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.

First visit
Since this was my first visit, I wasn’t sure what to expect but everybody in that office was super nice no problems whatsoever and the doctor himself was very pleasant very knowledgeable. He seemed to pretty much figure out what my problem was right away and this is a problem that I have had for a long time and other doctors haven’t picked up on it so I would definitely recommend him.

Doctor Gade was recommended by my wife.
My visit was a consult, he was very considerate and explained his process and what my next steps would be. I left a different cardiologist because of the wait times. Dr. Gade’s office is very well organized wait time was minimal. Such a difference from my former doctor.

Saved My Life
I was a new patient for Dr. Gade. Because of my age, medical history, and type 2 diabetes, he decided that I should have a repeat heart cath (I had one about 15 years earlier for an intermittent abnormal heart rhythm). I thank God he wanted to do the procedure. I had three obstructed coronary arteries! He literally saved my life and I am forever indebted to him. Dr. Gade is intelligent, caring, and astute.

I love his manner and positivity towards me!
Every visit has been extremely positive, and my visit last week was no exception! Not only is Dr. Gade friendly and supportive, but he speaks to me in manner that I can understand and he allows for questions and if I can't think of any, he will do the asking based on why I was into seeing him, and this will spark my memory as to what I needed to ask or get clarification on. His staff working with him is also outstanding! The nurse taking my information and the nurse giving me my EKG, were so friendly and supportive, asking me questions and allowing me to answer in my timeframe and with my additional questions or comments included and giving me the feeling that I am the most important patient and they are there to accommodate me! When I deal with the front office staff at check-in or to schedule my next appointment, they have always been so helpful and caring, taking the time to explain everything to me and to make sure that the dates and times are ones that fit for me! Thank you!

Terrible
Dr. Gade made me wait an hour and a half because he said I checked in at 3:00 (my appointment was at 2:15.). This was absolutely not true as I checked in at 2.32, per my email receipt of payment. I truly believed my appointment was at 2:30! He literally walked in to tell me that and when I disagreed with him, his whole attitude changed and he became short with me and reluctant to speak to me about a heart test result. He tried to belittle me! I couldn’t believe it and I couldn’t wait to leave! When I finally walked out, he walked towards his staff where I proceeded to hear laughter! Never have I ever been so uncomfortable in a doctor appointment or so upset afterwards! Be warned: if you’re 15 minutes late, he will put you at the very end of his schedule and have a total attitude with you. I do not recommend Dr Gade!!!!

A true professional
Dr. Gade is very professional. I’ve never had to wait long to see him for an appointment. He is patient and takes the time to explain what he sees and the reason for his recommended treatment. I also see a much older general practitioner for my overall health. Dr. Gade works with the prescriptions assigned by my other doctor.
