Hari Tunuguntla's Online Review Report Card

was seeing Dr. Tunuguntla I saw the nurse practitioner in the office she ordered an ultrasound and at the same time recommended I get another opinion from a different doctor glad I listened and did because he wanted to do Botox injections but couldn't because I'm type 1 diabetic and my sugar was high so i couldn't have it done unless I got medical clearance from Endocrinology I went to maybe 3 or 4 different doctors for opinions who all said the same thing if I would've got those injections it would've made things so much worse for me because my bladder is already damaged to where I don't always get the urge to pee until last minute and my bladder doesn't empty all the way

Please stay FAR AWAY from this doctor. He does not care about his patients and does not provide proper care. If you are paired with this doctor, please request a new one ASAP.

Rude, arrogant and condescending. Scheduled me for the wrong tests. Told me he couldn’t, or rather wouldn’t, help me. Had to call his staff about 12 times to get any followup. He talks back to patients giving negative reviews and violates doctor patient confidentiality by broadcasting their conditions, which is why I’m not leaving anything identifying in this review. Useless doctor, useless staff.

Few doctors exist with the capacity and dedication as Dr. Hari takes his patients seriously. In addition to his capacity and dedication, we find in him the human part of understanding of his patients. I would not look for another Dr. as long as he exists. Besides being grateful, I am alive because I found him. Thank you Dr. T.

My sister was diagnosed with kidney stones, and had to be taken to RWJH where she was admitted for a few days, and under went many tests, none of which said she needed an emergency Stent or a catheter. They recommended we make an appointment with a urologist after she was released, just to have a relationship with one in case she has issues going forward. We made an appointment a month later with Hari Tunuguntla, MD. Almost Exactly what happened to Rodney in his review below mine happened to my quadraplegic sister who went to see Dr.T. He ordered an important test where they have to run dye through you, but wanted to put a Stent in her kidney before she went for this test. That was a red flag if if I ever saw one, and decided to cancel this procedure, and get a second opinion with a doctor that had a lot of great reviews, and excellent credentials. He too ordered the same test and additional blood work. After getting back the results, he said my sister's kidney was fine, and we should come back for a follow-up in a few months. Dr. Tunuguntla was very condescending to my mother, and was acting like this was a life or death situation if she didn't get it done. My sister has a lot of scar tissue from many previous surgeries and putting a Stent in her kidney before getting her results back, in my opinion, is absolutely malpractice, because that could have, unnecessarily, opened the door to other serious issues. He also put a catheter in my sister, which turned out was not needed either. This other doctor checked her bladder with his sonar machine after her catheter had been removed 5 days prior, and said her bladder was completely empty of urine, which meant it was working properly.

I went to this doctor to discuss some pain I was having. He told me he had no idea what was causing the pain, but proceeded to tell me that I needed to have a stent put into my kidney. I felt uncomfortable with this since he hadn’t even done any testing. I went for a second opinion to find out that he was absolutely wrong and could have no idea of knowing without the proper tests and tests results. He is a horrible doctor who rushed me and tried to give me a completely unnecessary major surgery. I have reported him and caution everyone to stay away from this doctor.

Dr. Tunuguntla should be fired.

I have on serval occasions recommended Dr. Tunuguntla to family and friends. In my opinion he is the best. Dr. T takes the time to make sure his patients fully understand their medical condition and takes the time to answer any And all questions. In the office or on the phone we never felt like we were ever being rushed. After my husband’s procedure I called Dr. T to ask some questions and he always returned my call in a very timely manner (same day). In addition his medical staff is very professional and friendly.

Excellent tele-health visit. This is part of a long history I have with Dr. T.
