Called this doctors office to follow up on a request for records that had been pending for over 2 months. The nurse who answered the phone was extremely rude and unprofessional. She hung up on me and then called me back based on caller ID to yell at me again. Our office had called several times and left MULTIPLE messages with no response. STAY AWAY FROM THIS OFFICE. Clearly, the staff are not interested in being patient advocates.
He Totally misdiagnoised my fiance. Came to see this doc on recommendation from PCP and he had my fiance admitted to hospital that day where he was treated for severe depression for three weeks- including shock treatments! Dr Mishra was his attending physician and the stated to me that he was going to give my fiance a spinal tap to rule out anything medical vice mental. That never happened! My fiance continiued to get sick and I finally had the nerve to have him discharged where I promptly drove him to John Hopkins where he was properly diagoised with a rare cebral infection and properly treated. Dr, Mishra should have ruled out any and all medical issues before he put my fiance in the pysch ward for three weeks. Just do your job and dont rush your diagnosis!
Staff are very poor and Doctor is always late up to 1 hr however he is a good doctor
Dr. Mishra once had a effective and caring practice. It is now in decline as he is spending increasing amounts of time out of the country and out of contact. The administrative staff are rude, unhelpful, and completely ineffective.
Dr. Mishra is an excellent doctor. His staff is curt, rude and unresponsive They all seem to be in foul moods and it is taken out on the patient. I called 5 times to determine if a fax was sent out and on the 6th attempt the man (Tim) who works in the McLean office was very edgy to me. I wonder if this is a case where the Dr. Mishra is completely unaware that his staff lacks professionalism anddo not provide the appropriate courtesies that a patient should expect. I am debating whether or not to go to my follow up appointment because of the bad behavior of the front office.
My overall experience was wonderful. Unfortunately, my initial contact with Dr. Mishra was as a minor stroke patient at the ER Fairfax Nova, but everything from there on out was wonderful. He is kind and caring, and I was fortunate to get an appointment in a relatively short time.
Dr. Mishra diagnosed my Guillain-Barre syndrome and treated me effectively. I had never met him before he was consulted by telephone (on the recommendation of my family practice doctor) by the emergency room staff late at night. He was at my bedside early the next morning (about 7 a.m.) and reviewed for me what he thought was happening, the tests he had to run to confirm his initial diagnoses and what the course of treatment and recovery would be. He was very compassionate. I saw him numerous times during about a two-three-month period when I was struggling with the impact of the syndrome. When i had a relapse of symptoms and returned to the hospital he brought other specialists, without my asking, to review my case and see if he had missed anything. I found him to be very cary and always willing to answer questions, fill out paperwork for my disability payments and offer encouragement through the course of the syndrome.
I highly recommend Dr. Mishra and his nurse. They are great. I have been to several Neurologists and he is the first doctor that has been able to bring some relieve to my headaches.
