Dr. Thaichan Jobalia, MD

Dr. Jobalia has NO bedside manner. She completely dismisses any input from the patient or caretakers. She has NO personality and her office staff seems VERY miserable. She makes you feel like you are an imposition. She is supposed to be a Geriatric physician- but her demeanor suggests she has NO interest in helping older patients. My mother-in-law used to go to Jobalia by herself and would complain about her. Then we accompanied her to several appointments - my MIL had just cause to complain. Once we dealt with Jobalia for 2 appointments - we found another "real" Geriatric Dr who is very skilled and very personable. I wouldn't recommend my worst enemy to Dr. Jobablia!

I would not only never recommend Dr. Jobalia, I would never return to see her a second time. Since she appears to believe she knows everything, she is not interested in learning anything beyond a brief list of her questions. She is not a geriatrician but appears to believe that her interest in the subject is sufficient to call herself one.
