The worst doctor: Dr. Robert Patrick Jalleh. I had an anal fistula, and from the very beginning, before surgery, he didn’t perform any scans of the area that was going to be operated on. A month after the surgery, the wound hadn’t even recovered, and the abscess became infected again. Just two days ago, I returned to the hospital and saw the same doctor. Once again, he didn’t explain anything and simply recommended another surgery. I requested an ultrasound or MRI scan to check if the bacteria had been fully cleared and the track have any branches , i as leaving bacteria behind could lead to the same problem recurring. However, the doctor said it was unnecessary. I’ve completely lost confidence in this doctor because even when my wound hadn’t healed, he insisted it wouldn’t happen again—and yet, within a weeks, it did. Additionally, when I requested a scan, he refused, and I don’t know why. Because of this, I will never return to this hospital again, as the doctor is clearly irresponsible.
