Patients also share

The reviews contain very few criticisms, reflecting an overwhelmingly positive patient base. One reviewer noted feeling dismissed when Dr. Bhat attributed back and shoulder pain to posture without asking further questions. Another mentioned that concerns raised during a visit were not met with specific advice. One patient noted a preference for more active involvement in diagnosing their own health issues. A separate reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with changes to the patient portal that limited their ability to initiate communication with Dr. Bhat. These represent isolated concerns rather than recurring themes.
