Dr. Vijay Harpal Seelall, MD

I sleep so much better and my snoring is gone.

I switched to Dr. Seelall after my last sleep specialist retired. She was very efficient in treating my sleep apnea but what impressed me was her knowledge on cpap machines, she was able to program my old machine based on my new information so now I have two working machines, one for home and one for travel.

She was able to figure out that my problem was restless legs syndrome and I have been to over 10 other doctors who could never figure this out. I am finally sleeping well

seriously saved my life, I walked into office feeling fine but she heard an irregular heart rate and sent me to ER, turn out I had recently had a heart attack and had no idea

I just met Dr. Seelall for the first time in the ICU as she is taking care of my wife. She spent so much time explaining in plain language what was going on with my wife that I finally feel the blanks have been filled in.

It is way too painful to describe my experience this doctor is responsible for my mother's death. I want to warn as many people as I can not to use her. Very very bad doctor

Unpleasant from doctor to receptionist staff. If I was a miserable as the girls working behind the desk I would definitely be looking for a new job. AND the DOCTOR.... I agree with a previous reviewer.... She talks down to you and if you ask a question, she makes you feel stupid. Found another great doctor and I will never be back to this office.

Rude! Condescending! Spoke to me like I was a three year old. Made Appointment with her cause she was the only local dr in her field that could get me in quick. Now I know why. If you are looking for a pulmonologist.... Keep looking. She is terrible. Would have given zero stars if site allowed. Staff was very nice though. Feel sorry for them having to work for her though.

When the doctor asked me who my previous doctor (specialist in same field) was and then asked me "why are you switching doctors?" and I replied that I was there (with this doctor) FOR A SECOND OPINION, she (this doctor) THREW ME OUT OF THE OFFICE and said I was ABUSIVE TO HER STAFF. I had someone with me who was a WITNESS to everything. And the doctor stood up and opened the door and said "Leave the building immediately!" UNPROFESSIONAL POS. WOW. I give one star because this program WILL NOT permit me to submit this review without clicking on the (amount of) stars/review). The real amount of starts is ZERO.

I am a formal smoker and a recent chest xray revealed a lung nodule so my primary physician wanted me to consult a lung doctor and suggested me to have it checked more closely. I came cross Dr seesall because I could not get any appointment in time with any other reputable pulmonary doctors. First impression is she is young and goes everything by the books she learned from medical school. Itâ??s fine with me as we have to give everyone an opportunity to start learning, right? So she did the routines and prescribed me with CT/PET scans. She also mentioned me that she also has someone from India called lungXpress that could do a cancer diagnosis by using blood test, and I was told it is completely free as it is still in its clinical trial. I OKAYed that and I did my CT/PET in her hospital and she did send people to my house to draw blood on me. As you can tell I was worried about my health and nervious about getting lung cancer as I have many years of smoking history, and I am only in… my last 30s. She had informed me that this could be a serious condition for me as if this is cancerous, it will not be an early stage as they has been spread to other part of the lung. She said it so affirmatively and she was almost sure about her diagnosis. Later after I did my scans and received my reports from he radiologist. It did reveal something that was not normal and I did some researches online (which I should have not weighted too much about the information I got from the internet) I almost confirmed a cancer for sure. I was waiting and waiting for her to get back to me after the CT/PET. Yet she delayed that I only got a call almost a week later to hear back from her. As one can tell how I lived through that week. I could not wait any longer so I turned myself into a very professional doctor in Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC. Luckily I met my thoracic surgeon there and he relieved my mind that if the nodules are cancerous, it will be a stage one. The two different location of finding does NOT confirm it is late stage. He said with so much confidence and he assured me that he can cure me with a surgery. To me, as a patient, at that time in my lowest point in life, there is nothing more encouraging than that and he had brought my life back. Anyhow, later I followed his instruction and did a biopsy procedure at MSKCC and found that the nodules are not cancer at all after the surgeon called me with result only two days later. There are so many knockoffs in any profession including the medical field. If you having minor issues with sleeping or such, then going to Dr seelall probably wont hurt you as much. But if you think you have a serious problem, I would not go to her or her kind alike for advice as she will probably read back to you about what she had learned from her medical school a couple of years ago and not able giving you the right diagnosis. And donâ??t blame her on that as she has not seen many patients enough to develop her expertise and give you the proper diagnosis. If you want to be her next little white mouse, then be my guest. I donâ??t think there is anyting more important than your own or your loved oneâ??s health. When she called me a week later after I did the test she ordered for me, she called me and wanted me to come to her office for a second visit. I told her I could not take any work time off to visit her and kindly asked her to speak to me about the result on the phone. She declined me on that and her reasoning was â?? I will not get reimbursed from your insurance company if I only speak to you on the phone, you need to come in for me to get paidâ?? in her original words. How ironic is that! If you are a doctor, your primary responsibily should be helping patients and encouraging them. However, in her mind, her number one priority is to make money on you. I confirmed my conclusion by finding out that she not only hung up my phone right away but refused to give me back my lungXpress result or answering my calls. Worst of all. I just received a letter from her Indian coalition saying that they will claim my insurance for the cost. I called them for the result and only to find out the word â??Indeterminateâ?? on the report. It looks like this doctor and her Indian coalition has some hidden secrets that they donâ??t want it to be exposed. Should her have told lungXpress and put it on the report after the fact so the new startup company and survive or making more profit? I donâ??t know. But at least they owe me an honest answer form my blood test with their own findings, if they have oneâ?¦ Anyway, I was lucky that I chose myself with a right doctor at the end and I have a happy ending. But at the same time I hope I could help more patients making the right choice of finding their best doctor. Stay away from the knockoffs..
