| - I wish I'd have read the reviews first. I too would give Dr Sikhand and this place 0 stars if I could. I had a tonsillectomy by dr Ashley Sikhand last wed 8/12/15. He left my surgery before I awoke or before my sister had any time to even ask if everything went OK. There was no follow up call/ email or anything from his office. He prescribed a pain killer and an antibiotic for me to have filled and start taking after the surgery- THANK GOD my pharmacy checks because the antibiotic he gave was NOT mixable with the pain killer- they said the side effects were known and dangerous and they were very surprised they were prescribed by any professional! When my sister called his office to ask for an alternate prescription, she left several messages and I finally emailed them - 2 DAYS LATER the Dr's scheduler replied saying "sorry they had phone issued for a few hours the day before" mind you my sister had been calling 2 days at this point! The scheduler didn't even bother to call us at that point, just an email saying someone would call us soon. When the Dr's assistant, Irene, finally called she said the doc decided I don't need antibiotics since the one he prescribed wasn't a good mix with the pain med he wanted me on. When I asked for a different pain med cause the one he gave just kept me dizzy and tired but didn't help the pain, I was told they don't prescribe anything else. I could go buy some Tylenol if I wanted. I've asked for a follow up appointment as my voice is entirely gone, I've lost 10 pounds in 6 days, can't eat and just want to make sure I'm really OK. I do know this is a tough surgery on adults, and don't want to be overly worried, but I deserve a follow up if I ask for one. Hell, I'm the one paying for the visit! When I called at 9am this morning, I was told the scheduler would get back to me later today- but AGAIN NOBODY has called me back, and they're now closed for the day. I am almost in tears with the pain, and nobody there seems to care at all. The other reviewers are so right- you have to leave dozens of messages to get through, because nobody ever picks up! The scheduler was in regular touch with me, until the day I made payment- 3 days before surgery. After that, her replies were quite delayed/ or didn't happen at all. I am extremely displeased and would not recommend this clinic or doctor to anyone EVER. My regular doc, is wonderful and I went here due to her referral, as she's always referred me to good specialists in the past. I will be giving her my full review in hopes she may reconsider recommending this place/ staff/ doctor to anyone in the future. Avoid this place at all costs of you expect any concern/ follow up or post are at all.
