Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

UNC PULMONARY SPECIALTY
I saw this Physician in February 2021 at UNC Pulmonary specialty. I wouldn't recommender any body to go to him. He has lack of knowledge for his own specialty. I saw him for shortness of breath and palpitation, and my doctor said it could come from my lungs. It was the first time I saw him. During my first visit, he was an hour late. His nurse came in and told me that he had another appointment and he was running behind. First of all, If he knew that he had an appointment schedule with a patient, why would he schedule another appointment in front of it? He ordered PFT test before my appointment , so this appointment was to talk about the results. My results did not show that I have asthma however, he was trying to diagnose me with asthma and he prescribed me albuterol inhaler. I told him that I will not take the albuterol because I do not have asthma and he said well albuterol helps with shortness of breath and if I do not want to take it then why am I here to see him?.

MY VISIT BY THIS PHYSICIAN LASTED AT MOST, 5 MINUTES. HE ASKED HOW MY PREVIOUS SURGERY WENT ( UNRELATED TO MY LUNG CONDITION ). THEN HOW DO YOU FEEL? FOLLOWED BY QUICK CHIT-CHAT ABOUT MY CURRENT HEALTH. HE THEN RECOMMENDED I COULD START OXYGEN AT HOME. I DECLINED AND HE LEFT THE ROOM.
