Neera Bhatia MD, PA

I love Dr. Bhatia. I am active duty military and was not satisfied with my prenatal care on post so I simply Googled and saw very good reviews on her. My first visit was great. She took the time to ask me questions and explain everything to me about how she wanted to help me during my pregnancy. She is very knowledgeable and caring. The ultrasound tech is a sweet lady as well. She actually talks and explains what she sees, unlike other places I’ve been. Even the residential students are very nice and respectable. They asked if I felt comfortable with them being in the room, which I did. I’ve never had a problem or complaint during any visit. I’d recommend her to anyone seeking a good OBGYN.

When I first became a patient here, everything about this office was delightful. However, with time, I have found the service now suffers. Prepare to be solicited a wide variety of services upon entering the office, everything from teddy bears to lipo. The office now seems cluttered and uncomfortable by all the extra sales-​pitches for services to lose weight or get rid of cellulite. I was given my exam results in a break-​room/​kitchen near an open bag of some else’s Doritos. While on the exam table with my legs in stirrups, a stranger I had never seen before entered the room and asked to get something from a drawer directly located under my legs. The woman who collects payment is not friendly at all. In fact, she acts like I’m interrupting her day because she’s so busy. The sonographer is an elderly, retired woman who made several typos and mistakes when typing in my info on the sonography machine. She had to delete and correct her mistakes several times on the machine. This did not make me feel 100% secure in her abilities. I now visit a new OB office. Sorry. I know this will not be perceived well by the office. However, I have to be honest so other potential patients are informed.

Easy to find, parking sucks, but that is probably my only bad thing to say. The Doctor and the Doctor in training were fabulous. I was told I may have PCOS, she was informative, but did not scare me with information. She formed a game plan to find out what was going on with my body, and we are following it to get me some answers. I have never had a Doctor be so helpful, and I really appreciated that. I think I have found my new OBGYN.
Her staff was super friendly as well!

The office was terribly busy and the whole experience took me 3.5 hours for an annual check up (3 hours waiting, maybe half hour with doctors/​nurses). They never called me back with test results and she bluntly dissuaded me from getting the procedure wanted. She did not provide desirable alternatives. Also the privacy is minimal. Her student was very helpful, but when working with Dr. Bhatia, she didn’t even do what the student had written down for me. I will not go back. It has been two weeks from my appointment and I have called twice to hear about my results and they have not called me back.

Great doctor. She had a fountain of knowledge and keeps up with the last medical updates. I recommend my friends to her and the staff is great! Definitely feel comfortable. I am currently pregnant with my 2^nd girl and she also delivered the first.

Rude receptionists every time I call and visit. Always on hold for a long time that seems unreasonable to me. I work in the healthcare field myself as well and expect better. Dr. Bhatia herself though is a wonderful doctor, but her team is not helping her business in my opinion

So I was completely fine with this place until today. I received a bill 2 yrs after my visit because they told me I was in network when I wasn’t. If you go, be very careful and definitely check because a random bill could show up 2 years later. They did tell me I was in network, but obviously they didn’t actually check. Perhaps I should’ve checked and not trusted them, but it would’ve been understandable if the bill came within 6 months after the visit, not 2 years. That is just really bad bookkeeping and bad business practices. Facilities were Okey. I’ve been to better. They did send the bill to my mom instead of me which had confidential information on it, so if there is something you don’t want someone to find out, I’d avoid this place. Even though it was addressed to me, my mom is going to open it because I haven’t lived there for over 2 years. The only reason they had that address is because it was the primary care holder address and they used that instead of my address. It was Okey for me, but if I had something on there I didn’t want anyone to see, then it could’ve been really bad. The staff that I spoke with over the phone were pretty dismissive and condescending in my opinion. Perhaps my situation was just random and maybe they are Okey in general, but I would be cautious.

