Dr. Bapineedu was the responding doctor at Valley Hospital when my husband had gone to the emergency room with pain related to a hernia. It was an awful experience. Aside from the fact that he put 10-15 metal pins in my husband's abdomen to repair the hernia (when another doctor subsequently said that even DISSOLVING tacks were outdated), his bedside manner was terrible. My husband was made to go to the emergency room again and wait through the whole process to be omitted, and he had to wait around for a surgery time, at which I did not have more than a few minutes notice and I did not get to see him before his surgery. He did not come down to speak to me after the surgery and only talked to my husband after he was in recovery and therefore he did not remember what he had said. We were highly disappointed and would strongly recommend finding another doctor.
