Collin Teguh, DO

One word — Incompetent. I had lipid panels done and was given simvastatin to control high cholesterol. There was no follow up call later to tell me to get another lipid panel done to see if the medication was working. I was never told to call back three months later or anything by the doctor or assistant when I went there. So I ended up calling them back to follow up myself. The assistant called me back with the results of the second lipid panel and said she would call through another drug to my pharmacy and renew my simvastatin prescription, She did neither of those things. I’ve called back twice now and can’t get through, so I leave a message, but they never call me back. Like many general practitioners, they get paid $ 1000 an hour off my insurance to do nothing. Teguh’s manner is wishy washy and he never explains what is going on, never asks if I have side effects, never follows up, and his assistant doesn’t do what she says. I won’t be going back.

Ok so I hate giving bad reviews but this is all I can give right now in hopes that there is improvement.
I’m just going say it clean and simple, this doctor and the nurses here, although kind, did not seem to know what they were doing.
I went in with a horrible cough and Several other problems but with my cough I was at my wits end. When I was finally seen the doctor or nurses did nothing to check my breathing or look at my throat or in my ears or anything really. I was shocked. They only swabbed my throat to send to a lab in which I never heard of again.
Concerning the throat swab, the nurse stuck the thing in my mouth and was like, «am I reaching it? I can’t see so…». I was a little concerned as they were the professionals. Did they know what they were doing?
They then gave me a phone number and told me to run a few tests and shooed me out of there. It was a complete waste of time. Nobody talked about my cough. But, trusting the doctor I decided to shut up and wait for the test result.
A week passed and today I called them to ask about my test results as I haven’t heard from them since. A pleasant nurse picked up and after putting me on hold, took my name and number and told me that they would call me back later today. This was in the morning and I still haven’t gotten a call back.
Doctor, this is really unprofessional and I’ve never felt so Not helped by a healthcare professional. My cough is worsening and I’m too frustrated and sick to beg and bug you to help me.

My roommate has been seeing him for a couple of years and he says that «it’s hard to reach a live person on the phone. I go thru the bot messages and phone tree’s, then I can leave a message, but I am lucky if someone calls me back.»
This causes me concern because his insurance will often tell him to get an okay from this doctor for necessary tests and procedures.
My roommate also has told me that his health-​insurance company can’t even get ahold of this doctor quite often
So, how about dealing with this problem? Hmm?

Dr. Teguh has been taking care of me for the past 4 years. He has always been patient & understanding with all of my questions and concerns. His staff are also top-​notch. He is a DO vice MD so his philosophies are more aligned to getting you fit & healthy via natural methods vice medication. Last year I asked for a recommendation for an Omega-​3 supplement pill and he handed me a brochure on how to obtain Omega-​3 via a proper diet. However, he was very quick to prescribe anti-​flu meds when I got the flu. Dr. Teguh & his staff are the best of the best & a great bedside manner.

Horrible Dr. Office. Made appointment 3 weeks in advanced through HealthNet with new Obama care insurance confirmed twice before the appointment and was told I was good but when I got to the office I was told they didn’t take my insurance any more. Very disappointing and unhelpful people. Was told I could pay cash.

I went to Dr. Teguh’s office about a month ago and it was an excellent experience. Making an appointment was quick and easy, the forms required as a first time patient were not excessive or complex, the nurse that saw me initially was very sweet while also noting all important details about my general health and why I was there, and the doctor himself was pleasant and efficient in diagnosing the problem. I will absolutely be returning to this office the next time I need to see a doctor.

I believe Dr. Collin Teguh is a good Doctor. The reason I say that is he listened to me. I gave me the medicine I needed for my asthma and even gave me a couple sample inhalers that way I would not run out so quickly. I do not understand why people always have to play the race card if you do not understand someone ask them to repeat what they said or have them write it down. I do not think anyone would mind if an individual getting clarification on what was said. I will continue to see Dr. Teguh as long as he is around one of the best experiences I have ever had at a Doctor’s office or appointment and far as his medical assistant goes she was friendly, knowledgably, I had no problems with her what so ever.

