Dr. Ritesh Rathore, MD 50 Maude Street, Providence, RI 02908

"Dr.Rashid and his staff were fully unprepared to help a newly diagnosed cancer patient in pain, confused and with a lung slowly filling with fluid because it was the holiday season and he couldn't be bothered to do his job. His staff was unprofessional and mishandled paperwork. He changed his treatment plan abruptly, without warning and without explaining why, leaving his patient confused and frustrated. When approved family members attempted to call for clarification, we were told he would only call one person back. So our plan to have the patient only need concern themselves with prescription refills was unable to work. As it is, this doctor never called anyone back at all, not even to schedule a fluid removal from a cancerous lung. This patient ended up being readmitted to the hospital after waiting for Dr.Rathore for 3 days. Seeing doctors who quickly provided pain relief, a clear treatment plan and a regularly scheduled drainage of lung fluids really brought home how horrible our treatment was at this facility. It was like being in a 3rd world country and the lack of respect given to the patients and their family when they have just been delivered a life altering diagnosis was just unacceptable."

"I was referred to Dr. Rathore after my surgery in May 2020. I had a radical orchiectomy to remove the right testicle where a cancerous germ cell tumor was present. I see him for routine surveillance visits now as I am in surgical remission (every few months currently). He is very knowledgeable, professional, humble, and on your side all of the way. I am extremely thankful and grateful to have such a great doctor. He is one of kind!"

"I find this physician to be patient humble and kind- I have had the opportunity to meet him while guiding a friend to make his decision on treatment- each time Dr R has made it clear and simple for us to understand and patient in answering all of our questions. A true professional with a heart."
