Dr. Dib may very well be a good doctor. It’s hard to tell because he will only show you the “stage” version of his professional demeanor. From the minute he walks into a room, he’s in entertainment mode, and that is all you will ever see… unless you criticize him. Well, in a minute... My wife, Donna, developed an atrial fibrillation, which is what brought us to Dr. Dib. To be fair, he was very thorough in making sure that she had no parallel conditions that might lead to stroke during the electrical cardioconversion procedure he planned to perform. However, when I asked him (at least a couple of times) what happens if this procedure fails, all we ever got was, “You will be fine, we don’t need to worry about what comes next, we will fix your heart for you,” with a tone like a parent annoyed with a child asking too many questions. As a result of this “I will take care of you,” fog, we were taken completely by surprise when Donna had to be admitted to the hospital, after three attempts failed to shock her heart back into a proper rhythm. The next step, it now became known to us, was to administer a drug through IV for 24 hours, to accomplish what the shocking couldn’t. Had Dr. Dib answered our questions, we would have been ready for this. Instead, we were totally unprepared and I had to make an extra trip (100 miles, round-trip). Hospital admission after this procedure is not common, but not rare, either. Dr. Dib should have explained this possibility to us before the procedure. Dr. Dib likes to play practical jokes, at your expense, as part of his presentation. Some people like this, I hear. We didn’t. For example, at our first office visit, he spent a few minutes talking perfunctorily about the procedure, then grabbed a pair of rubber gloves and told Donna to get on the table for her “rectal exam.” Huh? After we fumbled a few confused words about this, he smiled and told us it was just a joke. We were trying to listen carefully to what he was saying, trying not to miss anything, when he tossed in this ridiculous “humor,” knocking us completely off-balance, just to satisfy his sense of showmanship. This left us squirming in our chairs, wondering how we should respond to anything he was saying. Joke? Medical information? Hard to tell. Clearly, though, the jokes were more important than offering substantial answers to serious questions, several of which were still hanging when he walked out of the room. Time, and time again, he would respond to technical questions with deflecting, condescending “reassurances,” failing to offer any information. The final insult came at discharge. The intravenous procedure ended at noon, the next day, and we were told that Dr. Dib would be in thereafter to finalize the discharge. Even though we were told, repeatedly, that he was “on the floor” and would be in to see us “shortly,” it was 3 ½ hours later that he finally walked in the room, said in the most off-hand way, “Oh, I see that you are fine; you can go,” and started walking out. At this point, I lost my temper, a bit, and asked him if there were some medical reason that required us to wait over three hours, at the end of a completely unexpected hospital stay, for this 5-second proclamation, and why weren’t we told about the possibility of hospitalization before hand? He did not take this criticism well. After a few more words, he told me that “You (meaning me) needed to find a new cardiologist,” and stormed out of the room. The problem with this is that I didn’t need a cardiologist, Donna did. She had nothing to do with the discussion that Dr. Dib and I had about his behavior. In fact, she did not approve of my interference (rightly so; it was her procedure). Yet Dr. Dib dismissed her without the slightest recognition that she was a different person, his patient, and had made no verbal quarrel with him. Subsequent attempts to bring this logical fallacy to his attention elicited no response. His sense of pride turned out to be much more important to him than fidelity to the Hippocratic Oath. In my opinion, Dr. Dib failed to provide good medical care for us. He repeatedly failed to answer technical questions, substituting his version of humor and condescending dismissal, all of which left us confused about what to expect, and unprepared for the hospital stay. When confronted with this inadequacy, he displayed childish arrogance, which is unacceptable anywhere, but much more so when it comes from someone you hope you can trust with you r life. He refused to follow through his obligation to provide medical care to his patient, all because he didn’t like the patient’s spouse. I recommend that prospective patients look elsewhere for a cardiologist, unless you enjoy being the butt of crude jokes, are ok with inadequate information about the treatment you seek, and don’t mind a capricious attitude toward your needs as a patient.

If you believe that a 15 minute service time with your Dr., then you would fit well with Dr. Bui. She runs her office like a cattle call. She does not appreciate you asking questions, or making notes that you provide. When I took too much time, after having a sever reaction to medication she told me that given her 15 minutes and move on practice she told me to go find a cardiologist else. She sarcastically said I need a concierge cardiologist--one that would give me all the time I need. I found her to be offensive, defense and rude. She advised me to never come back to her office again.

I believe Dr. Fernandes literally saved my life. She is the best physician I have ever encountered. I am a health care professional and have never seen a more passionate and compassionate person as well as cardiologist. She takes whatever time is required to make sure that not only your medical needs are addressed but to make sure you are both on the same page about treatment plans, Rx, etc. Is it more important to have a great doctor who will fix your health or one that blows off anything that is not on THEIR agenda? Good care takes time and it also takes cooperation between patient and physician. I would recommend her (and have) to my own children and friends.

This is a horrible doctor. No compassion for his patients. My grandfather suffers from heart failure and dementia. He was just released from ICU in March and I moved him into my home. I am establishing care with all new specialists in Dallas. My grandfather had a virtual appt. with Dr. Ashwani today. This was the first appt for my grandfather. Dr. Ashwani started off by being very rude to my grandfather because my grandfather couldn’t remember his current health issues due to his dementia. I always assist my grandfather with his memory and I only minutes earlier confirmed with the doctor’s MA that Dementia was in the grandfather’s chart. Dr. Ashwani tells my grandfather, you should know this, it’s your health. This comment embarrassed my grandfather. I also had to continue to repeat the fact that my grandfather was in ICU in South Carolina. Then he tell my grandfather not to drink water. I have never heard of a doctor telling a patient not to drink water. The hospital, primary care physician and Cardiologist wants him to urinate to keep the fluid off of his heart. My grandfather has a pacemaker and heart failure. He almost died 2 months ago because there was fluid collected on his heart and caused his heart to stop. I attempted to inform Dr. Ashwani of the reason why all of my grandfather’s doctors are telling him to stay hydrated. Before I could give any info, the doctor cut me off to say, “he’s on a water pill, what do you think a water pill does?” The fact isn’t, my grandfather is not getting enough fluid out of his body hence the reason why he drinks water. This doctor is extremely rude. This was a very horrible experience. I want a doctor that cares about their patients. His therapy plan for my grandfather could mean life or death. I don’t want someone that does care either way. This doctor also had the nerve to stop in the middle of my grandfather’s visit just to have a long discussion with his MA about another patient while in front of the camera.
