I have never felt so dismissed by a provider before. He (Dr. Lal Tanwani) did not want to discuss with me my concerns because what he saw from my blood work.

A mistake was made on my Levothyroxine. I found out on my last appointment that the mistake caused an increase from 150 mcg to 225 mcg's. I did receive a call with the lab results 90 day's ago that said Dr. Tanwani was increasing the dosage! I was told by Dr. Tanwani that a mistake had been made in the office!

I have had this issue for 10 years. I have seen several different Dr and referrals. He was that first person other than my regular Dr to listen to me and explain what the next moves were. He scheduled me an appointment with a surgeon, to address 4 other issues that him and my cardiologist found.

My appointment was at 11:10. I was called back around 11:35. The doctor didn't come in the room until 12:25. No apologies given. He barely spoke to me. Worst doctor I have ever seen. No people skills, caring or compassion. This is my last time coming here. It was the only endocrinologist I could get an appointment with when my thyroid issues began. Laura from his office is terrific, trying to make up for Tanwani's shortcomings.

My experiences has been positive. A physician who listens to the client is essential to know how to treat each individual. Listening is as important as prescribing medication.

Endocrinologist never feels my throat to check my thyroid. Dr is rude and has a terrible bedside manner. He speaks low and muffled so that I cannot hear what he says, when he says something. Dr acts like he would rather be ANYWHERE else but in that office with patients. I am looking for a new provider. This doctor showed no concern at all that my thyroid is out of whack. It's all humdrum for him. This is my life and health. It matters to me.

Provider didn't listen to all my symptoms. Did not read my notes and seem confused of why I was even at the appointment. What is the point of a intake questionnaire if you are not gonna even read it?
