Dr. Rajeev Nagpal, MD

Horrible bedside manner. Was referred by my pediatrician for poor feeding and reflux issues for my 4 month old, who would cry in pain trying to eat and after. He would not let me give a history and dismissed her issues completely. He chalked it up to babies spit up and cry, deal with it. Told me to buy a book about feeding babies and Google some guy’s way of how to hold them when they cry. Blames me for trying too many things at once to fix the problem, to know what might actually help. Offered no follow up or treatment course. Made me feel like I was wasting his time being there. Assistant never came back to weigh my baby and he didn’t either, so he had no clue if she was losing or gaining weight but said she was fine. Didn’t ask what her birth weight was either, which was very low, so important she continues to gain weight. He was very distracted and left the room abruptly twice in the middle of her appointment. I left with more questions than answers, and left in tears after how we… were treated. Terrible experience.

Dr. Nagpal is treating our daughter. We never feel rushed and believe that Dr. Nagpal truly cares about her health. Thank you Dr. Nagpal!

I would like to issue a complaint against Dr. Rajeev Nagpal. He saw my son for some IBS problems he was having. The first appointment we had, we waited over an hour to be seen. Dr. Nagpal ordered tests that we had completed. Dr. Nagpal's bill was in excess of $300 and the test results are in excess of $700, that is after my insurance payment. I have BCBSIL and I pay way too much to be treated so annoyingly by taking up my time and then overcharging me. The second visit we had to Dr. Nagpal's office resulted in my son and I leaving with a copy of his test results instead of continuing the appointment because we were told it would be over an hour past our appointment time until he could see us. Their waiting room was full and the overflow was sitting on the stairs in the hallway. This is an unprofessional way to run a business and an incredibly inconsiderate way to treat patients.

I have a 4 month old son, who has had feeding issues and reflux. His pediatrician sent us to a speech therapist for an evaluation before going to the GI doctor and to have a possible swallow study done. With in minutes of being evaluated by the speech therapist she determined he was showing major signs of distress while eating and shortly after eating. She did not believe a swallow study was necessary as per her evaluation my son was latching and eating perfectly until the pain would start. She recommended we go see the GI sooner than later. That's were doctor Nagpal came in. He did not examine my son other than listen to his heart. He did not once touch his belly or try to even work with us on what could be going on. And to top it off he even saw my son eat and saw what extreme pain he was in. 45 minutes to eat not even 3 oz of formula, every other doctor and therapist saw that as a huge red flag. Dr Nagpal blew it off. He chalked it up to being colic or constipated. I expressed to… him I've had a colic child, and this is not colic. He then told me I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm sorry but as a mother I know my child, and You sir met with my son for a brief 12 minutes. I tried expressing more of his symptoms and things that I observed and he rudely cut me off each time. He left me with zero answers and my son is still in agonizing pain when he eats and sometime after!! He didn't even give him a chance. He' was extremely unprofessional and rude calling the speech therapist an idiot. Followed by a few comments in which he contridicted himself on . To then suggesting a swallow study even tho the speech therapist sent her evaluation stating she didn't believe it was necessary as her findings where more gastrointestinal related. He then said great! And just blew it off! I do not recommend this doctor for baby's who can't speak for themselves.

Poor bedside manner act like a superstar

Great doctor does not do things unless completely necessary! Very smart & detailed.

I really liked dr. nagpal, he was so nice and very helpful. He had very good suggestions and made sure to listen to my worries.

Dr. Nagpal was very pleasant, listened to me and made me feel comfortable. We had seen two other doctors with a run around. he was to the point and asked me relevant questions and was able to make a diagnosis

Brought my daughter in just to discuss some of her symptoms. My daughter was a little nervous about the treatment plan, and he became very irritated and angry with her reactions. He rudely interrupted a lot and was very quick to leave the room to attend to his next patient!

Doctor is unsure how to diagnose and feels its easier just to send you on your way looking for second opinion. Not impressed what so ever.
