    Vatsala Sastry caused my elderly mother's heart failure and permanent disability by dosing her with…read morea cocktail of last-resort antibiotics that she didn't even need. It's all about the insurance billing - some of these antibiotics are $500 each, and my mom was given three at a time. Sastry said my mom needed "5 or 6 weeks" of daily infusions; on day 10 she was rushed to ER with heart failure. Sastry gave her Levaquin, which has a black box warning that it can cause heart failure in patients with a-fib. My mom has a-fib, and it's noted throughout her medical records. Look up Sastry on the Florida Department of Health website and you'll see she has 3 deaths on her hands, plus permanent and temporary injuries. These are public records. Go to: apps.fldfs.com/PLCR/Search/MPLClaim.aspx, then input her name in the fields: Insured (Doctor's/Physician's) Last Name/First Name. Her horrendous online reviews reflect the same pattern of behavior, but unfortunately we learned many things too late. I believe Sastry used her "staff privileges" at Oak Hill Hospital (where she was assigned to my mother) to funnel patients to her filthy (literally) Suncoast Infusion Center upon their discharge. The hospital record clearly shows my mother did not have an infection, but Sastry blatantly lied in her clinic records, stating my mom had a bone infection. I reported all this to the CEO of Oak Hill Hospital, Mikey Smith, yet Sastry still has staff privileges. Her Suncoast Infusion Center appears to be out of business, but that's likely due to Covid, versus her reputation. I reported Sastry to the Florida Department of Health, but if three deaths and falsifying medical records didn't stop her, I don't have much hope that my mother's case will impact her career. I can only hope my review saves even one person from the life that my mother is now living.

    this is absolutely the worst doctor known to mankind i had a bone infection in my foot in october…read more2024, this lady would never show me my blood work when i asked she kept giving me different medicine until april of 2025 nothing ever worked she would literally see you for 5 mins and leave out the room no updates on my foot no updates on if i was getting better or anything just new medicines every friday.. then once my insurance expired..they stopped calling me to ser appointments lol fake uncaring doctor i had to pull my own pick line out of my arm because she wanted to keep it in me for 7;months the longer its in the more money she get.. most uncaring doctor i ever met no explanation for anything if you want to live do not see dr santstry because she will be the cause of your elderly loved ones death everybody in that office is slow and all they care about is money dr. santstry is a big scam

FOR ALMOST 3 years YOU DID NOT KNOW MY DAUGHTER HAD AUTISM! After prescribing medications and after I have given you every single piece of paper regard ing my daughters health since I moved here in 2023 due to Hurricane Ian. I gave you all my physical paperwork to copy from day one. on top of that the doctor is slow and needs to retire. he preaches misogyny "the problem today is woman don't crochet" sir what does that have to do with anything. and then rambles about God. (which great good for you but this does not belong in the appointment especially when the wait times are about an hr. I write this as I am waiting 45 minutes to get a piece of paper signed. in addition my daughters school has been trying to contact them for months regarding a form for evaluation for EIp. we will have to cancel without this. again hindering my daughter from getting the help she needs. they lied told the school they did in fact fsx the form over. I am sitting in the office waiting with the form in my hand unsigned by the pediatrician. on top of allll that their phone line does not work and goes straight to full voicemail.

    If I could give them 0 stars I would 1000x over again. Do not bring your children here if you ever…read moreplan on taking them else were because you will never get the records. The staff is unprofessional, when you call, they yell to each other if they can't answer the question instead of putting you on hold or just covering the phone. This is by far the worst doctor's office I have ever experienced.
