We were at the Shrader Road office, and saw Dr. MURKHUJEE. He was condescending, cold, rude, and…read moresaid his office staff "didn't know what they were talking about" He had no desire to help us, no compassion, and actually sounded as if he no clue what we were talking about about. His office staff was lovely by the way, as was his PA, who I honestly think knew more, and was embarrassed. I could never recommend this group.

I had the UFE (uterine fibroid embolization) procedure on July 30, 2021 so I've given myself enough…read moretime to leave a well informed review. I've been struggling with the horrible symptoms of having fibroids for a few years and was in desperate need of some relief. The constant bleeding and painful cramps was taking a toll on my emotional and mental state. I went to a local OBGYN and had an ultrasound to evaluate how bad my fibroids were and to find out if there was any kind of treatment. They immediately encouraged a full hysterectomy due to my age being over 40 and not wanting to birth more children. I asked if there were any alternatives to losing my uterus, in which I was not ready to part with yet and they told me that was my only option. I was very hesitant and they were ready to schedule the surgery. I decided to put the hysterectomy on hold until I did my own research. the doctor was too excited about taking my uterus and it made me super uncomfortable. During my search, I stumble across Richmond Vascular Center. There were no reviews so I was going in blind. i read up on the UFE procedure and saw that I could keep my uterus so I scheduled an appointment immediately! My first appointment with them was very reassuring as it confirmed my hesitancy with the OBGYN office. I indeed had options and the hysterectomy didn't have to happen if I didn't want it. I'm so glad I trusted myself!! The staff was very kind and I met with Dr. McLaurin and he said that he would be the one to perform my procedure. He was very warm and kind. He explained everything in great detail and even mentioned that it's not 100% effective but it does have an 85-90% effective rate so I was willing to take the risk. They did and ultrasound of my wrist to check my veins to make sure I was a candidate or they would have to go through my groin instead to perform the procedure. He said they would insert a catheter in my wrist and inject these beads that would stop the fibroids from growing. I was a candidate for the wrist and that made me happy. They scheduled me to return and prescribed some meds that I needed before returning and after. Procedure day was smooth. Dr. Mclaurin asked what music I wanted to listen to during the procedure and I said "Sade". He replied, "great choice!" They started with the sedation and got started right away. I didn't feel anything during and the rest was history. They wheeled me back to recovery where the discomfort started after they reversed the sedation. Whew! The pain kicked in just as described and they explained how long it would last. They were upfront and on point with everything. I went home that day and started the recovery process. The first couple of days were rough and honestly I'd do it all over again for the results I'm having now that I'm post 5 months; almost 6. I no longer bleed or cramp and I can feel that my fibroids are shrinking. They helped me so much and I'm so glad I took a chance on this office. Anyone I know who suffers with fibroid issues I have recommend they come see why I'm so happy. Dr. Mclaurin gave me my life back and I'm so grateful for him and the staff!

Not exactly a huge fan of this place and I believe anyone who plans on involving this care team…read moreshould see both sides of the coin before they flip it. everything seemed pretty routine for the first couple months, but then they all of a sudden needed me to be coming in alot more , no real changes in me , but in order to get my heart meds I needed to come in. I explained to them that since having a heart attack I've lost employment, lost my vehicle , and life is pretty tough ...along with no longer having a car seat because the last one was stolen off my front porch it makes it hard having a my child , who needs a car seat to ride, and i have her basically 24/7. So how am I supposed to swing this?nothing else was was said other than , well Mr. ( Omite my name for obvious reasons) We are going to need to see you in the office in order to refill your meds . All of my meds qualify for 90 day supply so why am I having to come here so frequently? So now I'm looking at my pharmacy app and these folks have stoper perscribing my Nitroglycerin High blood pressure meds Blood thinner Statins Now Im no doc...and far from a rocket scientist but I'm almost certain it's EXTRMEMELY dangerous to stop taking my high blood pressure med and blood thinner abruptly ..not advised. Yet there it it in black and white prescriber denied refill requests ( 3 times ) Sooo the medication I've been taking for over a year is now far too dangerous to prescribe ? I feel it's much more dangerous not to prescribe ...but I've not attended med school ...so that's not fair to say. But the meds I take are common everyday prescribed 1st line medications . Nothing exotic or needing to be monitored like warfrin or anything like that. Anyways I hear great things about this places and the doctor I see...but I guessi just got the short end of the stick on this one .
