"Today was my first visit with Dr. Paudel. He was wonderful. He put me at ease, made me laugh and sincerely listened to everything I had to say. I will definitely refer anyone I know to him. The staff at Coastal cancer center was also fantastic. Thank you all for your genuine kindness and care. "

"Had the absolute worst patient experience here. Went in as a referral and Dr. Vijay Paudel was an absolute PRICK. First thing he said to me was that I needed to go visit my psychiatrist to re-evaluate my medications! That is between my psych and I! It gets 10x worse, my PCP thinks my platelets aren't working and I have significant unexplained bruising (black and blue, dark brown, yellow, so in all stages of forming) all on my extremities. When I showed him photos his response was "Do you have dogs?" WHAT? I said ...yes. He said flat out "That's why you have bruising" I said no, my dogs do not jump on me and if they did, I wouldn't be sitting in your office right now. Then after confirming my Requip meds work great for my restless leg syndrome, he said "Well if it's not the dogs you're kicking yourself in your sleep" Um, how do I kick my knee caps, shins, and arms? If he knew what RLS was, he'd know its a SENSATION to move your legs preventing you from sleeping or resting. Then, I rolled ...
up my pants leg and showed him new bruising that showed up within the last day, swear to god, his response immediately was "Why are you so pale? Do you not go in the sun because of your PTSD?" I'm sorry but what the F*??? I have severe PTSD from hiding from an active shooter! I said "..No I just don't want skin cancer...and I left self tanner off so you could see the bruising for yourself.." Then, he said "Well do you want to waste your time and do more testing (that my PCP wanted) because I'm 100% certain it'll all come back normal. I said I guess not and grabbed my purse and left. I've never been treated like that by a DOCTOR. He did not discuss or elaborate on anything I was there to talk about. He treated me like I came in because I had one bruise on my leg. No, this has been going on for months along with dizziness and light headedness. He also asked why I was taking vitamins (???) And said I should stop them all including iron even though I can be anemic. When he asked about my cycle, I showed him my flo app that shows I've been bleeding for over a month. Dr. Vijay Paudel you are a disgrace. Show your patients some respect. Do NOT go here unless you're an elder with cancer because if not, in their eyes, you're "100% normal" even with a referral and REAL concerns wanting bloodwork done that can't be done at a PCP office. Waste of my time, $60 co pay, and I'm extremely insulted. "