I hate to write bad reviews, but heaven knows that they are necessary at times. Dr. Teguh means well, but is a bit incompetent for my standards. His front desk girl, Marcela, is one of the most annoying, slow, and well, incompetent medical assistants I have ever had the displeasure of encountering. She spent an entire HOUR haggling me over insurance (saying I did not have it, when in fact, I DO), while I watched as others without cards were simply told she’d bill them if she could not verify their information?! To top it all off, I had to personally get my insurance provider on the phone FOR her just to clarify once and for all that I was worthy of an exam. At the end of it all, in what was a 10-​minute exam, Dr. Teguh surmised that I needed to have some labs done to confirm what the issue was (of course, he forgot to correctly complete the Qwest Diagnostics from, and to mention that I should fast and get there before 9AM for the blood work), rather than just refer me to a specialist (which was all I wanted in the first place).
In the end, I wasted an hour of my time, and wound up with all of the wrong information and had to go through hell and high water (my husband had to physically go to their office and ask for it to be faxed, as well as his own copy) just to get them to release my own lab results to a specialist. When my husband arrived there, the doctor kept insisting that they close the office rather than listen to what he wanted from them.
I DO NOT recommend this doctor to anyone who values their time or their copay money.

overall he is just a ok doctor. first time i went he was pretty funny. was kinda helpful but it was sooooo hard to understand anything he says. well he sent me to lab corp and lab corp informed me that it would take about 2 or 3 days to get my results and my doctors should call me. 5^th day i called the doctor they informed me that had nothing. on the 10^th i called him back and they had my results told me everything is fine and hung up. well i had to go back for a checkup after that and the medicine he gave me didnt work. the day the showed up he was 20mins late and this is after they weight me and blood pressure etc. and than he walked in and i felt sooooo rushed i couldnt ask him a question his hands were on the knob and door was opened and i still had question and i just gave up and decided not to come back.

This Unilocal review was very reliable! I had a tough day finding a doc to take me last minute, and this place gave me a «new patient» appointment on the same day. Office location is nice, lots of parking with small free parking lot at the building. Staff was very friendly and everything seemed to run smoothly with no major lines or long waiting. Best and Most Importantly, the Doctor, very helpful, quick & to-​the-​point, friendly, and insightful. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area.

Here I am… Unilocaling a dr too! I decided that since I found him on Unilocal,I’d write a review after I saw him. Dr Teguh is awesome. Great bedside manner and gives you the time you deserve. I’d recommend!

Dr. Teguh is *beyond* great, as is his staff. His office is super convenient to get to (in University Heights — with parking lot!), you won’t end up waiting in the waiting room for an hour, and Dr. Teguh himself is very easy to talk to, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, kind, trustworthy… everything you want in a doctor! And like Lilly said — he’s got a great memory, which makes you really feel like you matter to him as a patient! Dr. Teguh is the best there is!

I agree it may be a little weird to Unilocal your doctor but Dr. Teguh is REALLY that good.
We use him as our primary care physician for myself, my husband, my 11 year old, and my 1 year old son. He is patient, kind, friendly, knowledgeable and always listens. I never feel that any of my questions are dumb or that he thinks I’m silly for asking. His staff is friendly, courteous, and always willing to help out. I love that I can usually call and get either a same day or next day appointment.
My mom took my 1 year old son for one his check-​ups and she loved him so much, she quickly changed her PCP to Dr. Teguh.

I know this is weird to Unilocal your doctor, but Dr. Teguh is that good.
I needed a primary care doctor, and a friend recommended him, followed by further endorsement from my bro-​in-​law. I showed up to the office, which was a small charming office tucked away in University Heights (?). Dr Teguh is friendly and welcoming, as was his staff. He’s laid back and took his time answering my questions.
When I came back a week later to review my bloodwork with him he was chit chatting with me about my sister, who had been there the week before, and asked me about my upcoming travels, a testament to his good memory. And a doctor who smiles? Love it. This is modern medicine with a friendly touch!
