Dr. Ralph Falbo III, MD

I made a very difficult decision to go to the ER with prolonged heart palpitations and chest pain. He didn’t listen to a word I said and I saw him for less than 5 minutes. The nurse was more helpful and informative than he was. Didn’t see the need for diagnostic testing besides labs and an ECG

My Daughter had a sudden and dangerous tear in her Coronary artery. Dr Falbo was wonderful, immediately saw her and got her stabilized. He quickly sent her to the Cath Lab for further diagnosis. He was largely responsible for saving her life.

My experience with Dr. Falbo was unsatisfactory and disappointing.

Absolutely horrible experience after visiting the ED. Did not want to do testing and then when I asked if he was going to he said well you don't play hockey, lacrosse or football do you. He also said, well you are not jumping out of the bed when I touch your spine so there is no damage. I have never been treated so poorly by a physician. He has condensending when I answered questions and I had to ask him to come back in so that I was not released without an exam.

I was advised to go to the ER by my pain doctor. I was reluctant to go but followed my physician’s advice! Once in the ER Dr. Falbo saw me. He never took blood pressure, listened to my heart or wanted to see the list of high BP numbers I have been logging for my PCP.He asked me questions and discharged me. He never took my vitals. Sad this is the care I received at St.Clair Hospital. I was sent home with sheets of exercises. I already go to PT and am certain I am in good care. Dr. Falbo’s exercises are too advanced for me in my condition. I will show David’s Therapy to learn which I can handle. No, no, no I will not recommend Dr. Falbo! I only got out of the chair once to walk for his exam!!! I feel this was a waste of time and money. He was negligent !

A family member was seen by Dr.Ralph A Falbo MD very disappointed with service and treatment

I went to the er with tooth pain. He rushed me through after barely even giving me any type of exam. After all this he called me a drug addict when I never even requested anything for pain, I simply wanted an antibiotic. He then prescribed me a medication that I cannot take due to possible reactions with other medications I am taking. Apparently he cant even read a chart, if I had taken his prescription it could have killed me. Terrible doctor, terrible experience
