Patients also share

The reviews contain very few criticisms. One patient felt dismissed when Dr. Bhat attributed back and shoulder pain to posture without fully exploring the concern. One reviewer noted that they felt more invested in solving their own health issues than Dr. Bhat appeared to be. Another patient mentioned that Dr. Bhat did not offer advice for concerns they raised during a visit. One reviewer expressed frustration with changes to the patient portal that limited their ability to initiate communication with the provider. These represent isolated experiences and stand in stark contrast to the overwhelmingly positive feedback from the vast majority of patients.
