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.

Highly recommend

Dr. Sanjay Batra, M.D.
Everything about my experience with Dr. Batra was top notch. My family and I were so impressed by his knowledge and skill, as well as that of the entire valve replacement team. From pre-surgery consultation to open-heart valve replacement to post-surgery hospital care, and to follow-up appointments, Dr. Batra and his team were outstanding. I highly recommend Dr. Batra to anyone considering cardiac surgery.

The Best
Dr. Batra did open heart surgery ( double by pass and repair a valve). At first when I learned I needed open heart surgery I was really scared but after meeting with Dr. Batra he put me completely at ease, after surgery his staff were the best always making sure I was doing okay I really can't say enough about him and his staff.

Dr Batra is a phenomenal heart surgeon. Very happy we decided to go with him. He is a very knowledgeable and compassionate doctor. If anyone needs heart related surgery, we will highly recommend they have a consult with Dr Batra before going to anyone else. Plus he has an excellent staff working with him at McLaren Flint.

Dr. Batra and his office staff were very professional, from the initial consultation to the surgery all the way to my checkups, they have been great! Dr. Batra is informative and a very nice man. The clincher for me was , a friend who is a physician, told me that if he or anyone in his family needed heart surgery Dr Batra would be his choice. Thanks again!

I would definitely recommend Dr. Sanjay Batra to family members ,friends or anyone who asked! He is kind, friendly and took time to explain what he would be doing. I’m not sure what more I could say other than ‘ I trusted him with my life and would do so again’ Donald Aortic valve replacement and a dual bypass 6/1 /22
