Dr. Yamini Ramalingam, MD

At some moments there has been somewhat of a wait but its only because she puts all of her time into each and every one of her patients. For me she found out my underline problems because she took the time to listen to figure out everything. She is definitely worth the wait! Shes a doctor you keep for life!

This doctor was suggested to my family by our insurance. We spent two hours filling out paperwork, etc.. before we were seen for her to walk out of the room and deny my children the medical attention they needed. She is listed as our primary on our insurance cards yet turned us away and refused to treat my children. It was not a good experience. Poor attitudes from her as well as her staff. My advise is research before picking a family doctor! Find one who cares about their patients!!!

When I First Saw DR. RAMALINGAM I was Very Sick and Had No Doctor , They allowed Me In Right Away with Great Treatment And She Became My Doctor. Her Staff Would allow me In After Leaving Work With Injuries Immediately . Thru Her Professional Care She Uncovered That I Had Prostate Cancer In Time That I Had It Eradicated and No Sign Of It 11 Years Later. I Can Tell You That Because of Some Illness I Have Had Way Previous To My Care With Her That My Body Has Not Been Kind To Me. In My Time with Her I Can Tell You This , The Expert Care That She Gives To Me She Shares with Every One Else. I Have Heard Her CHEERFUL Greeting She Gives To Me With Everyone. She Is Truly Caring with Every One . TIME Needed For Every ones Lives Is Demanding , We All Share This Issue . There are Times DOCTOR RAMALINGAM Is At The Hospital Very Late With Her Patients In Need. In My 11 Years with Her I Have Only Had To Wait Awhile For Her To Arrive For Morning Appointments a Few Times. She Is Allowed That , She Is Only Human , Nobody Can Run A Perfect Record In 11 Years. She Is A Perfectionist who Truly Cares For all Her Patients , I Know I Have seen It . I Pray Good Health To All Of You , You Will Be In Good Hands With DOCTOR RAMALINGAM .

My 2nd (and final!) appt. I was kept waiting in the exam room for an hour and 20 minutes. I had a 9 am appt. as I had to be somewhere at 11. After waiting that long I finally went out to the receptionist and found out the Dr. wasn't in yet! She hadn't even bothered to call her office. I ended up leaving withpyt seeing her. I now go to Dr. Maria Goleba and am very happy!

Seen this woman a back in 2009 once. She was rotten. Her office was a mess. No computers very unprofessional!!! Most of her patients are on state aid. She also stole $90 from me. Not good for Goodrich or anyone for that matter. Don't make the same mistake I did going here!!! Save your health, time and money. RUN

There was a lot of paper work to fill out, it did take me awhile to see her. About 1 and 1/2 hours. It was worth the wait. I have never met a more caring, kind, compassionate person, let alone an MD. Oh, except my deceased son!!! She was understanding, thorough, and her MA, I think? Was as kind and caring as the Physician. I am a BSN, Retired. Anyone who thinks they can see a new Internal Medicine or Family Practice Physician in 10-15 minutes, is mistaken. She has to go over all of your paper work. Your vitals, and she is the sweetest Family Practice Physician I have met in my 60 years on this earth. I would recommend her to anyone. Just one little thing bothered me, the Receptionist, was not very talkative. I noticed she did not have any teeth. Odd, for an Office. I pray she is waiting to have a beautiful smile from her Dentist. Dental Ins. in this country is 100% outrageous. I hope to see her give me a huge beautiful smile someday. Thank the entire Staff and Doctor for helping me.

Dr. Ramalingam is very thorough and cares for her patients. She is worth the waiting time. I recommend her very highly. Unfortunately, insurance dictates how much time the doctor can spend with each patient, due to how much each visit is worth.

She begins as a great doctor but about six months later she begins treating you like a number and rushes you out during your appointment. Was told recently that I was allowed 2 issues per visit and if I had three or more to schedule multiple appointments. She over books herself (3 people per appointment time every 15 minutes) always take a day off if you have an appointment it can take up to 3 hours to be seen for ten minutes. They are now good at putting you in a room to wait those hours instead of in the lobby because patients were complaining to each other about how they are switching doctors.

Doctor is good, love Sue so understanding and helpful, makes it more bearable with the extra long wait time. She is a good doctor but seems to take staff for granted

She is the best thing that ever happened to me! I absolutely love her! Yes, sometimes the wait time is a long time, but to me, it's worth it. I understand that emergencies happen, both professional and personal! The newer staff is very helpful and explain the delays, offer you water, a chance to reschedule if the wait is too long. Sue is the best thing that has happened to that office! I did like Kim, the nurse, and I miss her, but I realize people have to move on. Again, I don't mind the wait time when it happens, because she is a caring doctor, that sees her own patients when they are in the hospital. That's a big plus for me! I'll be with her forever!

