Dr. Craig Patterson, MD

I was suffering from Long Covid and was referred to a Pulmonologist by my primary care doctor, so I went to Piedmont for their Long Covid clinic. I was so debilitated from LC, having shortness of breath, chest pain, debilitating fatigue, Brain fog etc that I was unable to work.Dr Patterson had a nurse do a 6min walk test, then came to me saying nothing wrong with me, that it was all in my head. He then sent my PCP notes stating that I needed psychotherapy and had mental issues. His report devasted me, made me feel unheard, gaslit and invalidated in the most vulnerable time of my life. Fast forward 1.5y, I’m still battling Long Covid, had stent implant, various treatments with REAL long Covid experts that are helping me. Remembering Dr Patterson still brings me tears.While I understand many doctors didn’t understand LC, it’s a disgrace that Piedmont would have a “Long Covid clinic” with a man who didn’t have the slightest experience with LC and is gaslighting patients.

Dr Patterson took a lot of time to answer my questions and was not hurried. He is very good at explaining things. He is very energetic and intellectually confident when answering questions. I highly recommend him. The staff was also very personable and helpful. Overall a very good experience.

Dr. Patterson is an excellent physician. He carefully reviewed my diagnosis then patiently responded to my questions. He is thorough and individually cares for each patient as if it were his first appointment for the day. His staff is exceptional as well.

Dr Patterson did all scans & tests possible, put my mind at ease. My research was correct. I have the best expert for my lung problems, very thorough. Will aka Doug Hembree Midtown Atl GA 30309

Patient was in Piedmont Hospital and recieved the most pathetic care I’ve ever seen by a Dr. Very rude to Patient and family, a disgrace to his profession. He wouldn’t even acknowledge the patient when the patient offered to shake his hand. He ignored him and when asked why he simply left the room. Even the 2 nurses were appalled by his behavior. Dr. tried discharging patient who was in CCU 3 weeks pryor stating he would most likely never recover from the medically induced coma.
