Alex D. Green's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Green lacked sympathy and understanding. He did not explain the reasons for his opponions and simply told us to follow a strict diet or my daughter wont get better. He also encouraged me not to be "overly vigilant" in front of my daughter when I asked him how to ease my daughter's pain. I don't generally write reviews but I don't want other kids and parents to have to go through what I did to end up with no answers. He should try to follow the fodmap diet himself and see how hard it is. Maybe he will gain empathy for his patients.

Dr. Green miss diagnosed me with the incorrect G.I disorder which I had none of the symptoms of. Only after we got a Second opinion did we find out that has mistake could have cost me my life.

I took my son to see Dr Green for chronic vomiting one year ago. My husband and I are both physicians and we were appalled at the lack of knowledge and the poor bedside manner of this physician. He never made eye contact. He had not reviewed any of the records. He was rude and was unable to come up with any working diagnosis of what condition my son had. When we started the second opinion process with Boston Children's at Harvard we found out that they could not find any records on my son because Dr Green had spelled his name wrong on all the records. This was of course no surprise to us given that the rest of his professional work was also completely substandard. I love Lurie Childrens and they have been amazing in taking care of my kids. However, they unfortunately lowered their standards quite significantly when hiring Dr Green. Professional competence is a must in medicine.

Doctor green will not help me! I’m suffering. Throwing up daily. He was supposed to be a good doctor but obviously he got his doctor degree off the street. He’s trying to preform these harmful testing on me and I’m not having it. I’m missing so much school and work. Guess who has no help? ME! He’s also trying to do unnecessary testing. So unprofessional doctor and is only out for money. Not caring about patients.

Dr. Green ended up hurting my daughter. We came to him for help. He was supposed to be the expert. However, soon we knew he was doing more harm than good. We tried to understand what he was thinking and doing. However, he showed very little compassion and his communication was short and did not make sense. We ended up going to other docs. They reviewed the case and determined Dr. Green was very wrong. The correct treatment was given. Do not waste your time with Green.

No return calls, even after 3 messages were left

I am a clinician. We saw Dr. Green at UCSF for our son's GI issues. In short, he tried to take all hope of our son eating normally away from us. I have not witnessed another clinician, not in my private or professional career, be so definitively pessimistic with an eventual outcome. In short Dr. Green was sloppy with his critical thinking- he seems to employ a boilerplate mentality instead of individualized care. Our son eats normally now without a G-Tube; no thanks to DO Green.
