Dr. Roshan Shrestha

Excellent patient care and bedside manner. Would not trust my care with anyone else.

His communication sucks. Won't give you the time of day. Never schedules any follow up visits with his patients. Case in point, my husband goes in for a bile duct blockage and he places stents. He got scheduled for an appointment two weeks later with another doctor. We assumed everything was ok and this was a routine follow since we had heard nothing from Dr. Shrestha. We find ourselves walking into a liver transplant office and get blind sided with his Cholangiocarcinoma diagnosis. The doctor we saw was floored that no one had talked to us about it before the appointment. He is not aggressive with treatment of patients with aggressive cancers such as cholangiocarcinoma but rather writes you off figuring you won't live long anyways. A very reactive rather than proactive approach to treatment. Waits until you are already jaundiced before scheduling you in to replace biliary stents and you end up going septic because he waited too long to get you in. He doesn't look at the bigger picture of treating each patient as an individual and giving them good quality individual care in effort to extend their lives. Rather, he treats you like a number and acts as though you are a bother to him. And he is the head of the liver transplant team at Piedmont. If you have an aggressive cancer involving your liver and want a competent doctor who will be aggressive with your treatment in effort to extend your life as long as possible rather than write you off as having a death sentence, don't go to Dr. Shrestha or Piedmont Hospital. You are better off trying Emory or the Mayo Clinic. Thanks Dr. Shrestha for your lack of caring and lack of aggressiveness in treating my 53 year old husband, father of 3 boys. Because of your uncaring and reactive approach to treatment of aggressive cancers, my 3 sons will have to finish growing up without their father. Time is everything Dr. Shrestha. You have the ability to extend someone's life and improve their quality of life but you need to slow down and take some time to be with each of your patients to do so. It's too late for my husband but I hope the next patient you take on with Cholangiocarcinoma, you'll treat them as an individual human being instead of like a number. Maybe they will live longer and get to have more time to spend with their family than my husband got to. Rest in peace Michael Hunsaker. You didn't deserve to be treated the way you were treated by Dr. Shrestha or Piedmont Hospital. May other families get better care and treatment who go there in the future.

He is the reason I am alive!! After 20 years of fighting PSC I finally found a doctor and a team that understood this disease had a mind of its own! His Team is the best of the best! I was hospitalized in hundreds of hospitals, on the west coast. Only 1 could begin to have the understanding that Dr. Shresta and his team had. I am now quickly approaching 6 years POST liver transplant! My liver is doing great! Don’t overlook this amazing team because they’re name isn’t highlighted like others! If you do .. you will miss this Doctor and his team! I moved from Oregon to Atlanta after much homework! No promises! But I’m alive today .. because of Dr. Shresta. Forever grateful!

Love Dr. Shrestha! After two failed surgeries at another hospital, Dr. Shrestha preformed my father's surgery successfully resulting in my father being able to return home two days after the surgery. After 3 weeks in the other hospital recovery from the failed surgeries we were happy to have our parents reunited at home. Dr. Shrestha took the time to show me on the xray exactly what he did during the surgery and explained clearly the procedure. Love this man!! He is my hero!! Love Dr. Shrestha!
