Dr. Dormu is maybe the worst doctor I have ever been to, and that is saying something, as I have been a patient in the PG Hospital emergency room. I have never been motivated to write a review about a doctor before, but I just have to warn other people. I liked him through my first couple of visits, but then I came to believe that his work is sloppy, he is just after my money, is a liar, and will not admit when he or his office have done something wrong, even if it is painfully obvious, and no matter how detrimental this all might be to my health. Let me explain:
1. I have varicose veins in my legs, and he convinced me that the clear choice was that I needed to have laser ablation therapy on my legs. He did not suggest that I first just try to wear compression stockings without having the surgery, because he said that compression stockings just prevent the veins from getting worse and do not actually make them better, which after the surgery I learned was incorrect; compression stockings can make your legs feel better. He told me that my veins would get worse and cause ulcers if I did not have the surgery, which I later learned may happen or not, and I don't need to have the surgery at my young age of 34 for this purpose. And he told me that the discomfort after the surgery would be minimal, and the other veins would easily compensate, but I continue to have discomfort over 5 weeks later. I wish I had not had the surgery.
2. My surgery was supposed to be at 10AM, and I have Bible study at 1PM, and I had to drive 1/2 hour to get there. I asked if that was a problem, and he said I didn't need to worry about it, and that I wouldn't need anyone to drive me home. Fortunately, my wife pressured me to let her drive me and to change the time of my bible study just in case, as I didn't get out of the surgery until 12:36, and I certainly did not feel well enough to drive right away. When I mentioned this to him, he said that was not the case with most patients. Well, it is at least the case with some, and he should take a more precautionary stance. But he would not admit to having given me incorrect instructions; he just keeps soldiering ahead in his wrongheaded ways.
3. Dr. Dormu convinced me to buy compression stockings through him, saying that he would make sure they fit me the best, better than I could get elsewhere. My compression stockings did not come in until over a week after I had the surgery (about a month after I ordered them), and everything I have read says that you should wear compression stockings for at least a week after the surgery to aid in healing. This certainly contributed to the fact that I still have discomfort.
4. When my compression stockings did come in, they were the wrong size. I showed him how the heel was back up around my ankle. He said that was normal - the size is not exact. But I thought he would give me the best fit! And how is it compressing fully if there is a little air pocket around my ankle. They also came up well above my knee, even though they were only supposed to be knee high stockings. He said they must have just sent the wrong ones, so he ordered me another pair.
5. I noticed on the stockings that it said they were extra large. I called up the office to tell the secretary that I am not an extra large person; I think I should have a smaller size. She said they are not extra large, they are size D.
6. I went back to get the new compression stockings, tried them on, and saw that they were exactly the same. I realized it says size D on the box, but XL on the inside packaging and the stocking itself. The secretary did not know that D and XL are the same thing, or else I might have gotten the right stockings. I saw Dr. Dormu in the office and complained, and he had me go into an examination room to look at them. He said you are supposed to fold them down if they are too long. But they were so long that if I folded them down, they went all the way back down to my ankle. How is that the best fit? They would look funny and make my legs really hot in the summer.
7. So I went to a medical supply store to get fitted for their compression stockings. I got a size M, not XL, and they fit perfectly. I just need to fold them down a little at the top, and the ankle actually fits at the ankle. Furthermore, they look and feel like men's dress socks, whereas the only ones Dr. Dormu sells are like pantyhose. So much for his stockings being the best fit, the best size, or the best stockings.
8. I went to a new doctor, Dr. Cameron Akbari, who is much better, and does not push me to have surgery.
9. I called up Dr. Dormu's office twice to ask for my money back for my compression stockings, as they ordered me the wrong size twice and were completely responsible for the mistake. The same secretary that didn't know that D and XL are the same thing continued to maintain they had gotten me the right size. I explained that I had gotten a size M somewhere else, and it was correct. She said, "Did you open up the stockings from us and put them on?" I said, "yes." She said, "then we can't give you your money back."

What other business does not hold itself accountable at all when they are completely responsible for harm they cause the customer? I opened the compression stockings because their office told me repeatedly they had ordered the right size. And I trusted them. Guess I learned my lesson. I would not trust one thing Dr. Dormu or anyone in his office says.
I have since learned that there is a business of doctors trying to get you to have surgery when you don't really need it so that they can make money. That's what Dr. Dormu does. I have one compliment for him - he's a good salesman. Maybe he should go sell used cars.
