Best Pediatric Hematologist Springfield Near Me

Patricia Sigman: I requested for my Dad to be moved to hospice care 2 weeks ago. Instead of doing that Dr. Tammula said he was not ready for hospice and continued with useless Chemo when my Dads pancreatic cancer wasn’t even found until end stage. Today we have hospice care only after sitting in a stale Emergency room for 15 hours and a dr who had met my dad one time put us on hospice immediately! I requested on the phone and in person and was denied the right to dignified and peacefully and responsibly rest and leave this life. I wouldn’t recommend this office to anyone. Dr. T has nice nurses but unfortunately nice doesn’t matter when impending death is on the table. Over reaching in terminology never actually telling patient outcome and pretending that chemo is working when it is not and having knowledge of the same. It would appear that lining his pocket and not patient care is his top priority.Updated 2/12/2021My dad died at home at 12:41 pm on 2/11/2021 No hospice care. Because this Dr. failed to listen or care as his family begged to be transferred to hospice in a timely manner. Such a disgusting display of power and greed. This is not a new dr and I’m without doubt that he knew based on medical evidence that my father had very little time to live. We stayed in our local Emergency Room until I loaded him up and came home for him to go in peace. I pray no other patient would be subjected to such a terrible display and lack of compassion.

Angel Dean: Dr. Tummala and the nurses go above and beyond to take care of my Dad. I would highly recommend them.

Chris Morris: The doctor and staff are curtious professional.

J Turner: We first met Dr. Tummala after my mother's doctor moved away. However we have been nothing but impressed with his concern and compassion with her diagnosis. Her condition is considered rare (200,000 cases in the united states). She was placed in a clinical trial and has exceptional results from the trial. It has not been easy we have had several hospital admissions due to anemia he personally visits her most days during her admissions, if he does not we see one of the associated doctors. They are all exceptional. A cancer diagnosis is hard but having a GREAT doctor makes the hard days easier.

buttonnut: Could not ask for a more caring or professional doctor and staff. He never leaves the exam room until he is sure all our questions have been answered. He and his staff are very kind and on top of the needs of my husband .

Ryan Condon: AVOID THIS OFFICE AND THIS DOCTOR!Very poor communication. He misses appointments, does not follow up, never returns calls after repeated attempts to contact him and his office, and his staff is very callous and unfriendly. It is highly irresponsible and reckless to not respond to a patient dying from cancer. He and his staff are heartless and unprofessional. PLEASE avoid this office and save yourself the stress and frustration of being ignored and mistreated!!
