Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Horrible Doctor!!
Genuinely confused as to how this excuse of a doctor made it through medical school. In march I came down with a horrible case of tonsillitis which developed into pneumonia and back into tonsillitis along with coughing up CUPS of blood a day for all of march and my resting heart rate hanging at around 120. So I was in and out of the ER all month. I saw “Dr” Tummala three times and on the last time he walked in and without even examining me said “Shes here every week discharge her” I thank GOD everyday that I told this horrible man that I was not consenting to being discharged. Had I gone home I would have died. My hemoglobin level was at 6.1 which is below the point where an emergency transfusion is needed. I was literally YELLOW and unable to stand on my own. This man needs to be fired and have his medical license revoked.

Stayed at the hospital 10 hours for chest pains and a blood pressure reading of 195/105. They didn’t see me til after 8 hours of waiting. People with minor injuries/ ailments went before me. I had HEART ATTACK SYMPTOMS. Anyways, after waiting all that time, this horrible excuse of a doctor saw me for one minute and said high blood pressure is “all in my mind” and discharged me as my blood pressure was raising. Absolutely ridiculous and he NEEDS to be fired immediately.

A Very very immature man. He a MD.. Don't put your life in his hands or ask him any questions about his treatment.. He may stomp his feet and walk out of the room saying you are mocking him or making fun of him.. Unbelievable experience with him and staff at Desert Valley Hospital Emergency Room yesterday.. If you don't believe me search Google for reviews of Desert Valley Emergency Room and Hospital and how he treats Human Beings.. Shame on you PT..
