Radha V. Patnana's Online Review Report Card

I would never recommend Dr. Patnana! She is heartless and has the worst bedside manner ever! I know of 3 other people who saw her and said the same thing! She must have missed the class on "treating people the way she would want to be treated". I don't know how she keeps any patients!

I’ve had Dr. Patnana for over 10 years. She is very competent and understanding of my problems. And even though she is educated on the latest technologies, she practices an old fashioned medicine of listening to my problems and prescribing what I need to get well. She has helped me greatly with my allergies that require antibiotics most times. Most modern doctors refused to do that.

She's intelligent, and down to the point. Very smart and just don’t diagnose with medicine as the cure. She really wants your overall health to be better

This was by far one of my worst experiences ever with a healthcare provider, I felt totally embarrassed and completely uncomfortable as if the provider was wondering why you are here?? Get out! It felt like she has a list that she needs to complete and leave, she literally was telling me one thing about my case and I cut her UNINTENTIONALLY to ask about it, her response was literally (excuse me, let me finish)!!!!!!!! What???? I AM THE PATIENT?? Can’t I ask a question!!! Her medical student assistant was way more concerned and understanding and accepting to my case. I literally was discussing sensitive matters, even if they aren’t sensitive and important to you, THEY ARE IMPORTANT TO ME, that’s why I came!!! I felt so embarrassed and sad and thought maybe I am just delusional and I am just biased against her, so I went online to check her reviews, EVERY OTHER PERSON WROTE THE SAME, that she doesn’t listen, very uncaring, very arrogant, has the worst attitude and I don’t know if that’s her normal attitude but if it’s, it really needs to be reviewed because I have had the best and most respectful encounters in the office UNTIL I saw her, from the receptionist staff, the medical assistant, the medical student assistant, everyone was great but the main element of the establishment, the physician, was really not the best. Literally still traumatised and in the market again to look for someone understanding but so skeptical to see any physician or expose my sensitive matter again literally just because of her

Do not recommend Patnana at all. She’s is insensitive, culturally incompetent, non empathetic, and heteronormative. She thinks she knows better about my pain, never listens to patient.

I have had Dr. Patnana as my GP for many years. She has always been very knowledgeable, kind, and listens very well. Those are qualities that are hard to find in todays world.

I've only had one visit with Dr. Patnana, but I found her kind, caring and patient. She spent time with me, discussing my concerns, and was accepting of my somewhat unorthodox approach to my healthcare, although letting me know when she disagreed with me. Time will tell, but I think perhaps what other people have reacted to is that she appears to be a "leveler" in her style of communication -- very direct and to the point. As long as there is mutual respect, I have no problem with this communication style. I detected no lack of respect in our exchange.

Dr. Patnana was my PCP 3 years ago but I stopped going to her. She didn't seem to listen, making snap decision and rush you out of the door, making you feel bad about telling her more information. Hopefully her bedside manner has improved since.

yes, My wife and I have been her patients for over 10 years. I recently had Covid and she got me right into St. Luke's and everything is getting better. She's great!

I have been going to Dr Patnana for about 14 years she is the best physician I have ever had. And I don't change too many doctors I prefer a woman doctor for my health needs. Sometimes people are having a bad day and we need to not take this against them.
