Patricia Carabajal, MD

I had my first visit a few days ago after waiting 6 months for the first appointment with her as my new primary care doc. My blood pressure has been a bit high, and I had questions and concerns about other issues. 1, she thought I'd seen her before, and did not ask me for my medical update. 2, she had a PA student working with her and left the room and let him do the exam. Not bad until I realized he did not relate my situation to her. 3, I ask for a referral for a dermatologist, she didn't refer me to anyone. 3. She told me just to keep track of my BP. There was no mention of what to do about it. I haven't had any blood tests for a few years, and there was no mention of any. She opened the door and said nice to see you. I wanted to leave within the first 5 minutes of my appointment. I'm sad that docs are so overloaded that they can't take the time to do a better job. That's my only excuse I can think of to defend her actions.

I think she is the best doctor in Albuquerque she is great and understand and give great diagnosis

Dr Carabajal is very caring and thoriugh. She is always interested in my health and welfare and has provided good care and counsel over the yearts I have been her patirnt.
