Dr. Preethi Prasad, MD

Dr. Prasad is pleasant, but after I declined ET, I felt very dismissed. My appointments consisted of being asked how I felt, told that it was normal, and pressured to take a medication I'd already expressed I did not want to take. I did eventually start taking it and felt horrible. I sent a message to ask if I could lower my dose and was told I'd have to make an appointment to receive an answer. Recently, I asked through MyChart if there was a part of my treatment that had been omitted. Again, I was told I'd have to make an appointment to get an answer. There is no reason to pay a copay for a yes or no answer. The rest of my oncology team made me feel heard and treated me the same when I did what they wanted me to or not. That has not been my experience with Dr. Prasad. If a patient sends a question through the app provided, and that question can be answered with a yes or no, doctors shouldn't withhold. If the answer is yes, but we need to talk through implications, say that.
