What People Say About Dr. Shobha Sikka, MD

Dr. Shobha Sikka, MD

This is probably one of the worst experiences I have ever had with a practice. The office is incredibly disorganized and this affected my medical treatment. I was forced to cancel a procedure after calling the office over ten times in the course of a week. These calls were to schedule a pre procedure test and ask a few questions. The office had told me that they were going to send my pre procedure test to a Lab Corp, but they never did. This forced me to cancel my procedure. The doctor herself is ok, but seems a bit distracted during appointments. There were times where I felt she didn't pay attention to my concerns.

Dr. Sikka was highly recommended by my regular GYN and despite having seen her to obtain a 2nd opinion and her knowing that I was only there for a 2nd opinion, I was very pleased with the level of care I received from the nurse and Dr.Sikka. She was very thorough, kind, and has a great bedside manner. She explains everything in detail and the level of care she provides is top notch. It was because of her demeanor and thoroughness that I chose her. My recovery has been amazing!
