Dr. Venugopal Naidu Gadipudi, MD

Do not see this doctor. He kicked my family member out who was having a psychotic episode due to his refusal to prescribe his usual seizure medication. I had to threaten him with a lawsuit in order to get the needed medications. He does no neuro exam at all on other visits.

Incompetent! Doesn’t test. Argumentative. False accusations. Try’s to ‘push’ meds you don’t need to make money. Loses your records. Discusses other patient information where it can be heard. Messes up scripts with pharmacy. Accused me of being addicted to meds, but I hadn’t seen him in 14 months. He confused me with another patient. Doesn’t read patient file before coming in room. Long waits.

This guy is the worst doctor ever. Do not see him. Recently I had symptoms of a mini stroke and he ignored my concerns. Then he began talking not about me, but about his elderly patients. He also told me he was writing my prescriptions out the same way my previous neurologist had written them, but he wrote them out for something different. He also told me that I had a different insurance than what I have. I have had the same insurance for more than a decade. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT see this idiot.

He does not have a clue of what he is doing. I was referred to him by VA. He told me Men cannot get migraines, didn't even do any test, even though I saw a Neurologist who did a CT scan and other test and determine that I had migraines. He was rude, comparing himself to me and saying he's in better shape that me. Telling me I need to exercise and need to stop taking my depression and anxiety medication without knowing my mental health condition. STAY AWAY FROM THIS QUACK

this "doctor" refused to listen to my complaints and problems, he calls me a liar and said "it is impossible for my symptoms to not be improving" he wrote in my chart my symptoms had a 30 % improvement when that is a lie. there is no improvement. everytime I say anything about my symptoms he shows me a filthy pamphlet that looks like it has been colored on and scribbled all over by angry kindergarteners. he will only refer to this one pamphlet and will refuse to acknowledge any new test results from credible medical sources.

It's a shame that the wait time is so ridiculous because most of the people there are caring and nice. Both times I had to take my son there (not by choice, thanks Tricare) we waited over an hour! There is no excuse for that.

He told me he doesn't deal with the nerve pain I have in my lower leg, not with the muscle spasms nor muscle twitching, only with the dizziness. Well, I thought he is a Neurologist. So, he gave me a prescription for 2 medications and told me at the same time that he can NOT help me. He asked for some paperwork to be send to him to get authorization for further testing and at the same time he told me he can't do anything for me. So, what is it? I told him that the PT exercises are helping when he interrupted me by saying that PT does NOT work. I have prove that it works, but I question if his drugs will help. The office is very dirty, in the rest room there was a big pile of used paper towels.

I was referred to this doctor by my PA, and I have to admit I was uneasy. Walking in, the front was very nice and personable. Wait time was normal, and Dr Gadipudi was very informative and gave me the help I needed.

I was referred to this Doctor by the VA, overall speaking and setting up a follow up appointment with the Staff was pleasant. The wait time was was a bit of a disappointment, my appointment time was at 0845, I was taken back to the room 0855 and the Doctor came to the room at around 0920. As to diagnosis other than being told that I do have nerve damage and being prescribed more medication that I have to take, the Doctor could not accurately tell me what is wrong until he does a Nerve Conduction Test, (which is why I was sent to him in the first place by the VA) and now have to wait another month before I can have that test. Beside manner was pretty good, he actually listened to my questions and gave me some advice as to what I need to change pertaining to diet with the medication he prescribed to me, as well as giving me some information to ask my Primary Care Provider at the VA. As to follow up, I have yet to have a second appointment with this Doctor.

I was referred to this Dr. in Jan 2014 for a EEG. He told me to follow up with my primary Dr. but that he would tell me, which he showed me on the print out from the text that my left leg showed a sufficient weakness over the right. Let me add that I had been experiencing numbness in my legs from back pain for over 3 months to the point that I had called cause my legs would just give out with no warning. He proceeds to tell me he's getting ready to go on vacation to "back home" and wouldn't be back for a month and I could follow up with him. As we walk out the room, lights were off and his staff was gone. I questioned where everyone was, my appt was at 4:15. He replied you were my last patient, the test takes too long. They just go home. My follow up came 4 months later, appt. was the middle of the day, he came in the room like a whirlwind. Expressing he was behind today. He opens the folder and said, " oh you already had MRI done" u need to follow up with that dr then. I tried to tell… him that my legs were getting worse, his reply was, " You need to loose weight and your spine won't be pressing on the nerves". Stood up and said, " When God made the human he only allowed for 150lbs to be supported for the spine, anything else is too much pressure." He hands me my paper and walks out. I walk out of the room and he's standing in the hall way with his hand to his head like he was confused. Again, he repeats, I'm running behind" as I walked past him. Needless to say, I was not impressed with this Dr. He does not listen to his patients, he talks over them. He himself is over weight and should know how hard it is to loose weight, but to tell someone to loose it when they are expressing how much pain their legs hurt and how they will give out while walking... His response was use a pool. I just wasn't impressed with him and personally wouldn't refer anyone to him. Bed side manners are important.
