Jagannath J Patil, MD

“TL;DR: If you are a woman, are diagnosed bipolar 1, and or both of those things, do not go to SIHF if you can avoid it. OG review: The worst psych I’ve ever had. He’s so incompetent and argumentative. He wouldn’t need to argue with anyone if he’d just listen the first time. He was my only option at the time and I’m convinced that I would’ve been better off had I not seen him. Save yourself the trouble. Edit: switched to a different doctor and found out the medication routine I was on was worsening my symptoms. I had been diagnosed bipolar 1 for years before I started seeing Dr. Patel and he had me on a less than therapeutic dose of a mood stabilizer and an SNRI. He worsened my symptoms and put me into crisis several times throughout my time with him. He believed that my emotions were all hormonal and tried to push hormonal birth control onto me despite me telling him that estrogen based birth control worsens my mood swings. Initially I tried to switch to another practitioner in SIHF and received a similar level of care as I received from Dr. Patel, albeit she was way nicer, just way more adamant about the birth control aspect. I had to leave the company as a whole to receive the level of care I needed and without judgment. It’s been four months since I tapered off of my SNRI and started the proper medication. These have been the most peaceful four months I’ve had in years.”

“I would give this quack no stars but that’s not an option. My boyfriend is his patient and is on fluoxetine for his severe anxiety. He works 7 days a week and hasn’t been able to take off for an appointment so this joke of a doctor put a hold on his medication. My boyfriend has to have this medicine to be able to function daily as his anxiety gets so bad that he’s hospitalized by it if he’s not on it. So this negligent man has put a hold on his medication so no one else can prescribe it either. Please do not go to this quack. He’s is medically negligent and I will be contacting a medical malpractice lawyer about him being negligent. Hopefully he’ll lose his license so he can’t deny anyone else they’re rights. Little does this quack know what he’s doing is illegal. He’s not acting as a reasonable person would and in medical law that’s reason enough to have your license ripped from you. Please don’t waste your time or money dealing with this pathetic excuse for a “doctor”.”

“I am a new patient of Dr. Jagannath and he has been nothing but attentive to my needs. I really like my new Dr. And I feel comfortable talking to him about whatever I need to. I look forward to seeing him for a long time. I recommend him for sure.”

“Dr Patil is sweet have had no problem. Now on the other hand the reception desk is a big joke. After waiting 45 mins for someone to answer I was greeted its a rude additude and was told what day and time my appointment was without any kind of recognition of my work schedule.”
