Dr. Joshua Lotfallah, MD

I don’t normally leave bad reviews for doctors unless it was something really egregious. I had a one hour new patient appointment for depression and anxiety. He spent spent approximately 10 minutes with me. I told him I was suffering from depression and anxiety, and before I could expand or elaborate on how severe my symptoms were he immediately jumped to increasing the dosage of the current medication that I’m on. I asked about how to help manage my anxiety. He told me that the depression medication might increase my anxiety, and that it was a side effect I might just have to deal with. I ended that appointment and immediately scheduled an appointment with a different provider. I do not feel as though I was taken seriously and basically dismissed. my symptoms are having a severe impact on my daily life, and I felt like I wasn’t listened to at all.

Helped lower my anxiety. Always reliable for refills.

Great listener. Was able to help we a lot with my depression. Very knowledgeable about med management.

Complete waste of time. My pharmacy has been trying to reach him to refill my prescription for over a week now. I have called every number I can find for him and can't get through to anyone. I guess I just have to stop my meds cold turkey. Thanks for nothing Lotfallah.

Always on time. Listened to me. Made the write changes.

Way to quick to give out psych meds to the elderly who he don't even know their history! Saw my 90 yr old mom once and prescribed anti depressant Desvenlafaxine, for "depression." she was not depressed! She was grieving the loss of a family member, which is NORMAL This drug landed her in the hospital with severe side effects! hallucinating along with the inability to sleep were the worst! This Dr. diagnosed her with depression and cured her with hallucinations and sleep deprivation! She almost didn't survive this drug! ! Stay away!!

Perhaps experience will help him. Do not trust your mental health to him.

Actually listens to you

Not reliable at all
