It's also a red flag to me to hear that a doctor isn't interested or professional enough to hear feedback in order to improve.

Not only is Dr. Bhayani a highly skilled surgeon, but from my initial consultation to my post-op checkup I felt safe in his hands and cared for.

His warmth, attentive care and reassurance made an extremely stressful situation much easier. Dr. Bhayani combines superb surgical expertise with truly compassionate patient care. I am forever grateful for his dedication and changing my life for the better.

The actual medical procedure performed by Dr. Solomon was actually okay and has held up years later…read more(which is why I gave him 2 stars instead of one) but the reason for this 2 star review is for things that many other one and two star reviews cover. I was referred to Dr. Solomon a while back because I needed a hernia operation after an ultrasound confirmed that I had a hernia that needed to be repaired. My initial appointment with him went about as expected. He seemed a bit arrogant at first glance, and "all about the facts", but oddly devoid of compassion - which didn't mean much to me at the time, but I wish I had given heed to these warning signs at the very beginning! He examined me and said I believe you need to have your hernia operated on, and I agreed with him so we set up the surgery. It is also worth mentioning that I never saw him without medical students following him around, whether it was in his office or in the hospital for surgery - like he was holding court to show how important he is. My surgery was initially scheduled for 10:00 am and they ask you to come in 2 hours early to do paperwork and prep. The day before my surgery I got a call from his office. They said he had something clear off his schedule and asked if I was able to move my surgery 2 hours earlier at 8:00 am. I was fasting and knew that I would be getting hungry sooner than later so I was happy to get it over with earlier. The next day I came in at 6:00 am to get started. (Here is what other negative reviews have mentioned) I did my paperwork which went fast and they put me in a gown and took me to the pre-op area around 6:45 am...where I waited for hours because Dr. Solomon was nowhere to be found! They called him every hour and he didn't even pick up. Finally at 11:00 am he answered when the hospital called him and said he would be there as soon as he could. I was looking back at my paperwork and I checked in to the hospital at 6:00 am, and was given my pre-op antibiotics at 11:00 am when they actually talked to him and he confirmed that he was on his way in. I proceeded to wait another 3 hours until 2:00 pm when he finally strolled in, with a student by his side and when I asked why he was so late he arrogantly smirked and simply said he wasn't able to make it. Instead of having me come in 2 hours early, I wish they would have called and said he wouldn't be able to do my surgery until 2:00 pm. It was almost as if he purposely made me suffer longer, and then he was extremely smug about it. So from the time I got to the hospital till the time Dr. Solomon got there to do the surgery was 8 HOURS!!!!! - Absolutely inexcusable!! Normally in a situation like this I would have blown a gasket and raised a huge stink, but because it was just before my surgery, I didn't want to upset him or make him angry before he was about to do a major operation on me so I let it go. But I need to emphasize how hungry I was by this time, having not eaten anything since 6:00 pm the night before - not to mention having been in a hospital gown on an uncomfortable pre-op bed in a brightly lit area with other people for 8 hours. I have had many friends who had hernia surgery and every single one of them has emphasized how much pain they were in after the surgery and truly needed strong pain meds to get them through the first few days (which is understood to be a normal part of this particular surgery). After the surgery, Dr. Solomon told me and my girlfriend that he would not be giving me pain medication but that I should alternate taking 4 Tylenols and in 4 hours take 4 Ibuprofens, and that would be enough for the pain - so I did that for a couple of rounds until I woke up in the middle of the night writhing in pain and couldn't stand it, so I called the emergency on-call number and spoke to a doctor who said he would get me some pain medication. A few minutes later Dr. Solomon called me and tried to gaslight me saying that I shouldn't be in that much pain, but that he would send in a prescription for Tylenol 3 - which turns out is not much stronger that 4 Tylenols, at least for me. When I asked for something stronger he mentioned that he didn't do stronger things due to the addiction factor - At least give me a few days worth to get me through this incredible pain that you know I'm having doctor! - and understandably so with this particular operation!! It felt like he honestly wanted me to be in pain!! Again, it seems that Dr. Solomon revels in causing more pain to his patients than comforting and healing them! In conclusion, this was one of the worst medical experiences I've ever had. I can't remember being in more pain in my life. And the whole incident of being left waiting for 8 hours is just inexcusable! Especially since he had me come in 2 hours earlier. I have never had a doctor gaslight me into backing off and stay in pain. WTF!!!?? I would not wish this experience on my worst enemy! Do yourself a favor and dodge this bullet!!

Dr. Arvan didn't review any of the paperwork I gave her which included recent lab reports, diagnosis and treatment plans, etc. She didn't ask me any questions about my health or how I was feeling. She was more worried about the natural supplements I was taking to treat SIBO not being FDA approved. I simply needed to get a physical exam done to qualify for a discount on my medical insurance but she refused to treat me because I'm seeing an ND as well. Are you kidding me? I'm taking things like calcium, multi vitamin, vitamin D, K, C. I'm also on HRT but she didn't like that either. How would she have any idea on my hormone levels without even looking at my lab results. What a waste of time. Seems she doesn't like her patients seeing anyone but MDs. However, I don't need any more prescription pills. All I needed was a simple physical exam. Unbelievable!
