This Doctor is a disgrace to the health care system in Canada and Calgary. She was very rude and racist using the term 'you people'. `She yelled at my sister during labour even while her shift ended, she came back to keep stalking her and traumatized her. She caused her to cease labour briefly and have a spiked blood pressure causing her to be high risk delivery. She has zero bedside manners and never apologized for her behaviour even when she discovered that she had the wrong information. I was disappointed that FMC hired such a terrible doctor. She even yelled at her junior doctor on that day while her voice was a 100, the whole ward could hear her. I will never forget this bad experience. Thankfully another doctor delivered by nephew safely and kindly, but my sister is forever traumatized . She should be retrained and should not be around vulnerable persons.

I am very surprised to see good reviews with the way myself and hubby were treated. Thankfully myself and baby are here today but it’s definitely not because of her, her colleagues had to save my babies life because she simply isn’t a good doctor and doesn’t care. Very much her way which is not what you want with YOUR personal delivery plan. I found her to be rude, dismissive, disrespectful and a complete bully. If this saves one women from seeing her and going through pain and heartache we will then it is worth. Compassion and listening goes a long way Dr. M.

Do NOT see if you are medically complex. She almost killed me and my baby by refusing to listen and do a ultrasound. Another doc did and my babe had to be delivered immediately. Then after my c section I threw a blood clot to my Lung. Despite nurses, myself and my hubby saying something is wrong she didn’t listen. As soon as next doc came a code was called. Then next day she came to my bedside and said “I don’t understand how everything happens to you” and walked away. Extremely unprofessional doesn’t listen to these women who KNOW their own body. Truly sad to see this type of doctor out there dealing with women in such a vulnerable state, while carrying a little life inside them.

I have been struggling since I was 14 years old; I saw another gynecologist a number of years ago who essentially dismissed my claims. Within one visit with Dr Mahalingham she had a diagnosis for me, and a procedure booked within 2 weeks in the OR. She is intelligent, kind, caring and attentive. I would recommend her to anybody looking for a wonderful gynecologist.

She was very rude. Hard to communicate with. I even asked for 10 sec to rephrase what she got wrong she said ok and once I opened my mouth she stopped me and started talking and blaming and waiving her hand at me..a thing a never expected from a medical professional...it was un human resource especially that I was going into depression postpartum and she knew I am going through domestic violence and have no body to support at all..how is she expecting vulnerable people to speak out to her opening up their pain and disclosing their weakness while she is using this attitude with her patients. I totally don't recommend her to anybody who really in need for help.
I have never seen such an attitude before in a physician.

One of the best Doctors I have ever seen. She is intelligent and kind. I felt understood and safe in her care. Eased this first time mom’s fears throughout the entire pregnancy. Wish she got to deliver my twins.
