Tallat Mahmood's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Mahmood is a very competent, concerned and caring health care practitioner. I couldn't have asked for a better oncologist!

The doctor was in a horrible mood ... continually groaning and sighing. I came in for a simple evaluation of the blood thinner I was on. She pretty much gave me a death sentence based on my treatment of cancer from 40 years ago, of which I've been cancer free for that same period of time. Just an awful experience that no one facing or having faced cancer should find acceptable.

I have been treated by Dr Mahmood for about 8 years. She has treated me for CLL and has been wonderful. Very caring and the office staff from the front desk to the chemo nurses have been top of the line to say the least.

I had a carcinoid tumor in my lungs. I was very anxious and afraid. Her kind and quiet manner was very helpful to me. Her expertise and concern for my entire well being was greatly appreciated and needed. I can't say enough good about her treatment and quiet and kind manner. I could ask her anything and she took the time to answer and meet my needs. Great Doctor. :)

I'm very happy with the treatment I've received from Dr. Mahmood. She is very concerned about my well being as a patient. She is thorough and communicates very well. The regimen she prescribed for me worked very well. I would highly recommend her.

40 minute wait for doctor after I was in room. When she came in had laptop and cell phone, Phone rang and she answered it. Could tell it was not an emergency and she kept on the phone ignoring me. After a minute or two I walked out.

She seem to be very patient with me & answer any questions I may have. I have not had any bad experience with her.

I'm very happy to be a patient of Dr Mahmood I have been waiting for answers why I get blood clots all the time for yearsand now I feel she will be the one to out why!! My mind is finally at ease being her patient !!!!

Well, where to begin? Had I known the level of professionalism of this "doctor" when I began a prolonged aggressive cancer Chemo Therapy treatment program, I would have run away and never looked back. But like most things in life, hindsight is 20/20. There are so many minor details that go unnoticed while enduring treatment that one cannot know until one has gone through the process. And by the time the patient gets all of the necessary information about their particular condition, that this oncologist deems important, it's too late. Pulling teeth is easier than obtaining pertinent information from this doctor. I always got the impression that she was going out of her way to utter anything related to my care. Trying to be as objective as possible with this doctor was difficult, as her diagnosis kept changing, and the entire time during our "personal" doctor/patient 10 minute meetings, she never looked up from her computer screen, constantly typing. It was as though I wasn't even present, just one more number/test result. To be honest, my overall impression is that this doctor's patient care is lacking, and I'm glad to have moved on to a different oncologist, and that difference is like night and day. For what it's worth, get a second opinion before opting to use Mahmood, you'll thank yourself that you did.

Dr. Mahmood is a cold, uncaring doctor. She gave us the diagnosis of liver cancer but, after I got a copy of my mother's medical records, the truth is that it is pancreatic cancer. She NEVER told us that. In addition, in her notes she wrote: "The family seemed upset that there was not a plan, but that was the best I could do." Unbelievable! She also wrote that one of our visits lasted 60 minutes--untrue. We saw her for 20 minutes, during which she spent 15 minutes reading my mother's file. We are now seeking out a new oncologist and Mahmood is resisting giving us a referral. It's ironic that the voicemail for their office talks about how they care about their patients. Mahmood should listen to that message.
