the correct course of action. I can’t say enough nice things about Dr. Rollins, his nurse Carol, and the front line staff. HIGHLY Recommended!

Dr Rollins is a very thorough and thoughtful physician. He has an excellent demeanor in the patient room. I’m pleased with him and his staff!

Just tried to book an appointment with Dr. Rachal and was told that he is only accepting new patients if they have «certain kinds of insurance.» The receptionist had me read off some info from my Humana insurance card and then I was told that he would not see me because it was not a group policy (it is an individual POS policy… and it is not CHEAP!). When I inquired more about it, she said that he does not accept new plans from anyone that has an individually purchased plan, or one that is purchased through the Healthcare exchange (which mine was not). When I asked why, she said it was simply the «doctor’s preference.» I find this absolutely appalling.

Dr. Rollins and his staff are super duper nice and a pleasure to visit. For a few months up to my visit I was feeling super bummed out and tired all the time. My previous doc thought it was depression or thyroid issues but Dr. Rollins didn’t take their word for it and ran blood work and figured out I was «severely deficient» in vitamin D. Which is weird bc I spend a lot of time outdoors. He hand wrote me a letter that I got in the mail two weeks after my appointment explaining it and telling me how much vit D to take and for how long and why. After a few weeks, I now feel back to my olé self and not tired anymore. I’m supposed to go back in three months for him to double check to see if I’m up to normal again and fig out why I was so deficient.
Also, I explained in my first appt that I once went to a derm that never sent me my results no matter how many times I asked them to mail, email, or fax them to me. The next time I saw Dr. Rollins, he walked in with not just my file from that derm, but also their own derm who explained and interpreted my lab results from the other derm I went to a year ago and no they didn’t charge me for it.
Love this place.

From the MOMENT you enter this facility, you are cared for. I am once again astounded by the level of professionalism, care, and kindness with Midtown Medical. It’s shocking that every person on the staff works at the highest level of his/​her craft. We live in Europe and will be traveling to Midtown Medical because they are the best.

It took a while for us to find a primary care physician here in Atlanta, but when we found Dr. K, we were both very happy. It is clear that he is looking out for our best interest, is very patient in listening to and understanding problems for correct diagnosis, and does not rush to put you on unnecessary medications. Making appointments to see him is fairly painless. My only complaint is that on two seperate occasions, I had to call to the office to get my lab results back, when they should have called me the day before. The bottle neck could be the hospital itself, but they should have called saying theyre still waiting if thats the case. Nothing was serious either time.

Dr. Rollins is AMAZING! I have never felt so listened to at a doctor’s office.
Also, make sure to make note of the previous reviewer’s directions of how to get to the office… it’s kind of tricky.

I’m a student at Georgia Tech, and I was looking for a new doctor around the Midtown area. I read positive reviews here and decided to go.
First, getting to the office can be a little confusing. You turn into the Emory Hospital Midtown parking area. It’s off of Peachtree Street, in between Linden Ave and Pine St. Once you park in the parking deck, you take the elevator to «F» and go into the building. You then go down the short escalator, go left for the elevators, and take it to floor 12. Their offices are in 1230. (I write this because I got lost and spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out where to go.)
Anyway, the visit was great. I saw Dr. Koralewski for a general physical. He came in quickly after the nurse left, and sat down and talked to me before anything else. He asked some simple questions and heard me out. I told him about some issues I had going on, and he asked me what I thought about medication and if I was open to the idea in order to treat what was going on. He explained my options, what he would recommend, and why.
I didn’t feel rushed, undervalued, or pressured in any way. He was kind, polite, and listened to me. I felt like a human being — with thoughts that mattered. The physical exam itself was short and comfortable. I was in and out in about an hour (part of it my fault — had some issues with my insurance card once I got there that I needed to address), but the front desk staff was great in handling that too.
Parking ended up being $ 5 for that hour, and getting lost initially was somewhat inconvenient, but it was worth the ease of the appointment and the kindness of Dr. Koralewski. I will continue to go back here as my new doctor.

I don’t understand why have valet parking where you drop off people create such congestion

For me, a doctor’s bedside manner is just as important as his/​her education and experience. I can’t stand being judged or treated like a Simmental in a herd of cattle, forced across a field by a cow dog for the sake of the big man’s pocket.
At Midtown Medical Associates, Dr. Koralewski is patient, thorough and caring. At my most recent appointment, he wrapped up my immediate concern and remembered to follow up about a problem from my appointment prior to that. He spent an additional 20 minutes going over my options to address that issue as well.
Having to navigate Emory’s parking garage and pay $ 5 for an hour-​long appointment is worth it in this case.

