Dr. Durga Prasad Maganti, MD

He cares about the patient, there health

Long waits, archaic office (nurse made notes on Post-it notes and stuck them on computer and counter during patient nterview). Sloppily dressed nurse. Dr. in and out in three minutes. Dr. blew off patient trying to discuss major swelling in ankle and leg. Patient is visibly overweight, patted her on the shoulder and said I can give you a medication for your weight. Not the reason for visit but he made that the focus.

I had to seek this doctor out for information on my mother during her hospital stay (I am her poa, and visited the hospital 2-3 times a day during her stay). He spoke over me rather then to me and has yet to release my mother back to the nursing home after recommendation from her former pcm.

doesn't listen

NO TIME FOR ME

Ive had many Dr's over the years and Dr Maganti is by far the worst. He doesn't listen to his patient, talks over them (interrupting them as they try to describe their symptoms), and is unable to actually think about a problem that doesn't fit into the "easy, mainstream" category. It is a shame that Dr's like him cant apply troubleshooting techniques to a problem instead of dismissing them as un-important and rushing out. He always seems to be in too much of a rush to get away than to actually get involved. Maybe he could spend some time actually caring about his patients vs. worrying about getting his Dr fee for the minimal amount of work required. He is a disgrace to the few decent Dr's left out there and should seriously reconsider his profession. Avoid him at all costs!
