A family member recently passed away. We were trying to make funeral arrangements out of state and needed her death certificate to be filled out in order to transfer her remains. An associate of Dr. Mehta had been the treating physician and was unfortunately on vacation at this time. Dr. Mehta had been contacted as the doctor on-call for assistance. When discussing this, Dr. Mehta was extremely RUDE and INSENSITIVE. He stated that the cardiologist doesn't do this and we should contact the PCP. We then asked for the PCP name, but were unable to understand, so we asked him to spell it, to which he rudely replied, "I'm only doing this once." Then, when asked if he had the PCP's number, he did not answer and simply said "I have to get back to my patients and hung up." Completely unbelieveable, NO COMPASSION
