Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

NEVER trust Dr Bada to do a gallbladder removal!
Terrible!!!! Did a ' simple ' surgery to remove gallbladder and I wound up in Advent Health in Tampa getting complete bile duct reconstructive surgery because DR Bata 'did not have the proper supplies in the operating room to do the operation properly ' Total disaster along with 10 more days in the hospital!!! Had severe jaundice and pain!

Arrogant and condescending
Does not respect patient input, does not use best practices in ordering testing- requests incomplete assessments that waste patient time and money.

Highly skilled surgeon who is straight up. Recent outpatient laparoscopic gall bladder removal had minimal pain, little to no scarring, and quick recovery. Office staff is kind, responsive, and timely schedules surgery.

So far so good. Great face to face on our initial meeting. Had Procedure scheduled and, was well informed on what to expect, and my pre-op responsibilities. On the date of the operation, even with the "Rona" stuff going on, the surgery center was very well coordinated. Checked in and waited to be processed on the "OR." Had Procedure and rolled into recovery. Someone told me all went well. Then I was walked to a lobby to await pick-up. Wife got me, scheduled a follow-up and off we went. A bit impersonal as the doctor did not address me as I awaited start of procedure. But his staff was very supportive. It is run like a mill and while that doesn't bother me, others might find it off-putting. Overall for me: in, procedure, recovery, out. Not bad. Of course I received good news. Had the outcome been bad news, I would have wanted a different approach from the doc.
