Sujata Sarkar's Online Review Report Card

I had been seeing Dr Sarkar for 8 years. I recently had a bad flare up and learned bc I hadn’t seen her since the end of 2019 I had to be treated like a new patient. I didn’t get the chance to explain that during that time it was the pandemic, I had dealt with a pre cancer diagnosis, getting COVID, and having gall bladder surgery and an abnormal mammogram that resulted in two biopsies. It was going to be 3 months before I could see her. I accepted the appt bc my knees are filled with fluid. 7 days before my appt I get a courtesy call and they go on to inform me it’s a telehealth appt which I was not informed of when I made my appt. I reminded them my knees are filled with fluid and I needed an in-person appt. They informed me I couldn’t get that bc she only did video appts on that day. I broke down in tears. I had waited 3 months for some relief. It was so disheartening. I have never been treated this way in the 24 years that I have been living with RA

She helped save my life from a rare autoimmune disorder that put me into kidney failure and attacked my lungs (along with other less dangerous symptoms) and has continued to be awesome now that I'm seeing her as an outpatient. For Christmas, she gave me my life.

I have been a patient of Dr. Sarkar for many years. I have always found the staff to be cordial and helpful with scheduling my appointments. The waiting room, exam rooms and bathroom are always clean and hand sanitizer is available at the entrance/exit door. Dr. Sarkar allows sufficient time for my exam and any questions I may have. She is receptive to my input, and together we have achieved a treatment ...

After a telemedicine appt, it was determined that I needed to be seen in person due to unexplained pain. I had an appt scheduled yet when I showed up for it, I was told that she only sees in person on fridays. I drove 40 miles to see her, grandson missed school and I begged to be squeezed in or to be seen by another dr. Nope. Earliest next appt was end of September. I was 'butt-dialed' one day as well and could hear them discussing patients in a not so good manner. I yelled n yelled that I was there but wasn't heard so I hung up. Business practices are less than stellar and I've never really felt that she cared for what I was going through, as is evidenced by scheduling of appts. It would have taken maybe 10?? minutes to see me. That's more than what I've gotten to see her in the past. Now I get to find a new rheumatologist, which will take awhile to get into I'm sure. But hopefully they'll have a better business and more caring and attentive bedside manner.

For the last few years I have been dealing with things that other doctors can't associate to anything. I had blood work done and spent a good amount of time with Dr. Sarkar. Based on my results and exam she was able to diagnose me following a few more tests. It's the first time in forever that I feel hopeful. In addition she really took the time to listen and examn me. She is wonderful and I feel so thankful to of found her.

Dr. Sarkar takes the time to listen to her patients and develop a care plan that is easy to follow. She makes sure you understand what is happening with your condition to better care for yourself. She has been a blessing to an underserved population.

I have been a patient of Dr Sarkar for several years. I do not have a solid diagnosis but she has been engaged and helpful in trying to find diagnoses. She has been available to me online (once even out of the country) when I need urgent help. Plus she is an overall nice person. I feel very comfortable with her.

I am quite unhappy with Dr Sarkar. She gave me an incorrect diagnosis and absolutely no answers or follow up. She diagnosed me with fibromyalgia and told me a few vague things about activities that I should avoid. I asked about treatment options and was told that there was nothing she could do and even told me there are no medications to help (there are). My primary physician was also surprised and upset with how little information she gave me about fibromyalgia. Look elsewhere.

Very slow at inputting data into the portal so the patient is informed.

I am so disappointed with these office people. The first time they could not see me, even though i got there 30 minutes early. Supposedly because I was a new patient. They even wanted to charge me. Gave me a next appointment for 3 month. The day my students had promotion, I had to rush out to go to this appointment only to tell me that the doctor was out. Supposedly they call me. There was no message left telling me it was cancelled. The staff was not caring at all and they negated me the right to talk to the office manager.
