Dr. Tarun Chugh

Dr. Chugh’s entire approach was to dismiss any complexity related to my condition that he was unable to address, as “focusing too much” on my condition. This is a reliable and disturbing red flag for any doctor. He asked very few questions and displayed no curiosity as to the history or specifics of my condition. When pressed about specific questions relevant to my condition and the safety of needed tests, he simply stating "it should be OK." When asked about further specifics not considered in that response, he became dismissive, giving evasive answers. In short, the intellectual and professional deficiencies of Chugh were both obvious and egregious. I have discussed the same issues with GPs and doctors from unrelated specialties that had a better understanding of nephrology than Chugh. That fact that he will be billing me for what amounted to a complete waist of my time, is simply an insult.
