Ravinder P. Singh, MD, Garden Grove CA

Terrible, unprofessional doctor. Doesn't listen, just puts you on a ton of meds. She is rude and she raised her voice to me. I switched from her to a wonderful doctor. Run, do not walk, away from this person. She is horrible and toxic.

Dr. Singh is very professional and excellant at listening to my symptoms. We came up with a medication plan that BOTH of us agreed and is flexible when minor tweaks are necessary. She is very easy to work with.

If I could give 0 stars I would.
Pretty much the same thing happened to me as Marlene Vasquez on here, Dr. Singh rushed me and my mother who would be in the office as well. I was straight up told I did not have autism (high functioning or otherwise) because and that I was more then highly likely misdiagnosed "when I was younger". Thing was and I told her, I wasn't diagnosed till I was an adult by a specialist in the field. So that accounts for her not listening.

She rushes people out all the time, we would have a appointment that could last all of 5 minutes despite me voicing concerns about medications and what I was experiencing and how I thought the dosage was wrong. (I came to see due to audio and visual hallucinations). And her plan for was to just up the dosage.

When I brought up the issues I was having she might ask once or not at all unless I brought it up if I was still hearing/seeing things, instead she focused more on my how my mood fluctuated. Which wasn't the issue at all as I didn't have mood swings (unless I got mad at her bs).

Overall we always got rushed to leave, I never felt listened to, she said she would print up paperwork for me that I needed for another doctor and not only did I have to contact her weeks later but she suddenly says she can't do it, thats not to mention the money issues.

She tells us she takes CalOptima when we joined and the price I was to pay, not only did she raise the price from what was agreed upon but we find out later she did this due to that she doesn't take my insurance anymore yet we find out later that she hasn't for over 6 MONTHS? !
I wonder how their booking is done if they somehow didn't see that huge mistake on their end.

I ended up not going back to her, I am now with a much better doctor who actually listens to my concerns and helps me.

I have visited this doctor twice and I just want to say that I am very disappointed with Dr. Singh for various reasons: she didn't take the time to listen to me/invalidated about my thoughts and symptoms, she committed a hippa violation, and she was in general very rude and unprofessional. The first time I visited her she spoke with me very briefly (approximately 5 minutes). She interrupted me several times and I felt very rushed. I found this concerning because it has been the first time I have been on medication for depression in years and I made sure she was aware of that. Because I felt like she hadn't taken the time to listen to me during the first session, I suggested that it would be a good idea I sign a release of medical information form during my second session with Dr. Singh. I did this because I thought that if she wouldn't listen to me, maybe she would listen to my therapist. I was trying to get information from her as to how to go about getting a release of information form but she didn't explain to me how to get one. She just told me that I had to bring it to her and that it wasn't necessary for her to speak with my therapist. Also, during the beginning of my session with her when she let me into her office, she made a phone call in front of me in which she disclosed personal information of one of her patients. I heard her say the name of another patient and discuss their treatment. This rubbed me off the wrong way and I know for a fact that is a HIPPA violation. Also, during my second session I brought a note from my therapist because she was concerned that I was displaying symptoms of a different mental illness. After Dr. Singh read the note, she laughed at the way my therapist phrased something and didn't bother to ask me any questions about the symptoms my therapist was concerned about. Her response to the letter was "well we'll see how you do on the meds" and I felt like she was laughing at me or that she didn't believe my symptoms. At that point I was already on the medication for two months. Because of my experience, I didn't show up for my last appointment. I ran out of medication and I have been going through horrible withdrawls for a week now. I don't trust this doctor. The medication was very helpful and this is the first time I take an antidepressant that helped but because of her unprofessional behavior I would much rather go through withdrawl than feel invalidated and belittled by her.
