Went in as a new patient. (Had to take time off from work to go). In the 20 minutes with the Doctors assistant and the 20 minutes or so that the Doctor was actually in the room with me, we were interrupted by staff 3 times! Doctor was rushed and, based on her cursory consideration of my health concerns, gave me a very take 2 aspirins and call me in the morning type of pre-testing diagnosis. I have a complicated medical history so the way that she chalked up all of my issues to 1 very over simplified root cause felt like I was not a person, I was just another appointment in her over-scheduled day that she had to get through to stay on track. Then the check out process took nearly an hour! At least 25 minutes of which were to blame on another doctors office that they were trying to schedule an appointment for me with. However, it was such a colossal waste of very limited, valuable time that it would have been more practical to tell me to follow up with them myself later than to just leave me sitting there wondering what the hold up was. I finally had to ask if it was something I could call them about myself. All in all, I felt completely unimportant. This practice has a very high production, conveyor belt type feeling. I am not used to being treated like just another number, particularly on a new patient consultation. Nor do I feel I deserve to be vilified when it comes to knowing my body and having researched my symptoms as they relate to the series of major surgeries I had, only to be told shes sure theres a simpler explanation, like you could use to drop a few pounds, then Im sure theyll all go away. NOT A DOCTOR I WILL ENTRUST WITH MY CARE. And as regards to the time it all took, I cant afford to lose 2 hours of my time again, to meet with the doctor and check out. Their time and schedule is important, but so is mine!

I have been going to Bradenton Physicians for about 2 years now and have been very happy with my doctor and the overall office. They have many doctors there and it does run like a city office rather than a small country doctors office. However, my doctor has always given me all the time that I needed. I have never needed or expected a ton of time, but always got all that I wanted. She has a PA who is available on short notice for concerns and a nurse who can always be reached by leaving a message. This is the nicest doctor that I have ever had. She is smart, alert, on top of it and compassionate. I have been to many doctors since I have been here in Bradenton and this one is the best. The office at times can make mistakes but nothing as troubling as some of the other doctors offices.

After searching for a new physician I thought Id finally found a great practice. That was short lived after learning when Id need to be see by the doctor for being sick Id be pushed onto an ARNP who spends a total of 3 seconds in the room, never introduces herself, hands me a prescription and says stop asking us for a referral you wont get it. The professionalism I DIDNT receive was absolutely appalling and left me feeling so frustrated that I intend to immediately seek a new physician that takes the time to meet with their patients and exhibit the dedicated personalism that is expected by a patient. Bradenton Physicians Center and Dr. Narasimman have left me so upset that I never intend to return.

Been with Dr. Aruna for 10+ years. She used to be so patient and caring but she has changed over the years. The med students do all of the work and have no idea what they are doing. The student just gave me every prescription I asked for without any supervision from the Dr. Her nurses are rude. She doesnt listen to your concerns. The last few visits she was actually backing out of the room while I was still talking to her and spent a whopping two minutes in the room with me. Theyre just herding cattle there and no longer have concern for the patients. Its just all about the $$$.

I was a patient of Dr. N. For over 10 years. We went through many changes in staff and her change in location. She changed personality wise, when she moved into the new offices. More students, more nurse time, less Dr. Interest. She went through 5-6 nurses while I was with her. When an issue arose that was important to me,, she chose to side with her new nurse on the issue without even hearing my side of the story. I have found another doctor who believes in my integrity and see me as a peer. It is sad to see a good doctor lose interest in her patients.

Absolutely the worst doctor I have ever been too, Dr Ahmed. I needed to change my blood work appt and you would have thought I committed a crime. Very rude...didnt ask if I was feeling ok, didnt ask if I had any concerns. Horrible...she up and left the room and I had a few things I wanted to talk to her about. I absolutely will be finding a new doctor as I still have health concerns. Never have I ever been to such a terrible doctor. Would not recommend such a uncaring person/doctor to anyone. #somepeoplethinktheirbetter #rottendoc #rottenperson

I am sitting here in the waiting room while the girls with attitude just were wispering wrong snarky comments about me. I have been here twice today because they dont listen to their patients, and kept doing the wrong thing. Treated without any respect, and with judgement for what your being treated for. If you want to just be a number, no personal care, dealing with frustrated staff, and have an extra few hours to kill during the day... Then I would recommend them... this is the place to be (all day).

She used to be a wonderful doctor, now she "doesnt feel comfortable" writing my prescriptions that she had been doind sinve 2009, so I told Linda who is very rude anyway that I was going to find a new doc. Next thing I know I get a letter in the mail saying they couldnt see me anymore. My records still havent been sent to my new doctors. Since they moved there isnt much one on one anymore, they went from 5 stars to I will never recommend them to anyone!!

The worst office staff Ive ever had to deal with. Rude and do not know their left hand from their right. Called 5 times with no response. Cancelled my appointments and blamed it on me.
