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.

Wish I could give him and his team 10 STARS!

The BEST cardiologist I know of! Other review is n
Dr Bala was the assigned cardiologist when I had my NSTEMI heart attack in May and was taken to IU Arnett Hospital in Lafayette. I found him to be personable, fully capable, interested, a good sense of humor and easy to talk to. He took plenty of time to answer my questions and was fully competent. I have no idea how the previous reviewer came to a poor review. That was NOT an accurate assessment of Dr Bala’s care and competency. Frankly I have not had a better doctor and certainly not a better cardiologist.

I went to Dr. Bala to have my heart checked, but he seemed more interested in a different unrelated disorder. Throughout my appointment, I felt obliged to answer questions that were thrown at me about this unrelated disorder. He frankly left me feeling quite uncomfortable with him. I went to Dr. Bala hoping to get answers about my heart. I left feeling that I was being evaluated for something unrelated to my needs. I cannot vouch for Dr. Bala's competency as a cardiologist. I can say that it was difficult trying to build a positive rapport with him. Also, with the help of some kind, caring doctors, I was able to find some relief for my situation.
