Dr. Rahul Madhav Tamhane, MD

Hey talks down or over you. Never carries a stethescope, but always seemed to document my heart and lung sounds. Looking at my chart his notes are inncorrect and made me wonder if there was something I wasn't being told. Took him forever to come give discharge orders. Never answered any of my questions with a direct response. He clearly knew nothing about me, my health. He even got all of my medication orders wrong. The poor nurse couldn't get him to respond to multiple paging attempts. I finally gave up and went to my private doctor the next day to get everything fixed. I feel afraid for those patients who rely on him to do the right thing...and he is so wrong. He is full of himself, and he thinks very highly of himself.... prancing around like a little rooster...

I was amazed at how impressed he is with being in his own presence.. quite full of himself.Never answered my questions, always skirted them. took forever to come see me the day I was to be discharged home.Then took forever to get my discharge orders right so I knew exactly what I was to do for follow up..

never listened to my heart or lungs when he made his oh so visits.. I don't even know if he carried a stethescope with him, or if he even knows how to use one.He was in and out so fast my nurse didn't even know he had been there. I asked what he had to say, and every nurse that cared for me indicated that they weren't even aware that he had been by. When asking what he said in his notes, the nurses would read them with me to answer my questions.. The notes never made any sense to even the nurse assisting me.I over heard him being rude to one of the nurses when they asked him a question about my care plans.. I wish I never had to see him again.If it weren't for the fact that my insurance requires to go to North Memorial, I would go to another hospital.. North is one of the worst hospitals I have ever seen. I wish I could go esle-where.I have spoken to other friends who have been there as well, and they have had the same experience with this oh so pleasant Doctor, who thinks he is god.
