Dr. Joseph Andrew Tornabene, MD

Very unstable personality, first visits he was as kind as could be, great listener and very helpful. Then he just flipped like a switch, I had mentioned to him I was having a symptom that I hadn’t brought up earlier to him and all of a sudden he was combative and angry and started to yell at me for actually lying to him because I hadn’t brought it up previously. I told him I didn’t appreciate him speaking to me that way and calling me a liar . He then got up in the middle of the conversation and literally walked out of the room and slammed the door behind him. My husband and I were speechless. We walked out and asked to speak to someone about reporting his conduct, we wrote a report, nothing came of it, no wonder they have a God complex and Confluence could care less. He then wrote in my chart I was “emotional”, which they didn’t remove. So I write on his “doctor chart”- UNPROFESSIONAL. Seattle I received proper care and diagnosis, sadly you won’t find it here in the valley. And I’m… shocked it says he is certified in psychiatry after my experience and reading of others.

This guy is a real jerk. He is rude and arrogant. Don’t go to him

I was referred to this doctor as my son was having seizures. At the appointment he treated him like he didn’t believe that they were real and even told me that he thought it was in his head. Unacceptable. I went to another neurologist and I am now happy

Rude, impatient, did not show any compassion or concern. I should have taken my teenager to our veterinarian. He’d have received better care there

Went as a new patient. Don’t like this guy. Will not be going back to him. Awful bedside manner.

He was ok at first but when I presented with a rare condition, instead of referring me to a university hospital he labeled me as an attention seeker. I begged my GP for a referral to UW and came back to him with my diagnoses. He apologized to my mother but not me. He damaged my reputation in the medical community to the point that I had to drive over an hour to get adequate care. Shame on him and shame on how he treats his patients.

Dr. T is very compassionate, really listens to you and works WITH you, Highly recommend him.

Felt that I was a priority and he was working to resolve issues with health

Very arrogant and condescending bedside manner. Abrupt and egotistic in the manner he communicates with patient.
