Suneeta Gadde's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Gadde is assumptive, dismissive, and rude. I have Medullary sponge kidney. I produce kidney stones like mad and was referred by both my pcp and my urologist because the stones are literally killing me. Gadde did not even look at my results before she told me my stones were caused by my not hydrating enough. (I am drinking well over a gallon of water every day and my urine output is 2.5l daily which means I AM drinking enough.(plus I have suffered significant issues from over hydrating, like dangerously low sodium levels) then she told me that my stones are caused because I eat meat and that means my urine is too acidic and that I need to be vegetarian because of it(my ph is farrr too high actually and my urine shows my animal protein levels are actually very low)(but she is vegetarian, so I guess she just likes to imply that everyone's issues would be fixed if they were more like her) everything she told me is the exact opposite of what every single other specialist since then has said. In fact they all said she was just assuming because if she had actually looked at my test results she would have known all the things she was telling me to do were actually more harmful than anything. I saw her 3 times and never went back. Biggest waste of time ever. She just kept saying the same thing even when I told her my tests said the opposite of what she said.

Dr. Gadde is always very clear and thorough in my appointment. She is quick to follow up on all my lab work if she notices any reason for concern. She proactively orders other test to be sure there are no side affects from medications. My post-transplant team at University of Maryland has found her very easy to work with.
