Dr. Aldea Bamboozled Me, Don't Go to his practice!..., Jan 28, 2012 DO THESE THINGS BEFORE YOU COMMIT TO SURGERY WITH DR. ALDEA: 1) Ask for the refund policy before you pay ANYTHING. You might not be provided the refund policy after you've paid the deposit. There are many outs for him not to return money if the surgery doesn't happen. 2) Don't be fooled by the good reviews out there. Some sites allow surgeons to only display the good reviews and not the negative ones. 3) Research to see if there are any lawsuits filed against him first. My experience with Dr. Aldea was NOT pleasant. He showed up 1 hr late for my surgery. Many of the nursing staff at St. Francis commented that he's frequently late and his surgeries always run over (which means you'll pay much more in the end!) On the OR table we both learned I had an irregular heartbeat. Dr. Aldea canceled the surgery but agreed to do it later if cardiac clearance was obtained. I got clearance which said that my condition was benign and to proceed with surgery as planned, but he never was satisfied, he found every excuse in the book not to do it. He dodged my calls for months! I wanted to get specifics from him on what he needed from the cardiologist. He kept having his patient coordinators say the same vague thing, "Dr. Aldea needs to know the surgery is safe for you." No cardiologist in their right mind will write "safe" in a letter. They will only say low-high risk. BTW 2 cardiologists wrote that I was low risk for the surgery and at no higher risk than a person who didn't have an irregular heartbeat. After many unreturned calls from Dr. Aldea, I got upset and asked for the truth and a refund if he didn't want to operate. He responded and said that I was ungrateful and here's your refund minus $750 deposit and he said that I didn't want the surgery. I responded that I did want the surgery but was tired of the run around and asked that he personally return a call so that we could clear up misunderstandings. His coordinator responded that he would not do the surgery until he got |

They treat people badly and make you wait for hours..., Jan 1, 2012 Dr.Alberto Aran makes his money from medicare recipients who are old and usually suffering from many illnesses and problems, including finding it difficult to get to the doctor on their own. He makes then makes us all wait for many hours before seeing us and this is very hard for me because I have leg pains. He does many,many eye surgeries and claims to be good at them, but who knows. HOw could someone who runs his office so terribly and treats his own patients so badly be a good doctor His staff just follows his orders and they offer no help in scheduling wisely or dealing with problems. Do not choose this doctor if you can find another one who does not punish you with long waits and short visits. |

lacking empathy and understanding, terrible bedside manner, rigid, will not think outside the box..., Nov 15, 2011 She is one of those doctors who feels her word is like the word of god and should not ever be questioned. But she does not take the time to delve into the facts and, thus, makes it impossible for her to make a well-informed decision. Quick to jump to (sometimes wildly inaccurate) conclusions and gets very invested in being right, so if you are a patient looking for a psychiatrist who works with you as a partner in your treatment and who respects your voice and input, I highly recommended continuing the search. This is a doctor who reinforced negative stereotypes of psychiatrists. I do not have any idea what her facilities and staff are like because I saw her as an inpatient. (The review form won't let me leave those pieces out though) |

Dr. James S Pratty at AMHA Medical Group - Review ..., Oct 25, 2011 Dr. Pratty is very good at what he does. He makes educated suggestions that are derived from years of experience. Since I started seeing Dr. Pratty, his directions in medication and action has helped me a lot. Everyone at his office was very friendly and informative. I am seen on time, and my appointments last the entire length of the scheduled time. Sometimes he gives too much direction, in a foreceful way, his intentions are of good nature, and he speaks from a very experienced career and extensive knowledge of psychiatric medicine. He has helped a close friend of mine with addiction, and his qualifications for being an addictionologist has proven its worth. I would recommend him to a friend. |

Dr. Stern is a great neurosurgeon in southeastern MA..., Oct 15, 2011 All I can say is - if you need a neurosurgeon, call Dr. Stern - there is no other doctor like him. I went to Dr. Stern for a second opinion after another local neurosurgeon told me that i needed surgery. Dr. Stern evaluated me and told me to first try physical therapy and that surgery was the last resort. He was so RIGHT. I did the physical therapy and my symptoms are almost totally gone. Thank you Dr. Stern! |
