After 3 visits, I am done with this provider. 1st visit, after driving from Prescott to Phoenix, she was late, then on the phone taking care of personal issues, then condescendingly told me she will not address anything other than routine endocrinology "its not her job", after asking about nutrient absorbtion, even though she was chosen based off her profile showing "metabolic issue expert". Second visit was by video. She was 45 minutes late, then condescending when I challenged some of her opinions. 3rd visit (video) 15 minutes late, and after 10 minutes of conversation she said "I dont have a half hour to talk about this, I suggest you make an educated decision", after advising me to go off meds cold turkey with zero substantiation, citations other than her "expert opinion". She asked about blood work which she did not specify, and deflected when I gave data based answers that contradicted her opinion. In my opinion Bhat should only treat female patients with routine… deficiencies, despite the "expertise" and superiority complex.

Dr. Bhat is a wonderful doctor. Her bedside manner is what you would look for in a doctor. She is very knowledgeable about the medications she prescribes. No matter how long in between appointments she remembers me and my concerns. Her sincere caring for her patients is awesome. She has been the best doctor for me. I recommend her highly. I would give her 10 stars if they were available.
