Olean Family Health Center

Do NOT go to this place ~ the office staff will NOT go out of their way to help you. The wait time to see Dr. Sheikh is at least 2 hours, if not more. He can't seem to keep employees nor Physicians Assistants for more than a few months at a time. If you try to get them to actually do something extra, they will tell you if you want immediate care, go to the E.R. REALLY? That certainly isn't compassionate in my book. I have switched, will never go back, will never recommend this guy to ANYONE, and will forward along horror stories about how this doctor almost killed several people because he doesn't have the time to spend with patients he is spreading himself so thin. Just writes another script....unbelievable. He needs to be investigated by the American Medical Association, Better Business Bureau, all the insurance companies that he bills (many times double bills and falsely bills patients' insurance). He needs to go back where he came from - he cannot cut it here in America. They would not let me post this without giving at least a 1 star rating, which this doctor's office doesn't deserve at all.

My sister is a patient at this facility. She is on disablity and hearing impaired. She has become more ill since seeing a practitioner at this practice. She attempts to voice her side effects to ALL the medications that are given to her, the practitioner disregards her and adds another pill. My main concern is the med combonations for her diabetes. The combo has not been studied or tested. When this was brought to the practitioner, she dismissed the concern as poor education. I find this disrespectful and very poor patient service....perhaps she needs to attend a class on customer service.
