Ratings and reviews
Overall rating
based on
patient ratings.Comments
excellent health care service and very courteous staff...
Dr. Baddi was already scheduled for regular visit when the need for cancer surgery arose and he needed to give cardiac clearance. His participation in pre-surgery prep was fine. Nurses and petty bureaucrats at Irving & Western facility were rude, obstructionist and abysmal in phone communications. Pre-surgery prep should NOT include unnecessary stress such as this, need to turn to other physician's assistants to seek help, get authorizations.
Very relax and tot he point, well explain from greeter, receptionist, nurse and doctors.
Dr Battie is good.
Just talking to him is good
very good experience. very knowledgeable very much satisfied
I think I like Dr Baddi, his manner and personality.
Dr. Baddi and I have a 15+ year experience. Believe me, he would not have been my doctor for 15 minutes if I had any doubts, issues, or communication problems between us.
I felt relieved after the doctor talked to me about my health and condition.He explained the corona virus precaution the hospital is undertaking.
Good experience.
I appreciate that Dr. Baddi takes time to go listen to any questions that I have and responds in a way that I can understand. I also appreciate that, even though I know he is very busy, I never feel rushed in and out.
The best cardiologist I have ever seen in my life.
This provider is very good in his field. He saved my life by providing excellent to heart surgery on me four years ago hence I am a life today. I don't have any issues, I feel fine. Long attended to on time and most efficiently.
it was my regular yearly visit. it is always my pleasure to see Dr. Baddi.
I love Dr Baddi. I feel part of a team.
I just love Dr. Baddi. A great doctor who listens, and cares.
Always very good.

Dr. Baddi has been my cardiologist for many years. I travel over fifty miles to see him.

It was a pleasant and productive appointment.
The doctor was very nice (as usual) and to the point; He is very comfortable and easy to work with.

Excellent as always.
My visit with Dr. Baddi was good, we discussed further testing that might be necessary. Dr. X had spoken to him earlier in that day to inform him of my symptoms. Both top notch physicians that work together for the patients well being.
Dr. Ajay Baddi is truly an exceptional doctor.
Great! Dr. Baddi and I discussed the reason for my visit (I was referred to him by another doctor) and the options available. I left the office completely satisfied and confident that we agreed the right thing was done.
Very easy to talk to, always feel comfortable with him

Overall good experience I felt like my concerns we're heard and addressed
Dr. Baddi is very compassionate and warm and works with us, patient and caregiver, spouse to make sure prescribed meds are effective and reassures us that patients general health is good.
The wait time was not longer than 15 min. but not excessive - The intake RN was very compassionate, thorough and detailed.
I'm one hundred percent satisfy with Dr. Ajay Baddi. Plus there was another doctor also I can't quite remember his name. It goes like Dr. X so please excuse me if I didn't get his name right. Again I'm satisfy with my visit as well. Thank you very much.
Dr. Baddi is very kind, very specific in explaining my questions. I feel very comfortable discussing my health issues.
Always a pleasure to see Dr. Baddi.
Dr. Baddi is a phenomenal physician.
He seems to genuinely care about me and finding solutions to health issues
Been seeing Dr. Baddi for 14 years. It's been basically follow up visits after angioplasty at another facility
Dr Baddi is awesome. Thank you
Good, Really like this Dr.
my visit went very well! I'll let
It was an exceptional office visit, exactly what I expected from my physician. Good questions and answers. Showed concern for my health and on-going expectations for my health.
This cardiologist has been treating me for more than 10 years. Although I'm not in perfect health, this provider has my heart condition well under control.
he was attentive and concerned and let me speak about my issue and came up with a plan that I aggred with
1st time seeing Dr. Baddi as Dr. X retired end of 2018 - Very satisfactory appt.
a kind and comdoctor
Dr Baddi is a great doctor. even with this end of day appointment, I didn't feel rushed. He talks, listens and is always engaged. I wish every physician could have his caring nature.
He was courteous, respectful,and friendly.
Dr Baddi was Excellent. I Would highly recommend him. He took his time, answered all my questions, and gave me great advice and insight into the results of by tests. Best doctor visit i have ever had.
I like him because he understands that I want to reduce the medicine I take for bp
This was a follow up visit. He is my cardiologist and not my Primary Care Internist. HE IS EXCELLENT WITH OUTSTANDING BEDSIDE MANNER. He is clearly knowledgeable and reassuring about my situation. He even manually took my blood pressure to see if it corresponded with the automated BP.
always professional but yet personal.
Dr. Baddi is conscientious and exhibited empathy and concern for me during this visit.
Doctor Baday was very helpful, caring and took time to listen to me . He made me feel very at ease.
We absolutely LOVE Dr. Baddi! he is the absolute best and we are very fortunate to have him oversee my health...God bless him!

I always enjoy my visits with Dr Baddi, I can't say I've had a bad experience with him since he's been my Physician.
Dr. Baddi is a wonderful, caring man. We just love him!
Excellent visit
I looked forward to this follow-up visit, which was also post surgical (back surgery). We discussed the eventual surgery that I elected to have based upon all test results and my primary physicians decisions. Dr. Baddi concurred that the decision made was the best one for me. He reassured me that my medical condition had not deteriorated secondary to the surgery. I have a 6 month follow up appt with him. The doctor was friendly, courteous, and interested in me. He never made me feel that he was busy or did not have time for me.
Dr. Baddi is wonderful intelligent, kind, compassionate.I look forward to seeing him because of how respectful and understanding he is. I am blessed he's my cardiologist. I have recommended him to friends .
always a pleasure to see Dr Baddi.
I am not a big fan of the "mega office" setup at the facility. Although I know it costs the hospital less to run the practice this way, I feel like I get less personalized service. I also worry about getting timely appointments when I have to speak with people who are not on my doctor's staff as they tend to be less empathetic and usually can't "fit you in" when you really need an appointment.
I respect him and his opinions.
very good
