Some doctors really should not be doctors and I feel like Dr. Kalisetti falls into that category. She's probably fine if you're completely healthy and never need to see anyone other than for a yearly checkup. Completely apathetic and makes it clear that she can't be bothered actually becoming familiar with you and your needs. For example, I went to her about a shoulder issue, she took an x-ray and sent an email saying "Looks like tendinitis. Hope you feel better." A month later, I told her that the pain was worse and that it really needed help and her response was to become agitated and snap at me that it was my fault because I wouldn't "let" her treat it. Not sure how saying, "Looks like tendinitis. Hope you feel better" is an attempt to treat it.
Another example - she prescribed a medication to me and said that it might negatively impact my liver so she was going to order a blood test to check it once I started the medication. I started taking the medication, a few weeks later went for the blood test and when the results came back - she sent me an email saying that my liver results were elevated . . . nothing more. So I wrote back and asked if that was because of the medication and what it meant and she wrote back, "I don't know." :-| Seriously? SHE DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THAT SHE ORDERED THE TEST AS A WAY TO MONITOR WHETHER THE MEDICATION SHE PRESCRIBED WAS IMPACTING MY LIVER. Or . . . she didn't care. Either way . . . she should not be a doctor.
Anyway, I have several other examples (like when I had an accident and messed up my foot/ankle and she did nothing other than wrap it - no crutches, nothing - and when I went for a follow up (with another doctor because she wasn't available) they sent me to an ortho doc and he said that Kalisetti should have sent me to him at the beginning; etc, etc., etc.) but, long story short, that was the final straw and I told PAMF that I didn't want her as my primary anymore and now have a great PCP there. He's awesome. read more
