Siddiqui Shahid MD

I cant trust this doctor because he caused me to have a hernia after a heart catheterization which he did himself. He wont admit to it. It cost me pain, money, and time. I had to have a hernia operation. I will never visit this doctor ever for anything even if hell blows over. Trust me, if I cant trust him, would you trust him? His new address is 200 Jose Figueres Ave, San Jose, Ca.

This dr was referred to me by my primary physician for a transesophageal echocardiogram. His office was poorly managed and somehow forgot to send my paperwork to the hospital for the procedure, even after they called me several times to remind me of the appointment. (The hospital was literally next door to his office.) Arriving extremely late for the procedure (making me and several hospital staff wait for him to arrive), he clearly had not read my chart or the information provided directly to his office and to the hospital as to the reason for the TEE. His bedside demeanor was rude and his lack of preparation makes me question whether it was properly done. Do NOT go to this Dr. Shahid Kaleem Siddiqui or to San Jose Heart Center — there many other options out there with much better care.
