Excellent doctor

This woman is one of the rudest and most self important people I have ever met. It's funny because I am not certain she actually has a medical degree after asking me how she should do her job. I brought her x-rays to follow up on a CT with a nodule and she got angry and couldn't read them. Then she proceeded there condescending attitude to lecture me about not getting in sooner (I was several months late on my follow up because I work 2 full time jobs and have 3 young kids). I don't write a lot of reviews but this experience was so very bad that I feel compelled to warn anyone considering seeing this woman. She charged $400 for the 10 minutes I spent in her office for her to tell me absolutely noting and skyrocket my blood pressure because she was such a raging B****!

If you get a referral to see her, it may be healthier to call your Ins co. and demand a different pulmonologist. She did not care about me and she certainly wasn’t interested in preliminary treatments to relieve painful symptoms . Over-the-top laziness combined with a F U attitude can cause serious problems for this medícal group. She did not care if I could not breathe. She said she had too many patients. She offered prescriptions in exchange for rescheduling the appointment!! without knowing what symptoms to treat!! Unbelievable. It took no small effort to get the pulmonologist referral. After months I was hoping for help with my breathing. She answered “I don’t know “ to almost every question I had. She should have said “I don’t care “. She looked at me with distain as if she had something important to do and I was stopping her from being someplace that she wanted to be. I can’t breathe many times during the day. I have been to urgent care twice where breathing treatments were given along with steroid injection and a 5 day steriod program that really helped . My husband has to hit me in the upper back often to dislodge painful phlem. I should have taken her original offer of prescriptions and to reschedule appointment with someone way more professional. Then maybe she would prescribe an inhaler with steroids to open airways or albuterol tablets, something for now!! Maybe I could get an order for a chest X-ray that must be mandatory for such a long-standing complaint...MRI would be better. I got no Rx nothing!!!!!! So my daughter and husband are still hitting my back to try loosening the phlegm.

Extremely rude, rushed, and condescending. I understand specialists are busy rounding in the hospital and seeing patients in clinic, however, I felt particularly uncomfortable. This doctor was the epitome of poor bedside manner. She did not introduce herself and made me feel as if I was wasting her time. Whether it’s a patient, staff member, or a colleague— everyone should be treated with respect. She continued to question why my primary care did not order certain tests and even questioned my symptoms. I would not recommend her to anyone and will not be returning.

Very thorough, patient, and knowledgeable.
