  Cold and uncaring. MAJOR complications after surgery that would have been avoided if he actually res..., May 7, 2012

Cold and uncaring. He refused to listen when told there was excruciating pain. There was MAJOR complications from the surgery which resulted in going to emergency with Bile leaked into entire abdomen and 77 days were spent in the hospital, 3 weeks of which on a ventilator. Doctor would not even look the family or patient in the eyes after that. There is more but I think i made my point.

  Feedback from experience with Dr. Uma Narayan!!!!!..., Mar 16, 2012

My 11 month old son was very sick for over a month. We were in and out of Dr. Uma Narayan's office several times each time being told he was fine, just ignore the cough. Well his condition continued to worsen. Runny nose, fever, pulling (working to breath), losing weight, coughing nonstop (sounded like a seal), lethargic, and very miserable. He was prescribed two medications that come to find out were not what he needed. Needless to say at the last visit, after 2 breathing treatments, he had to be rushed to the hospital (30 minutes away because others were full???). My baby spent 2 1/2 days in the hospital on oxygen, he tested positive for bronchiolitis with RSV, a simple test that took 15 minutes. She never called to check on him once, even after we were released. In addition, it takes at least +4 hours to get a call back after leaving a message at the office. The doctors at the hospital said had it been caught sooner he would not have been this bad.Good luck!!
  Review all records on his doctor, I am not the only victim...., Mar 1, 2012

Nazario has no bedside manners. I waited 12 wks. W/serious health issues expressed the urgency and got a cancellation call at 4:56pm the day before my apt. certainly, calling to cancel my appointment the day before had to b a mistake. I went at 8:30am on my appointment (9am). 10 minutes later after check in a clerk comes out to tell me that my appointment was canceled. I'd already changed meetings, took morning off work & I was in urgent need to see her, was she aware? Yes she was. Office Mngr.realized time was slotted I said I was not expecting her to have a diagnosis at first glance, but that she needed to hear my symptoms & I would come back some other time. He had no argument.30 minutes later came back she said no -re-schedule. Total lack of humanity. No even face to face-on a scheduled appointment paper won’t tell a diagnosis. Nurses search for records after the patient signs a release. I was glad to do the legwork and wasted 12 weeks zero regard to my health and to my time
  EXCEEDINGLY GIFTED, PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONABLE - ..., Dec 30, 2011

I have been a patient of Dr. Rutstein's for over a year and find him to be a GREAT doctor, exceedingly gifted in his field. He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable when it comes to managing complicated cases (i.e. multiple disorders, disorders in addition to other medical conditions). He is incredibly educated in regards to medications AND their side effects. He has no problems in answering any questions or addressing any concerns you may have. If a particular side effect is a concern for you (i.e. weight gain, drowsiness) he does his best to find alternatives. He is very personable, which is rare, as generally psychiatrists tend to be very clinical. He spends a good amount of time with you, never making you feel rushed. He listens, asks questions, and asks your thoughts on things before he gives you his take. In my experience, he is not just concerned about making an illness or situation manageable, but in truly improving a patient's quality of life. His staff is friendly and very helpful. You can definitely tell both Dr. Rutstein and his staff enjoy what they do. I happily recommend him to anyone looking.
