Anika Reddy

I saw Dr Anika Reddy in the GW Emergency Room for a painful and swollen lymph node which she stated she nor her team could not feel at all (which was ridiculous because it was a big, swollen knot)… During the exam, I felt the doctor was not listening to my guidance about where the pain and swelling were. When I tried to help point to the correct area, the doctor reacted by scolding me and telling me not to touch her hand repeatedly, and kept on going on about not touching her hand…instead of focusing on examining the affected area. If you feel the need to be pretentious during an exam, let me remind you: it’s my body. If you’re touching the wrong spot, it’s a privilege for you to even lay hands on your patients. Listen, pay attention, and stop chastising the patient for trying to help guide you. Some people are clearly working in a hospital for all the wrong reasons… Won’t be back and don’t recommend her bedside manner at all
