Samantha Muppalla, MD

She won't listen to you unless she is finding a reason to do less work

If the clinic assigned you to her, ask for another one

She is straight forward and not a pill pusher. I trust she will not lie or beat around the bush when I ask a question or ask for an opinion.

Dr. Muppalla is a very professional, caring and compassionate person. Whatever your health issue may be , she will explain it and make sure you understand how it will be handled. I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Muppalla. When she left St Francis and went to Stormont Vail Hospital, I followed her. I could not imagine having any other doctor. I recommend her highly. I guarantee, you will be in the Best of Hands.

Very Rude.

Not very personable from what I had been accustomed to.

I went into an urgent care facility with my 11 year old daughter. She had recently had strep throat and her exact symptoms (nausea, sore throat, body aches) had returned. my regular doctors office was closed. I shared my concerns with the urgent care nurse. Without even seeing her Dr. Mupalla ordered a flu test which was negative. She did order a rapid strep test after examining her. She was said she was sure she didn't have strep after the rapid test came back negative. My daughter was in intense pain and tearful. She was very rude and spoke down to me. I told her she wont eat (which is VERY RARE) for her. The Dr. then told my daughter "you have to eat to get better" which my regular doctor said was untrue that as long as she was staying hydrated she was okay. I asked her if she was going to send it off to the lab to allow it to grow (which is what has happened every time we have had a negative result). She had no idea if a second swab was even used and had to check. it… was sent off to the lab and two days later I received a call confirming that my daughter did indeed have Strep throat. I will NEVER use this doctor again. On top of that a coworker of mine used her as well recently and misdiagnosed also. She told my friend she had a Staph infection and ordered a 2% cream. A few days later she was in ER with IV antibiotics. The ER doctor said there was no way that was a Staph infection and didn't even resemble one. I firmly believe Dr. Mupalla has no idea what she is doing.

This doctor has no bedside manner... but she did take the time needed with me. I also wonder if I am mistaking bad bedside manner to the fact that she says it like it is. I have been to drs that literally walk in the room, say what do you need, I tell them and they fax in scripts.This dr is not going to give you un-needed meds for sure. She is a great doctor for older patients I think.

She is extemely compasionate, takes time especially with older people like mom, ,explains things in details . very smart

I have seen this doctor 3-4 times and each time she has been rude and insulting. She laughs AT you and your concerns. A terrible bedside manner and she does not seem to have any compassion. I will not be going back there ever!!!! I can't see where anyone would want her as their health care provider.
