Dr. Patricia Austria Shrestha, MD

Dismissive and quick to see you off. She does not take my father or my mother seriously when we tell her they have new concerning symptoms. We switched providers and found out both have a health issue that needs medication and a specialist. She told us: "you went to the University of google... Unlike me, who went to medical school. " When we kept telling her something was wrong. Stay away from her"care"

Discriminatory - despite being just as close to me, she placed my band-aid on the chair opposite me instead of handing it to me. Dismissive & Accusatory - she questioned my motives for care asking, "what are your goals here? To get better? To feel better? To know what's going on with you?" as if to discredit my concerns. And again, in bold font in her clinical notes, she wrote about a 'preoccup[ation]' with health under psychiatric notes, despite concerning symptoms and relevant family history related to the concern. I seems like she thought I was trying to get something out of the doctors, potentially. Otherwise, most of my appointment was spent justifying my concerns to her repeated dismissals. Inattentive - despite the nurse, electronic scribe, and repeated confirmations, she asked me the same question about whether I had seen a doctor for said concern 3X within a few minutes. Disorganized - before the visit, her team requested I combine my new patient visit and physical. They… asked me to fast, so I did for this late afternoon appointment. When I asked about the physical and bloodwork at the end of my appointment, she and her nurse said she would not be doing it with annoyance. Respect for Time - I arrived early to my appointment, spent 20 minutes detailing my concerns to the nurse. She comes in at least 25 minutes late and I have to relay everything again as if she did not read her nurse intake notes. Then she did two "procedures", which involved measuring a skin tag and clipping a nail, and left.

Doesn't care about your concerns, blows you off and doesn't take the time to give you solutions and treatments. Uncaring and not trustworthy. Don't recommend!

I went in for a 50 year old physical she walked in and got on the lab top and asked a few questions and typed the answer in and listened to my heart and said its nice to meet you. I was like really. That was a JOKE
