A patient review has raised significant concerns regarding the vascular care provided by Dr. Momin. This one-star review, posted on June 16, 2023, details a troubling experience that potential patients should consider. The reviewer explicitly states they will “never recommend Dr. Momin to anyone else experiencing vascular issues,” citing a series of alarming oversights and a lack of attentiveness.
The core complaint revolves around Dr. Momin’s apparent failure to thoroughly review the patient’s medical chart. Despite the patient having an aneurysm – a critical piece of information communicated to the nursing staff – Dr. Momin allegedly advised the patient to discontinue blood thinners. This advice, given without knowledge of the aneurysm, immediately raises red flags about patient safety and the standard of care provided.
Further issues were highlighted in the review. During the initial consultation, the patient requested a VQ scan, which Dr. Momin reportedly denied. The patient also claims to have requested this denial be documented in their chart, with uncertainty if this was ever actually done. This lack of transparency and the denial of a potentially relevant diagnostic test are concerning. Subsequent consultation with a cardiologist revealed the aneurysm, underscoring the initial missteps in vascular assessment.
Perhaps most disturbingly, the reviewer recounts an extremely brief consultation time of just two minutes and fourteen seconds. This brevity suggests a lack of engagement and personalized care. The patient felt Dr. Momin was more focused on defending the delayed appointment and his prior suggestion of a cardiologist referral, rather than addressing the patient’s current concerns and chest pain. The patient’s question, “What’s the point of having doctors with specialty degrees if I have to be the one to pursue my own referrals…because he didn’t care about me saying I had chest pain?” encapsulates the deep dissatisfaction and feeling of neglect experienced. This review serves as a stark warning for individuals seeking vascular care and considering Dr. Momin as their specialist.
