I went in November 2014 for my initial appointment. Waited 45 min in the waiting room. Talk to her his assistant for 15 min regarding my health. Dr. Maheshwari came in touched my neck for 30 seconds informs me I need an ultrasound on my neck. Tells me not to worry, that only 3% are cancerous and then leaves the room. Went for ultrasound the next week (in his office). To this day, June 16, 2015, I still do not know my results. I have called numerous times, to no avail. Finally received a bill from office last month for over $200, with a sticker telling me that I cannot make an appointment until it's paid. Like I would.

I have had one appointment with Dr. Maheshwari - I felt like rushed when trying to answer the questions and was interrupted several times in my ansers. He prescribed Metformin and also requested I have a thyroid ultrasound done and bloodwork. I received a call regarding my bloodwork test results from the nurse practitioner. I'm still waiting to hear back on my thyroid ultrasound results. I called a week after the ultrsound and was told the doctor would call me back. I have called each week and have explained I have called numerous times looking for these results and have been told each time the doctor will call me back. I don't understand what the problem is. If the results are negative, just tell me. If you're waiting to discuss at my 2month appointment - just tell me that. I have also become nauseous on the medication which the doctor said would happen and to call the office and I have, which again, no return phone call. I have since stopped taking the medication. I'm about ready to cancel my 2month appointment as well and find a new doctor. I cannot rate the doctor's knowledge appropriately at this time because I don't feel like I have received complete care.

He is very knowleageble. I got in within 2 weeks. He has late and early hours to accomodate those who do work during the day. Staff was very nice and pleasant. He spent the time to listen and answer all of my questions. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family.

Just because a doctor shakes your hand and pretends to listen does not mean he is a good doctor. He spends 5 minutes with me every time and bills my insurance company $440. He has a wonderful bed side manor, but I think a doctor should have more than that. I always felt rushed in and out. I have progressively gained weight over the years I had been with him and he never really seemed to care. He never did a routine glucose tolerance test 6 weeks after I gave birth, when I had gestational diabetes. I am sick of these doctors who just prescribe drugs without trying to figure out the root of the problem. Some of the staff was very nice.

Extremely knowledgeable and interested in his pateints - I did not feel rushed and he spent more than enough time with me. One of the few doctors I have had in over 35 years that did not get angry with my questions or because I wasn't taking perfect care of myself. He has a very good understanding of what it is like trying to deal with diabetes and the struggle that many of us go through. He's a very good guy!means to
