Dr. Sandeep Sawhney, MD

If I could give -starts I would, 1 star is WAY TO HIGH for this dr. I had a 9mm, 6mm and a third smaller kidney stone... after the operation one stent came out (it had a string for me to pull out in 5 days, but no one told me that so as soon as I got out of surgery and went to the bathroom and whipped mysefbit came out a little). SO they decide to try to reinsert while I’m AWAKE by pushing it in with a catheter. Well that said it did work and the first time I owed i didn’t even wipe any it came out. So their next brilliant idea was to try to reinsert the stent by putting a wire in it and pushing it into the kidney—- all WHILE I WAS AWAKE. Then they scheduled the removal of the 2 other stones 18 days later??. They gave me pain pills for 10 days they say - it was 20 pain pills that I could take every 4 hours... it’s ashame Drs don’t know how to count. 20 pills would last 10 days if I took only two a day—- with a9mm kidney stone. When I went for check up with my gp- she said… infection was still full blown, the antibiotics dr sawheny gave me wasn’t working. Thank god for my GP, she changed the infection meds and was able to give me pain med... however after reading on it and calling dr sawhenys office they said by I cannot take that before surgery. They said take alleve or go to hospital. No compassion what soever, in fact the nurse was very rude and acted as if I was wrong for being in pain. I have been bed ridden since I got out of the hospital because of the kidney stone pain and all this dr and his office say is take alleve or go to hospital. I’ve already spent 3 days there and they didn’t fix me, why would I go back, so he can make more money off me and give me pain meds in the hospital. I am dreading Monday when I have the surgery, hopefully they will not do it while I’m awake, and hopefully they will give me pain meds to go home.... PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS DR BEFORE YOU GO TO HIM OR HIS OFFICE. I don’t wish this experience on Anyone. I’ll repost after surgery to see how fu**ed up they did it. I’d switch Drs now but don’t have time because I need this out now!

Does not listen to patients. He told me to live with my pain and basically ignored me.
