Alpa Patel Md's Online Review Report Card

The worst doctor I’ve ever seen. Choose anyone else but her!

The worst eye care professional ever. She was obviously upset during our visit as I was in the waiting room hearing her upset on a call. She asked me question after question but got upset when I answered them because I talked...STOP TALKING!!! She lanced my eye 5 times as she examined me and if I moved from the pain I was also scolded like a child (I'm 40 with 3 masters degrees...hmmm). I think my eye is more damaged then it was when I went in to see her. She is the worst. STAY AWAY.

She is the worst doctor on the planet. I have never been so upset after leaving the doctors office. She poked and prodded at me, she injured my eye which turns out something very mild was wrong with it until she hurt it more. Stay far away from her, she has zero bedside manners, he place of business smells like old fast food, her furniture (even the chairs she is sitting on) are falling apart and disgusting. On top if that she asked me questions and when I answered she said to stop talking but then asked another question and then yelled at me to STOP TALKING. why ask a question or say OK? If you do not want someone to say OK back or to move in any way. She injured my eye and told I need to stop moving for the 8th time and thats when I said when you stop hurting my eye I'll stop moving. She got very upset at that. She is the worst, had to see another doctor who fixed me right up same day. STAY AWAY from this doctor at all cost. Your vision is something you don't want to mess with.

She completely misdiagnosed me - and actually overlooked what I discovered (by another doctor that I went to get a second opinion from) was a very visable corneal ulcer. She didn't look at my eye very long, which seemed negligent, since I had gone in complaining of pain and severe redness in my eye, especially once I discovered my eye problem was much worse than she diagnosed.

Have been going to her for a few years after friend of mine who is a registered nurse and knows about doctors around town recommended me Dr. Patel. She seems to care and be knowledgeable. She even does my pop smear.

Dr. Patel has done two eye surgeries on me and has given me almost perfect vision. She is kind, considerate and did not talk down to me as she explained the procedures. I highly recommend her.

I had Dr. A Patel (aka Alpa or Alpha) early this year. I had blurred vision and she quickly diagnosed that I had an eye allergy on one eye, and prescribed expensive medications. She made the diagnosis based on the fact that she personally also had eye allergy. Two weeks passed and my vision didn't get better so I went to get a second opinion. The doctor found the root of the problem-- hair ingrowth, which was pulled out. A few months passed by I had the same problem and went to another clinic, not realizing that Patel also worked there. ONCE AGAIN she diagnosed that I had an eye allergy. I pointed that allergy would usually occur on both eyes, and she said yes, and defended that if she saw the hair, she would have pulled it out already. She was quite upset that I told her that she misdiagnosed. She's the most impatient doctor I have ever met in my life, and she is very insulting. She kept saying that she's busy and need to go. I would never go to her again.
