I am raising serious concerns about patient safety, communication, and medical decision-making at Piedmont Newton Rheumatology. I received notice stating I was cleared to return to work and that all prior work excuses were “voided and rescinded,” despite an ongoing, documented medical condition.
This directive came from Dr. Sheth, who was not my treating physician, and the image below clearly shows her response and actions ignoring my medical concerns. This caused significant distress and put my health and safety at risk.
These actions raise serious legal and ethical concerns, including possible violations of ADA/disability protections, patient safety, medical negligence, and HIPAA/privacy laws. Patients deserve accurate, ethical, and coordinated care. I urge this practice to review its policies to prevent harm to future patients.
If this facility continues to operate in this manner, it should not be entrusted with patient care
