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.

Pompous, robotic
Worst physician visit I’ve ever experienced, pompous, robotic , communication / thoughtfulness toward patient non existent, not me !! I’ll find a cardiologist who cares !

Poor billing practices and unnecessary procedures
I was seen by the physician because atrial fabrication was discovered by a pre-surgical EKG. Dr. Gadodia prescribed medication consistent with this condition. He then said that I required a nuclear stress test and imaging in order to better diagnose any existing heart issues. These tests were done but then not paid by Medicare. Seems the coding submitted with the claim indicated that the tests were not medically necessary. Seems the doctor thought so but he coded the procedures such that Medicare deemed them non-covered. Seems I signed a form saying that if Medicare doesn’t pay for a procedure then I will be responsible. Now I’m stuck with a bill I never anticipated. My wife had the same procedure 1 year ago and all was covered but because the diagnosis code was different on mine - I’m stuck. This may be technically legal but certainly deceptive as none of this was explained to me prior. Stay away from this office - there’s better out there.

Undoubtedly the worst "bedside manner" of any doctor I've ever encountered! Had a heart attack & he was the one that was called in. No idea who he was.Two stents first surgery, but couldn't finish "the job" because of dye in the kidneys.Two weeks later, scheduled to finish "the job" at a different hospital.Not put to sleep.Screamed out in pain at one point & was immediately knocked out.First post-op visit to his office I had trouble wearing the mask (when COVID hit).Nurse took my hubby and I to an exam room & told me to take off the mask.Dr comes in,looks at me (no mask),at her & she said I told her to take it off as she was hyperventilating.He(the SOB) told me I needed to see a psychiatrist to get help for my problem.Sets me up for the second surgery to"finish the job". I have been suffering with pain in my back for over 2 years.At that post-op visit he told me to see a different kind of dr-he takes care of heart only! New cardio cleaned/removed scar tissue from previous stents.

A VERY UNHAPPY PATIENT WITH THIS ?DOCTOR! – Feb 16, 2023

Worst Cardiologist EVER!
On Aug 12th, I suffered a "massive" heart attack. I was rushed to the Melbourne Regional Medical Center by a neighbor because it was only 5 min away. The experience I underwent there I hope no one ever has to ever go thru, hence the reason for this review. Unbeknownst to me, Melbourne Regional doesn't have a regular Cardiologist on staff, so they called in Dr. Gadodia who took almost an hour to get to me although his office is a mere 2 mi away. Before he got there, I had been begging the techs surrounding me for pain meds and none of them would do anything for me until one of them (in an effort to shut me up) gave me some aspirin to chew on... with no water. Once Dr Gadodia got there, they hooked me up with 8 MG's of Morphine while the doctor tried to install a stent inside me. The pain was still unbearable and became more intense when the doctor began slapping at my groin. Apparently, it was because he had somehow managed to kink the stent inside me and couldn't get it back out. So wh

SORRY! Just can’t recommend this doctor at all!
This man did stent surgery on me when I was taken to the ER having a heart attack. He got the job done, that’s about all I can say about this man. Follow up visits showed him to be VERY RUDE & definitely lacked any kind of BEDSIDE MANNER! Could not recommend him to anyone!

I arrived 20 mins before my appt. I left after waiting an hour in their waiting room and getting no helpful or accurate response from the staff. I will not return. Too bad there is no way to bill a doctor for wasting the time of patients. I should have read the reviews first. Needless to say I will be notifying my primary to not waste my time with doctors of this ilk.

Would not recommend this doctor. What others are saying about his rudeness is on point. Sure, he is very matter of fact. I can appreciate that. However, this goes beyond that. He will not listen to anything you have to say and will only answer a few questions. You as the patient are always wrong. No matter what. He talks into his Dictaphone about your issues, which by the way he has no solutions, and sends you on your way. Also, if you ask about getting the Covid vaccine, he yells at you, why haven't you already received it?? Do you want to die?? Needless to say, we are moving on.

I had been seeing Dr Gadodia for over 3 years and was told to schedule appointment with my Cardiologist after having been in ECU for 5 days for internal bleeding. I explained that to the young girl that answered the phone the earliest she could give me was 41 day later.Asked to talk to a PA was told they will call me. After talking to a PA and again explained I need to see the Doctor in the next 3-5 days was took the earliest date would be 18days from now, but I could call back every few days and see if there a cancellation. I started looking for a new cardiologist by the end of the day I have an appointment the next day at 1145am. Dr Gadodaia is always over booked but is still taking patients. He only spends 5-10 mins with you when you can get appointment and has the same repeated montra “You need to join a Gym, lose weight, stop eating any thing with salt.” He needs to replace some of his office staff the girl that answer the phone or professional and rude. I would not recommend th

He is basically incompetent. His expertise is memorizing what he learned 30 years ago + using what the standard of care that pays him. Very bad doctor with no desire to learn the best techniques. Horrible!

Dr. Gadodia is a very good doctor. Not only does he treat high blood pressure and other cardiac issues, he does interventions (stents and angioplasties). Not all cardiologists do this. He always is straight forward with what should be done i.e. if you need to quit smoking, lose weight or lower salt intake, he will say it and people think he's being rude, which is not true. He's just being honest.

His idea of communication with a patient is: I am the doctor. I will tell you what to do, and you will do it. He refused to listen to anything I said about my blood pressure.

Basically, this man was very professional and thorough. Basically, he saved my life. My only concern, was some people might confuse his matter-of-factness with being rude. He's a physician and he's just getting to the point of things. Once I got past that I realized he's extremely competent and treated me very well.
