Dr. Kinjal Navin Sheth, MD

During my family member's critical care stay in Lifebridge, our interactions with the attending physician, Dr. Sheth , were deeply concerning. We found his bedside manner lacking in empathy; communication often felt abrupt and dismissive of our anxieties. Furthermore, we witnessed Dr. Sheth speaking disrespectfully to the medical students on rounds, which was unprofessional and uncomfortable. This overall approach made our family feel uneasy and hesitant to ask questions, adding significant stress during an already difficult time

I was under his care for over 2 weeks and the entire stay he was trying to push me to sign a DNR and be moved to Hospice. I am a 49 year old African-American woman with diabetes, I don't have cancer, so why would not try everything possible to help me and save my life? Is he getting money from the Hospice people for referrals?

My mother ended up under his care on a vent and when I finally got a chance to speak with him to find out what else can be done he answered gleefully: "We can always take her off the vent to die!" How are people like this still allowed to practice?