Dr. Ramalingam has been my doctor for the last year and a half. I really appreciate her careful attention and excellent communication. Her staff is very friendly and helpful.

Best doctor around! She takes time with her patients unlike so many doctors who are only concerned about quick turnaround times so as to maximize incoming $$$. She puts her heart and soul into taking care of her patients and my sister, nephew, friend and I are blessed to have her as our doctor. We are all really busy in our days but when it comes to our health, wouldn't you prefer a doctor who will slow down, actually listen to your needs/issues and together come up with a game plan? I know for our family, there is no better doctor.

Wait times are insane have waited over an hour in waiting room then another 45 in the office so overall it was over two hours staff is somewhat rude but she takes time with you when you finally get to see her which is part of what slows her down but they also double book appointments if the wait time wasn't so bad it would be a good review but I think I will be changing docs if you dot mind waitin she is very nice and professional

I think she is a fabulous dr. Caring ,concerned, knowledgeable and listens to what you say I believe she is a 5 star dr

You will wait a MINIMUM of an hour past your appointment time before even seeing the doctor. The staff are highly incompetent. We have been seeing her for over 2 years and it has been this way from the beginning. We will be finding a new office.

She isn't a bad doctor, but she is way overbooked. Her current staff is not so great, she used to have a lot nicer staff. Expect to wait at least 2 hours past you appointment time if you visit.

Rude staff but the doctor is nice. The lady Sue at the desk was unbelievably disrespectful to me over the phone and when I tried to tell her my concerns about my appointments she ignored me at the office. I was scheduled on days that they were not even open, and then scheduled a half month later after my prescriptions ran out.

Bad staff and doctor

Good doctor, great staff, if you have a problem she will get to the bottom of it. If she can't or doesn't know she will send you to someone who's specialty is to find out. It doesn't matter if its the first appointment in the am or first after lunch or anywhere between you going to wait . Get used to it or find a new doctor !! I 'am looking now

I was referred to Dr. Ramalingham by a friend. She happens to be a good 20 minute drive from me. From the first visit, I have had to wait at the LEAST 45 minutes AFTER my appointment time to see her. She does a good job with explaining things, BUT after having to wait every time for way to long in a PCP office, I don't find her office to be very time conscious. Also, Ive had a previous issue with my heart. Recently I have begun having symptoms again. I called her office because I need a referral and needed to see her first for it. After having seen her about it, she requested a test be done and that would help her figure out what type of cardiologist I needed to see. Had test done approx a week later right in their office by a company that comes in to do it. I ended up setting up a followup with her without thinking about it. About a week before my followup with her I called the office asking why this followup was necessary because ultimately I need to see a cardiologist not her for the situation. The receptionist and I went back and forth on why I should see her again and why I would rather just have the referral and get to the point of my issue. Ultimately I ended up seeing Ramalingam for a second time regarding the test results and talking about a referral AGAIN. An unnecessary appt but I complied. I waited for 1+ hrs in the exam room. Having an appt time right after lunch this surprised me. It also made me feel disrespected. I had called the nurse in at about an hr wait and asked if I needed to reschedule. She told me she had one more room to go into before me. WHAT?!?!?! Also told me I should wait since I had waited that long already. Once she came into my room (5 minutes later) She rambled off my results, told me where she was sending me, and opened the door to finish her diagnosis and what she would write me for RX, with the door wide open as she was leaving. Personally, I think that is rude. She never asked me if i had questions. Never gave me a chance to even approach her about anything concerning that appt or situation. She MIGHT have spent 5 minutes in there with me. She told me her nurse would call to set up the appt at the Cardiologist. I waited 2 days to hear from them on when that appt was, and when I called to get that info, they put me on hold for 5 minutes and then picked up and said "we are setting it up now". wow. wow. wow. Ive worked in a doctors office before and I know exactly what a GOOD office does to help a patient. This is not a GOOD situation over at Ramalinghams office. Also, I had an RX i started from her after the second visit. I felt like I was having an allergic reaction (not enough for an emergency room visit) but enough that I thought they needed to be called. Receptionist took my info and what was happening and said she would let Ramalingham know. Got a call back hours later from the receptionist telling me Dr changed my RX and it would be at pharmacy. NO questions from a nurse, NO call from the Dr, no NOTHING concerning my actual allergic reaction type symptoms. Just, here.... take this instead. Didn't feel like this was accurate AT ALL!! I don't recommend this doctor. LOOK ELSEWHERE!!
