Dr. Saadat Shariff, MD

Needs to learn how to behave with a colleague. Left a threatening message with a nurse to have me call back. Then proceeded to make an inaccurate evaluation outside of her expertise without appropriate information about the patient. She was also yelling at me about a medication that patient was discharged with stating that I started it and I should have been aware of it etc etc. I was very well aware I didn’t start. Will not be referring my patients to her anymore.

Fails to listen to the concerns of patients which leads to further complications with illness. Case in point, individual with Type 2 diabetes complains of pain in foot and requests to have it seen and for medication to help with an ulcer on the foot and the injured foot is not looked at and medication request is denied. This leads to a follow-up visit and because the issue has worsened, the individual is told that now there is a chance for an amputation (this happened on August 2, 2023). However, because the issue has worsened, she now waits for antibiotics and a host of other medications to help alleviate the issue. Doctors should listen to their patients and if there is a language issue, request that a translator is present.
