Shraddha Prakash, MD

She’s nice, but I always felt rushed whenever I visit her. I have had pain to my finger joints and labs came back negative for what I was originally diagnosed for a few years ago. She kept telling me she doesn’t know what’s going on with me and that the pain I am experiencing on my finger joints are probably related to overuse. I don’t understand what I could be doing to exacerbate these pains; which comes and goes. Anyway, it just seems that every time I see her, she tells me the same thing instead of genuinely listening and really trying to figure things out. It seems most doctors these days don’t ask questions pertaining to history anymore. They just imply their assumptions of what they think is going on and I am supposed to believe that this is the case? How about looking into other things like, «how’s your diet»? At the end of my visit, I either get a steroid shot or more medications. Ugh! So frustrating. I am about to diagnose myself.
