0/10. Dr. Mendel's sloppy medical practice set me back over 2 years worth of training progress...., Apr 10, 2012 I injured my shoulder in 2010 while training with a barbell. This is the doctor I ended up going with while looking for a sports medicine doctor who specializes in shoulders. After waiting 3 months for my appointment, and 45 minutes waiting at their office for my appointment, I got maybe 5 minutes of time with the doctor. He ignored me completely when I tried explaining the type of pain I'm going through, and when the injury occurred. He injected my shoulder with cortizone, and told me it was just inflammation. In 2012, my shoulder is getting worse, to the point where I can't ignore the pain at all. I schedule an appointment with a different doctor and the University of Iowa, and on the first appointment, they schedule an arthrogram and MRI. The MRI confirmed that I have a tear in my labrum. If Dr. Mendel would have listened to me, this would have been dealt in 2010, and I would be able to continue training. But now I need surgery, and recovery looked like it'll take between 6-12 months. I can't train during that time. All this because Dr. Mendel refused to give quality healthcare (but still charge a premium healthcare price). My only regret is that this review will give Dr. Mendel 1 star, when it's currently at 0. |

Horrible doctorand dont waste your time or money....., Mar 22, 2012 Over an hour wait to get under a 5 minute visit. could not speak as I kept getting cut off. refused to listen, refill meds and did not perform the physical. I am outraged that this is what they charge for and dont follow thru. then I am told make another appointment if I want to talk and I can come back in a month or so. There is nothing good to say about this doctor |

This is the right place to be if you want to get pregnant..., Mar 12, 2012 This doctor really seemed to know what was going on and I believe will help me get pregnant. Having him work with me has decreased my stress about not getting pregnant immeasurably. I just feel well cared for. It is hard to wait and see how (when) thing work out, but I know I am in the best place to be. |

Dr. Duggal and Staff at Liberty Bay Internal Medicine are highly recommended..., Jan 17, 2012 I have been going to Dr. Duggal for over three years. He has become my primary care physician although I first started seeing him to help manage my degenenerative disk disease along with numerous other age-related difficulties. Dr. Duggal's qualifications in multiple areas of expertise effectively make him several doctors in one, including but not limited to diabetes, hypertension, lipids and pain mangement. Although Dr. Duggal is an expert in pharmacology he also has Dr. Nicholas Wyatt, Pharm D working with him as well. The staff has all been wonderful in helping me with the scheduling of appointments and everything I've needed help with. I highly recommend Liberty Bay Internal Medicine with Dr. Duggal and staff. |

No help or care, no followup and a big, unexpected bill. ..., Nov 26, 2011 I was very unhappy with my visit to Dr. Lin. I had a painful ear problem that had been going on for a month, and all she did was look in my ear and say she didn't find anything. No inquires about how long I've had the problem and attempt to investigate the issue. She eventually did a very small procedures that she said might help or might not, and then charged the procedure as ambulatory surgery so that I would have to pay for half the cost instead just an office visit which is covered. Despite the fact that I left in pain, she never followed-up and never even attempted to help figure out what is wrong with me. I'm still in pain. |
