Dr. Vijaya Lakshmi Kuchipudi, MD

I have seen her a few times and when I had to she would not pay attention she had no idea what one of my issues was and this is a very common issue. she does not listen to what has worked for the patient. she laughed at me when I told her what I have been using to help control some back pains because it was not prescribed by a doctor it was an OTC med and told me it wouldn't work. she never really looks up from the computer to listen she shuffles papers the entire time you are in there again not paying attention to what is being talked about. The many sites that have her language listed has English and it is broken at best and her accent is so thick you cannot understand her half the time and she gets visually annoyed when you have to have her repeat herself so you catch what she is saying. she will not tell you what she thinks her diagnosis is and you leave there with no answers. I get doctors are to tell patients to stop smoking and limit drinking but with her it is overboard if you… tell her you have maybe a 6 pack in a month that is to much and it she will tell you none at all and smoking seems to be the reason for everything. if you can avoid this doctor I would highly suggest that.

Dr. Kutchipudi is inconsiderate, forgetfull of what medications she prescribed me. She watches the news and no matter what I come in for, she takes me off a medication depending on what celeberty as overdosed and without regards to my drug screens which indicates NO ABNORMALITIES. She misdiagnised me with minor condition, misread the x-ray and MRI and the end result was unbearable pain. After 6 months of unbearable pain I insisted on seeing a specialist and it took 3 months to get in so I went outside my network and was instantly seen, diagnosed the same day and scheduled surgery. She continued to refuse to give me pain medications. She doesnt listen when with a patience as she is fixated on how to type/document the day's visit as she filters the information she takes in. At one visit she took me off my anxiety medicine and insisted if, I wanted it that I go to her husbands sleep clinic as this is where she referred me. She is number one on my list as the worse doctors I have ever… encountered.
