Dr. Benjamin Paul Fiedler, MD

Belittles people for not being ideal patients.

Doctors are suppose to help people, not belittle them for not being up to his standard.

This doctor is a complete waste of time. He will not continue your treatment from a precious physician (10+ years) but would rather “just refer you off somewhere”. He’s a blood sugar and blood pressure management kinda guy only, he’s not here to actually help you. Good luck getting him to manage those from my point of view. Oh yeah, and I’m a nurse so I’ve seen a lot of doctors. He hates his job.

I don't understand why this man is even a doctor. I understand the clinic he works at is an uninsured low-income clinic but that sure doesn't give him the right to treat people like we don't matter. I have fibromyalgia and the only reason I am seeing him now is because my other doc left and he comes in the room and is there for two seconds and tries to push me out. I have all these questions and stuff and he looks at me like I'm stupid for asking them and when I tell him I don't want to take a med that makes me a zombie he refuses to listen and keeps me on it. I am requesting copies of my medical records so I can see just what, if anything, he's written in my files.

Dr. Fiedler does not take the time to listen to what one is saying to him. I feel him to be quite judgemental, I realize that he is working at a clinic that is for the underinsured and underserved, but that does not give him the right to treat any patient with any thing less than respect, compassion and humility. He does not inform you of lab results in a timely fashion, often months go by with no results. I recently was misdiagnosed by him on a condition, I verified his diagnosis with two other professionals and found him to indeed be wrong. Furthermore when he gave his diagnosis he gave me no further instruction or information, just told me he would call in a script. Never mind that the condition he was diagnosing is a condition that has to be controlled for life. I have seen him four times, and he has no bedside manner. He maybe fine to see if you have a cold or something simple, I however would be weary of anything else!

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Fiedler. He took time to listen to my concerns/symptoms and made everything seem easy. He's nice and calm and has great energy. He wrote me a prescription and was on my way feeling better than when I walked in.

Bedside manor was very poor. He made me feel like I was doing something wrong by being there. I don't think he likes people in general but...if I had a choice it sure wouldn't be him again.

I gave him a list of my symptoms and he dismissed them as if I were lying. Didn't take time to listen and assess my illness. Was annoyed when I asked about the results from the test the nurse performed on me. Was even more annoyed when I asked him what medications he was prescribing me. Didn't even stay in the room during the entire visit. I had to follow him into the hallway to finish with my questions. My advice: stay away from this unprofessional doctor. Find someone who won't concentrate on proving that he knows your body more than you do and treat you like an annoyance.

...of a doctor who shows up two hours late to his appointments with bloodshot eyes, then dr. Fiedler is your man!

I wait in the waiting room at least a half hour before every appointment. Then I wait another 10 - 20 minutes for the dr to come in. He comes in asks me whats wrong and writes a script and he is out of there. When I ask questions he seems to get frustrated that I am taking up valuable time.
