Sadly he bullied my partner during her visit. He did not listen to her…read more Without any diagnostic information, he attacked her regarding insomnia. He then asked bizarre questions, like if she had agraphobia. He asked twice why she had insomnia, and then said it was all in her head. This was in contradiction to previous expert diagnosis or records. She had been through two Sleep Apnea and CBT training, and ignored that as well. She was distraught, upset, and clearly bullied. She is a responsible scientist that takes responsibility for her health, including a healthy diet and daily exercise. Not recommended. He's a Bully.

Dr. Patel is also very accessible to patients. We have been very pleased and we generally aren't too thrilled with physicians in the Fairfield/Vacaville area. He's an excellent physician!!

Dr Shalaby is the best. My mother was suffering with pneumonia, followed by bronchitis. She seemed…read moreto have labored breathing for 2 months with no end in sight. Dr Shalaby saw her as an emergency patient and he was kind, sincere, and he listened. Dr. Shalaby prescribed the proper medication and now she is well. He did all of that in 20 minutes or less and with a smile. If you or your family member is in need of a knowledgeable, kind and sincere pulmonologist I highly recommend Dr. Shalaby in Pittsburg or Brentwood locations. (Oops I might've misspelled his first name, but I think you can find him still)

I too have recently experience:…read more 1. What Amy stated in her review, "It's been nearly impossible to get in touch with anyone there. They don't answer the phone, and even though some extensions allow you to leave a message, they never call back. This lack of communication is incredibly frustrating and unacceptable for a medical practice." The Diablo Pulmonary Medical Group staff does not even reply to MyChart messages. 2. What Felipe P. stated in their review, "Just got a bill from January, and nobody in billing answers. Called 3 times, left 3 messages and no response." When you call the office there is an option for Billing, which is use less, always received a recording to leave a message. This option and personnel need to be removed because they NEVER return a call. I even called at least three times and selected the option to schedule an appointment for I have had better luck some one answering. I asked the person who answered if the billing person was in (Sarah?), and of course she replied "No, but I can take a message." (Do not know what she did with the message for I never receive a call back.) I informed her I have left several messages via the Billing option and have never received a call back. What a plush job Sarah has.

His location is convenient and his staff cordial when you meet them in person. However, trying to reach his office for an appointment can be quite a challenge. The phone prompts are endless and usually no one answers and you have to leave a message. " To state "Please listen because our numbers have changed" is trite and useless". Every doctor's and business'es phone prompt says the same thing. Just get on with what the numbers represent. It is all very frustrating;to my brother in law because his MS. does not permit him to use a computer. Therefore the MUIR website is not useful. He must rely on the telephone because he also has impaired vision and cannot read his mail. . However, telephone communication issues are not just Dr. Hadley's. It's the same with all of our local doctors. Phone prompts and staff communications are generally very time consuming and frustrating. When I was a young boy My mother would call and my doctor would come to my house to treat me the same day or evening. He drove a Chevrolet or maybe a Buick. Now I cannot reach my doctor and he drives a Mercedes Benz and is shielded from communication through his office staff and billing contractors.