After several bad doctor experiences in the past, I decided to actually do some research and find a qualified, caring doctor. My research ultimately led to Dr. Rollins at MMA. I called mid-​last week and was able to get an appointment for less than 7 days later, which is awesome, because I hate having to schedule months out. The receptionist was very nice and efficient. I wanted a basic check-​up, in addition to having some issues looked at, but apparently Dr. Rollins doesn’t do full health exams on the first visit. go figure.
My appointment was scheduled for 11am and I was told to come about 30 minutes prior to my appointment to fill out new patient paperwork, so I did. The new patient paperwork was actually one sheet of paper, which did not require 30 minutes, so that was a waste of time. There was a steady stream of traffic in the office, mainly people walking in and I was surprised at how quickly the waiting room filled up. I was finally called back at around 11:10am and had my vitals done. The nurse directed me to a room in the back corner and I waited. and waited.and waited for 30 minutes. I honestly thought that they may have forgotten about me since I was in some back corner room or something. Finally at around 11:40, Dr. Rollins walked in and apologized and started asking basic medical and family history questions and inquired about my current issues. Now, I had pretty much written off this practice, but once I met Dr. Rollins, I felt really comfortable and not rushed at all! He has amazing bedside manner and patient respect. I did not feel rushed and my appointment almost felt more like a conversation. I figure that since he probably treats all of his patients like this, then he probably does run behind, but I’m okay with that now. All in all, I think he was great, and am glad to have found my new PCP.

Have you ever been to a doctor that wasn’t rushed, sit and listened to you whine and even was actually sympathetic? me either. Until Dr. Koralewski.

I recently had an appointment with the PA, Wayne. Let me count the ways that this place is AWESOME:
1. Their main receptionist, Crystal, is efficient, highly competent, and sweet as sunshine.
2. Wayne is Dr. Factoid. It’s obvious that he’s up-​to-​date on medical research. For every course of treatment we talked about, he was able to substantiate his recommendation with a «well, study X found that dosage Y was best during Z, but that dosage C was equally as effective and less irritating, etc…» You get my drift.
3. They were on time. My appointment was at 3. I was in the room at 3, and shortly thereafter Dr. Factoid appeared. WHEN DOES THIS HAPPEN AT A DOCTOR’S OFFICE?
4. The appointment was never rushed. Wayne answered my (long list) of questions. He was personable and patient.
5. I received a goodie bag full of samples and prescription discounts. I didn’t even need to ask.

He and his office have been there for me when I really, really needed them for an emergency. I owe him a lot!

I’m writing reviews for the doctors I saw separately, but I figured I might as well go ahead and review the practice that employs such great practicioners.
I was looking for a new primary care doctor and a new dermatologist, so it worked out well that the highest Unilocaled doctors’ office on Unilocal had both of those, and accepted my insurance (United). I was told upon calling that both Drs. Koralewski and Rollins were accepting new patients, but that I could see Dr. Koralewski sooner. Done. Sadly, there weren’t any appointments with Dr. Rachal (the dermatologist) available on the same day as my other appointment, but there was one the next day.
The receptionist directed me to their website (which looks like it’s down now, boo) to fill out the new patient paperwork before I arrived. This saved quite a bit of time when it was actually time for my appointment, and I hardly had to wait 10 minutes before the doctor was able to see me both times.
If you require any labwork, they’ll send you onto a different practice, but it’s in the same building which is very convenient. And of course, the whole thing is attached to Crawford Long Hospital in case anything goes REALLY wrong.
I got a little lost and ended up parking in the hospital lot off of Linden, but you can get your parking validated at the desk when you enter the hospital, and the medical tower is just a short indoor walk away.
I haven’t received my bills yet, but assuming everything gets sent to my insurance company properly, I think I’ve found my doctors for many years to come.

I have been searching for a good intown doctor since my former doc decided to move to the suburbs. I could not be happier with my new doctor, Dr. Koralewski. He is professional, inquisitive, and thorough. You can tell that he genuinely wants to know everything about you for the purposes of providing excellent health advice.
The staff here is outstanding; they’re friendly and helpful, and all of them seemed to have a great attitude.
I debated between 4 and 5 stars and MMA lost a star due to no fault of their own: the parking situation is a bit rough. The parking deck is huge, and it takes a significant amount of time to find a space when you get there and also when you leave. Other than that, I have just found my doctor for many years to come.

THANK YOU, Thank you, Thank you to my fellow Unilocalers who Unilocaled the doctor!
Yes, I waited for over two months for my new patient appointment, but from what I hear, once you’re in, you’re in. Dr. Rollins was worth the wait!
Often times, doctors make you feel uninformed, unworthy of hearing the medial info and uninvited to ask questions. Dr. Rollins seriously made me feel really comfortable, totally did the whole ‘small talk thing’ that I am a fan of (he really did want to hear about my trip to Cambodia!), and totally invited any and all questions. Yayyy!

Yes Dr. Rollins is IMPOSSIBLE to see, but the other doctors are just as great and I have had great visits with them, so I just changed my primary from Dr. Rollins to Dr. Koralewski. You can get in usually within the week to see him and he is great.

Never actually met Dr. Rachal, the dermatologist, but I go to his PA, Wayne. He is overly cautious in a good way and answers all of my questions with patience. I’ll keep going back. Oh, and the Crawford Long Medical Tower parking deck has one of those machines that takes your credit card as your driving out– awesome for those of us who never have cash for parking…
