    Dr Farhana Quasem I…read morevisited this office as a new patient after reading one negative review, but I believe in giving all physicians an opportunity when it comes to patient care. During my visit, the doctor reviewed MyChart and asked if I wanted to receive the flu shot. I informed her that I do not take the flu shot. She then explained the health risks to others, which I understand is part of her responsibility. However, if I make an informed decision to refuse any vaccine, that decision should be respected. Providing education is important, but respecting a patient's values and choices is equally important. No patient should feel pressured or bullied into making medical decisions they are not comfortable with. I also had lab work done at the office. Unfortunately, the doctor never contacted me to review my lab results. I was able to access and understand the results on my own. In December, I contacted the office to inform them that I had not received a call regarding my labs--whether normal or abnormal--but there was still no follow-up. I realized that this physician does not fit my needs as a primary care provider. I canceled my appointment in December, yet I am still receiving notifications about an appointment that was already canceled, which is confusing. It doesn't make sense to continue seeing a primary care physician who does not meet your needs. Unfortunately, I cannot give this doctor a five-star rating. I am giving one star due to lack of follow-up, communication, and feeling unheard as a patient. I do wish her the best and hope this review encourages better follow-up with patients--especially when it comes to lab results--and greater respect for patients and their decisions

    This office is very unprofessional and rude. They make appointments and have you waiting long…read moreperiods of time before going to the back to then wait again for the Dr. They bill you for services that were never rendered and argue back and forth. They DO NOT return calls or follow up with patients as there is no monetary gain there. I will not recommend this office to anyone seeing care. They are not worthy of any stars.

    My husband and I have been going to Rockdale Internal Medicine for years. We have moved out of the…read morearea and needed to have our medical records transferred. After faxing the requested forms, I was told they did not receive them. I then drove for over an hour to deliver the forms personally to the front desk on Friday, Jan 27, 2023. It is now Feb 1st, I finally got someone to answer the phone so that I could find out why the records have not been transferred. After researching they determined they did not have the forms that I personally handed to them. Did they just throw them away? These forms have our SS # on them which is a security risk. Very dissappointed and I would not recommend this office to anyone. Some good doctors but very poor management by Peidmont.

    I have been going to Internal Medicine Associates of Rockdale for approximately 2.5 years…read more Recently during my last appointment they asked me to sign the notice of privacy practices which gives the doctors consent to release my medical information to anyone they choose to. After reading over their practices, they note the ways they may or may not use your medical information. In their notice, it indicates that "you have the right to request that we restrict how we use protected health information about you and your treatment...." and they are not required to agree to this request but if reasonable, they would honor this agreement. I have always requested to sign this form on a limited basis asking that doctors only share my information with my insurance carrier and any governmental agency if required by law. To date, all of the doctors have honored my request except Internal Medicine Associates of Rockdale. They would not see me unless I signed this form giving them blanket authorization to release my medical information. Needless to say, I did not sign the form as I did not have any warm and fuzzy feeling about this office anyway so I requested my medical records. They told me it would take a week to prepare the records and asked if I wanted them mailed or if I wanted to pick them up. I told them I did not want my medical records mailed; again, I did not want my medical records in the hands of a stranger (the post office.) I asked them to call me and I would pick them up. With no regard for my request, they mailed the medical records anyway. Just to note some additional reasons why I am in search of a new doctor: What medical office in this day and age do not give you a courtesy call to advise you of your appointment. I was scheduled an appointment almost one month out as the doctor was booked and vacationing this particular month. I thought that the appointment was on a Thursday but it was really on a Tuesday. Needless to say, I missed the appointment. I will give the office credit, they did not charge me for a missed appointment but I was disappointed that they would not even provide a courtesy call, especially when the appointment was scheduled one month earlier. I scheduled a 2nd appointment and again no courtesy call. This just isn't a courtesy that is extended to their patients. When I go to the office, there is always a long wait which I can never quite understand as the lobby is usually empty. Finally, I do not find the staff to be very friendly or accommodating. They don't even greet you when you walk in the door! With this being said, there are plenty of doctors who would treat me as a valued patient with dignity and respect and I am off to find one!
