Dr. Nellya Vayngortin, MD

I choose this doctor because I am with Kaiser and she not only misdiagnosed me with my skin allergy but she rushed me through an appointment by immediatley calling the dermatologist. Then when I booked an annual physical she forgot it was a physical, did not do bloodwork, told me I looked fine when I inquired about getting a mammogram, then told me that my BMI was too high. She literally rushed through taking my vitals and family history then referred me to a dermtologist who did a $500 biopsy only to have my initial thoughts conifrmed that I had an allergic rash! I told her that I had this rash before many times and it was just a cortosone that I needed but she insisted on having a dermatologist prescribe me a cream for eczema which of course didn't work. The next day I had myself switched to another doctor in the Kaiser network. I have never had a doctor forget that I was there for a physical and then rish me out of her office. The front desk even reminded me that I was there for my… annual when I paid my visit bill.Even more telling was that I offered to have my old doctor send her copies of all my medical files dating back to my teens but she said it was not necessary. I had moved so I needed a new doctor and was surprised she was dismissive about this. When I contact my previous doctor about the whole skin issue she said that the whole process was a waste of time and money. Especially when I told Dr. V that I had experienced this skin situation before she just didn't care and was in a hurry to call a specialist. Funny, because my previous GP simply prescribed the right cream and it cleared up.
