RRH Sands-Constellation Heart Institute

This is a very late review but I was seen by Dr. Tajen B Patel on October 31st at 10:15am. He is the rudest doctor I have EVER had to deal with. Not only was he rude, he was very dismissive. For context I'm a 23 year old female that's been experiencing chest pains for several months now. Prior to this appointment I was in the emergency room because of this chest pain, they referred me to a cardiologist and, unfortunately that doctor being Dr. Patel, because they said that I have underlying risks for heart disease. I got to the appointment and once they took me back and they did an EKG and took my blood pressure. Both were normal, most likely because I took my meds that were prescribed for high blood pressure and then another one because my pulse was high too at some point. I was in the cha

This office has always taken great care of me. From medicine to heart care advice I have not had one single issue. Besides, the staff are a great bunch of ladies and I just wanted to say thanks!!

My father has been a patient to this practice for many years. While being checked in he was asked if everything was the same, to which he responded yes. He was still asked to show his insurance card in order to check to make sure it matched what was on file. He found this was odd since there were no changes. While sitting in the waiting room I noticed the next six people that were checked in were not asked to produce an insurance card in order to check to see if what was on file matched. Their word was not second guessed when they said everything is the same. Only difference was, he was a brown man. As much as I hate to insinuate this discrimination. It was much sadder to witness in person. Disappointed.

The staff and PAs here are wonderful. If you ever get to meet melony (hope that's how it's spelled) she is such a people person and extremely helpful. I have been struggling with insurance and paying for jardiance. I am ignorant when it comes to insurance and she went the extra mile to get me pointed in the right direction. Also saved me 55$ a month by doing what rxsaver wanted to charge me to do. She got me some free samples until I got it situated. Dealing with heart stuff is scary enough it's nice to be at a place where they are warm and willing to help you.

Have been being seen here for the last 8 months. It hasn't been a positive experience, I notice the notes they take down arent accurate for example I quit smoking 60 days ago and in my notes Dr puts down 9 months. I feel like nobody cares to listen. No medication for a repeat issue. Going to get another opinion in another city because clearly this place is over worked. The PA cares more than the Drs if your lucky enough to see one.
