Dr Shalini Patcha

Dr. Patcha took the time necessary to diagnose a serious problem. She immediately sent me for 2 MRI exams and recommended an excellent surgeon. I had Major Surgery and have been recovering for more than 1 month. I still have to face at least another month before I can feel really good and begin to resume my normal lifestyle. I thank Dr. Patcha for finding my problem and recommending the necessary treatment.

Dr. Patcha listens and carefully diagnoses and treats each complaint that you discuss with her.

After having several seizures and looking for a good doctor I was unfortunately referred to this woman. Her office staff was incredibly rude and unhelpful. When I finally saw the doctor and explained my situation she was incredibly judgmental. She compared me to her son stating "I don't know what's wrong with you young people smoking pot." INCREDIBLY unprofessional. She also misread my MRI telling me that I had brain atrophy and that my brain had aged 10 years older than me. I found out later from a doctor at Columbia Presbyterian's epilepsy center that this was simply not true.Dr. Patcha did not diagnose, treat, or even suggest anything for my condition. She simply billed me and made me feel even worse when dealing with a life changing condition.I hope that this will help someone...I wish that I had seen a poor review before wasting my time.
