Bad inguinal hernia repair. Trust your instincts and go somewhere else. Like a vet...., Feb 1, 2012 He has never made a mistake in his life. But I have had three more surgeries trying to fix what he did to me. I will never get those years of my life back. Go somewhere else. I kept going back, thinking he was trying to help me. He was just trying to prevent a lawsuit and tell me it was in my head. |

Awful Dr, No Bedside Manner, no compassion, RUDE!!!..., Nov 15, 2011 Ive been Diabetic for 25yrs.I got ketones w/a reading of 849.Tried to get an emergency appt.He couldnt see me for 2wks!I ended up in a hosp.When he came to see me he treated me like a kid, didnt listen to me or my ?s.I thought it was insulin resistance W/o checking my meds or pump he said NO.I asked if it was allergies like a fever/cold causing insulin to not work properly, he said hed NEVER heard of that & told me to stop trying to come up w/ excuses.He asked why I hadnt come back to him sooner & it was b/c HE wanted me to go to other Drs before returning & it took time to do so.He asked how I had tried to get the B.S down & told me that once the B.S got 400+ that I shouldve taken a syringe, pulled up EXTRA insulin & injected it.I said a past Dr told me to do that but only w/a sliding scale & w/ Regular insulin not Novolog, that Id overdose.He showed NO BEDSIDE MANNER.I was in TEARS.THEN he sent a certified letter 2 days later dismissing me from his care w/o a reason!DO NOT GO TO HIM! |

Never expected this from a Medical Professional......., Sep 22, 2011 TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL ALL THE WAY AROUND I was recommended by coworkers to go to this Doctor since my previous Doctor retired.Upon walking in to the office all looks professional, but when I met with him everything changed. He had a attitude of a "pompas ass". I explained to him I was looking for a new primary care physician because mine retired.Dr Alonso asked me who my former physican name was and he replied "Script Writer". He also stated that."I better not be DR. shopping in order to get scripts". I explained to him I am a NYC Paramedic with 10years on the job, and never needed a script. He looked at me and laughed.At that point I was insulted and should have walked out but I decided to give him the benefit and let him proceed with the blood work-up. As he was drawing blood I noticed he wasn't wearing gloves which is a big "no no" in the health care field and the topper was he returned the Vacutainer holder along with the tourniquet to the draw for use again on another patient.I questioned him on it because we are taught never to re use any supplies on a patient and I explained it to him He said with a smile"What did you say you do for a living and I stated a Paramedic". His insulting reply was "You guys in NYC may waste money and throw out supplies but not in my office, I discard them when I deem necessary.You are only a Paramedic with a crash course in medicine but I went to medical School and made doctor, Who are you to judge me?Never in my life have I ever been insulted by someone in the Medical field and will never put my foot back in his office. I certainally advise caution in going to this mans practice. |

Worst Place I Have Ever Visited, I will Never Go Back..., Aug 23, 2011 The doctor does not apologize if she makes you wait, a common thing for doctors to do. However, if you are fifteen minutes late, she won't see you and makes you get a new appointment. The staff is also impolite. |
