Dr. Thirupathi K Reddy, MD

I have been reluctant to return to this doctor, even though he implanted my pacemaker. It was done a day late because of poor preparation. I needed an emergency room two days later because the ICD was not calibrated correctly. On my implant followup visit, he never looked at the wound or even lifted a stethoscope. He was in a hurry because he was two hours late, so he wanted to get to the next customer.

Dr Reddy was extremely helpful. I've been having issues with my heart and he was able to help me drastically. Highly recommended.

He has the worst bedside manner I have ever experienced. He would not allow me to ask questions, instead, just kept telling me to "Listen, Listen"! I was making notes as he was explaining things because I need to refer to them later and think about what I was told, and he actually told me, "STOP taking notes"! I explained to him why I was taking notes and he told me again to stop, and ORDERED me to put my pen down. I have never before been treated with such disrespect by a medical professional in my life, and I would never see him again nor refer anyone else to him. Sutter Health has such wonderful, caring, intelligent doctors on their staff, I really don't understand why they keep him.

how can you trust a doc who refuse or ignore your heart beat rate at 35? and who refuse to do needed checkup for you because of the hassle of insurance policy mandated peer review? I wish I can give 0 star but the page does not allow me to do so.

I will never go to this doctor and I strongly do not suggest him.
