Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare: I have always wanted to be a physician since I was a child. Helping people, especially those in under-served communities, has always been my passion in life. What I want my patients to know about me: I come from a large, Indian family and am the youngest of four sisters. I was recently married. What I enjoy most in life is taking care of my family, friends, and patients. What I do when I'm not seeing patients: I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.

I was a patient of Dr. Rakhi Singh for 5 yrs and I do not recommend her to anyone anymore. I finally found a medication that helped my pain for the 1st time in 5 yrs - lidocaine ointment. Dr. Singh had been telling me for the past 5 yrs to use 2-3 over-the-counter 3% lidocaine patches per day (which are over $60-90/month before sales tax) instead of prescribing me 5% lidocaine ointment that my insurance would cover for $0/month. I've complained that the patches haven't really helped in years, but they're all I have. I've also suspected lidcaine toxicity symptoms while using the patches, so I stopped using 3 patches per day, which Dr. Singh assured me was fine and dismissed any concern of lidocaine toxicity with the patches. When she finally did write me a prescription for lidocaine ointment and it turned out to work so much better than the patches, she refused to write a prescription that allowed me to use the ointment every day "due to concerns about lidocaine toxicity"...even though she thought it was okay for me to use twice the dosage worth in patches and pay for them out of pocket. So then Dr. Singh canceled my lidocaine ointment prescription entirely, took 2.5 weeks to even get back to me, wouldn't take my videocall appt because I said I could hear her, but not see her over video (yet she said she could see and hear me perfectly). When I finally got ahold of her, she had a conniption about me asking for more lidocaine ointment and said she was dropping me as a patient effective immediately and will abruptly cut off ALL my meds now. I got Patient Services involved and they assured me she couldn't do that and she had to continue writing my prescriptions until I transferred care to a new pain management doctor, no matter how long that took. When it was time for a refill and I was all but out, the pharmacy informed me that Dr. Singh still canceled my prescription anyway and when I called Patient Services again, they said there was nothing they could do because there was no longer a prescription on file. They told me my only option of continuing my medication was to run to an Urgent Care.
