Dr. Padmavathi Veligati, MD

While explaining my symptoms she interrupted me and told me she had patients waiting. Mind you this was my first and only visit to her. I had mentioned that I worked out lifting weights consistently. One complaint was stomach weight gain. She told me I needed to do core specific exercises. I smiled and said, I do. I told her I disagreed saying weight loss was 80% diet and 20% exercise. She told me, I tell my patients 90%. So I’m wondering why she told me to do core specific exercises? Everyone knows you can’t spot reduce. She wouldn’t even listen to all of my symptoms. I left there not being helped in any way. She told me I was too old for hormone replacement therapy. And she was supposed to be a menopause specialist. I left shaking and got in my car and cried. no one wants to go to the doctor and not be heard.

I was very offended at my visit. I was told that I needed to diet and exercise more, and I was get pregnant by a stranger.

Absolutely amazing. I had her as my OBGYN for both my boys. She was only able to deliver one however. Even though she didn’t deliver my first she still constantly checked in on me throughout my stay at mosaic and with my second son I can’t even express how amazing my birthing experience was due to her care for me along with the nursing team. From every single check up I had with her throughout my pregnancy, delivery, and post delivery check up, I knew I was being cared for by the best.
