If you want a doctor that doesn't explain anything and is rude and full of himself this is your guy! I'm surprised park west keeps him employed.

My daughter passed out 6 times today. He told her she was going to have to live like this so she has to get use to it. There is nothing we can do for you. She is 25 years old.

Very through and looked at things from a different perspective for an accurate diagnosis.

90% of the Stat Care Doctors at Parkwest Hospital are the worse doctors to ever get Medical License. I am being so to think Stat Care does not care about what type of doctors they hire. This Dr refuses to talk to family members and will violate courts orders just like the nurses and Social workers at Parkwest Hospital. This dr does not need to practice medicine at all

If you are seeking an extremely rude and condescending doctor, look no more! He was aloof and has absolutely no answers. His bedside manner is nonexistent and has the demeanor of the patient being a mere number. A one star review is being generous. This was his third visit to my mother’s room and he has been a consistent disappointment. I’ve experienced a more professional attitude from a pizza delivery guy.

Dr. Oberlin's care of my husband was all we could have hoped for. He discovered the problem quickly and prescribed a successful treatment. Couldn't be happier.
