This doctor just up and left his practice leaving patients without follow up or records. No ability to receive our records and all attempts at getting records rebuffed. Multiple record release forms sent with no response. Multiple phone calls and messages, no response. This is a DISGRACE!!!!!!!!!!

I went to Dr. Iyers after waiting three months. I brought in blood tests from another doctor plus tests from the hospital lab (that cost four times then private labs). He said that everything was in order. Then gave me prescription and told me to come back in six months. I told him of my symptoms. I showed him my journal. I brought in books I was reading. I was desperate for help. He shook his head and said everything was fine. He didn't listen to me to me at all. He moved his offices and didn't even notify his patients. After two more appointments and trying to get him to help me figure out what was wrong I moved on. It took three years and nine endocrinologists before someone took the time and helped me get to my diagnosis. If you want a doctor that cares don't go to this guy. He simply reads test results and treats accordingly. It doesn't matter how you feel.Terrible.

The doctor frequently takes phone calls during the office visit. He has to start over every time he returns.Not very good in focusing on what is important when the patient is in his office
