Dr. Roopa Hathwar, MD

You state that Dr. Hathwar was taking new patients when she is not. I use to work with her husband and always heard great things about her. Very disappointing.

I went to see Dr. Hathwar today (April 19, 2022) I have gone to Dr. Roopa Hathwar for almost 10 years. She is wonderful, empathic Doctor. She is just amazing when you have bad days even. I will continue to go to her as long as I can. I thank her all the time for being who she is.

I’ve now spent half of my life with chronic pain and various health issues which continue to go undiagnosed & untreated. Dr. Hathwar was one of dozens of drs who have failed to find a culprit or provide me any relief. While I appreciate Dr. Hathwar's willingness to run many tests on me, I wasn't a fan of her condescending attitude, & unwilling to think outside the box. She had no hesitation prescribing countless toxic medications, yet is unwilling to consider or research safer options. When I pursued medical marijuana to help with pain & appetite, she made me feel like I was drug seeking, when all I wanted was a safer option to help with appetite and pain relief. She was opposed to trying any meds that weren't specifically approved by the FDA for proposed use, yet would then prescribe me a different med that was not FDA approved for her intended use. If you're healthy and require only periodic checkups, Hathwar is fine. Just don't have high hopes if you ever get sick.