Dr Bhatia has been my gynecologist for nearly four years. I drive to the other side of town and way out of my way to see her. When I first met her, I was not impressed with the office because she is in an old office building… Office Décor is not a great indicator of a doctor’s abilities and if you think this, you will miss out on the absolute best doctor I have ever had. Because I am a busy professional driving out of my way is not good for me, so my first visit was under duress as I didn’t want to be there. She was patient and said to give her a try. If I didn’t like the experience she would refer me to someone else… Fair enough.
I am older so I have no experience with Dr Bhatia as a baby delivery doctor. My experience is strictly medical for post child bearing years. Since going to Dr Bhatia for massive periods that just would not stop, I have had Novasure, Esure and currently am enrolled in her BioTE Hormone program. When getting prepared for the Novasure procedure, Dr Bhatia noticed I had a blood pressure issue. She called me at home from her personal cell phone the night before the procedure to check on how my blood pressure was doing. She was concerned enough to have the anesthesiologist call me. After careful consideration and monitoring, the procedure eventually was done but that one act of caring is something that no other physician has ever given me. Who calls their patients at home to check on them in 2014? No one. Most of the time if anyone is checking on you its a nurse or staff member. She did it personally.
I have been to many doctors and I am not easy to please. I am a very picky person. Dr Bhatia’s staff is always kind and friendly to me. Fitting me into their schedule is not always easy but they make it as easy as possible. The office may not be new and full of fancy furniture, but it is clean and all the medical equipment is top notch and up to date. Dr Bhatia is always looking for the newest techniques. Having Novasure was a great alternative to a hysterectomy. The BioTE hormone treatments are doing a marvelous job for my hormone imbalance at the onset of menopause. I am grateful to Dr. Bhatia for suggesting it. I’m no longer moody, crying all the time, being a nasty person, having hot flashes, no random facial hair growing, no drugs to take, and my periods are a thing of the past! Whoopie!
With the new regulations coming with the Affordable Care Act, many good doctors are leaving their practices because they cannot afford to take patients with many of the insurance contracts out there. If she doesn’t take your insurance, it’s not the Dr.‘s fault, its just the contract of the insurance company and the politicians, but that’s another story. Doctors cannot control the insurance companies. They can only refuse to take the contract.
I highly recommend Dr. Bhatia to anyone wanting a great doctor that you can really talk to and build a personal relationship. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and personable and has never been rude to me, nor has her staff. I’m not sure why some of the other patients have written what they have but I can only guess they were just having a bad day or they might have caught Dr. Bhatia on a bad day. None the less, she is a great doctor with a great deal of knowledge. Doctors are rarely judged as to whether they are good or bad by their bedside manner or by the age of their offices. They are only judged by their records. Instead of relying on Unilocal to find a physician, I might suggest
which is the link for the Texas State Medical Board. You will find that Dr. Bhatia’s record is impeccable.

I would like to be able to give a review on what I experienced in Dr. Bhatia’s office, but twice my appointments have been canceled. She has an online tool in which you can schedule appointments. I did that on two different occassions and received e-​mail confirmations that my appointments were scheduled. I then made necessary work arrangements so I could see the doctor. I requested the time off at work, waited approval, arranged for someone to cover me by rearranging work schedules, etc.
After all this I got calls saying that the doctor was not, in fact, available the times I scheduled. I don’t understand the point of this tool if the doctor does not update her times of availability. Her employees did not know what was going on. After they called me they said to come in at a time different from the ones that were confirmed via e-​mail, without explanation. I told them I had scheduled different times than then ones for which they penciled me in. «Just come in at a different time anyway!» As if rearranging a work schedule is that simple for everyone. It wasn’t until after some questioning that the lightbulb went off and they figured out what was happening.
I can’t trust someone with my health if they can’t run an office in which employees can perform the basic task of scheduling.

I have been a patient of Dr. Bhatia for around ten years. She is not just a professional… that word is far to cold and uncaring for her. She has the knowledge and experience to be considered a great doctor, but she has a huge heart which makes her an exceptional person that I am proud to have as my gynecologist. Who brags about her OBGYN? I DO! Why you may ask? In addition to helping me stave off cancer (which I owe her my life for) she found that the birth control I was on had some newly discovered side effects. Because she stays current and on top of the journals and studies, she found that I was at risk for low bone density. She told me that I needed a bone scan. My insurance company said I was ay too young to need a bone scan but that did not stop her. She told me that if the insurance wouldn’t cover the bone scan then she would pay for it herself. Dr. Bhatia is one of those rare doctors that truly puts the patient first. Yes, at times you will see doctors other than Dr. Bhatia there, she helps to mentor new doctors, if you get one take it as a compliment, because you are now helping that doctor as much as they are helping you. If ever you feel uncomfortable speak up. One time a male doctor stepped into the room instead of Dr. Bhatia. I politely told him and Mona (one of the nurses on staff) that I don’t feel comfortable with a male OBGYN, they understood 100% and made it right. Not only is Dr. Bhatia wonderful but her staff is also sweet and caring. Every time I go in to her office I look forward to hearing the fab trio of Angie, Mona and Angie (yes, there are two Angies) greet me by name. They are always smiling and no matter what the procedure, they all keep the patients spirits high. At Dr. Bhatia’s office you are not a number, a paycheck or an insurance claim, you are a person with thoughts, feelings, questions and many times fears… voice them with full assurance that Dr. Bhatia and her staff will do everything that they can to make sure that what is best for you and your health happens. Thanks to them I am living breathing proof of that.
