Dr. Hemen Padhiar, MD

Listens respectfully. Does not push procedures but leaves choice to patient.

My husband and I have been patients these last few years and have had very good service. I use their portal and the response has always been prompt. Dr. Padhiar and Megan are a great team. We recommend this practice to all our friends.

Dr Padhiar is a wonderful Doctor. Caring and personal. He is a wonderful provider whom I trust

Had my annual physical at the end of July. The good part: Blood drawn, a urine sample taken, Megan (his assistant) listened to my heart and asked me the usual questions. I am a diabetic and told her my daily glucose has averaged 186 for months. She set me up with my next annual physical in a year. It took less than 15 minutes for the full physical (Yeah!). The bad part: My lab results were online a little over a week later. My a1c went from 6.3 to 7.1. My cholesterol was also bad. In the past Dr. Padhiar always called to go over the results. It has been almost 2 months and he has not called. There has been no change to my daily one 500 mg Metformin tablet. I was not referred to a diabetic specialist or a nutritionist. I guess my medication does not need changed, but it would have been nice to have him confirm it. Have joined an online diabetic support group. They told me to take mega doses of Ginger Root and Ceylon cinnamon to lower my daily glucose. Too early to see results.

Dr. Padhiar refused to write a letter stating I cannot be around large groups of people, despite the fact I have an autoimmune disease, because I'm not on "biological agents" (immunosuppressants). This is a doctor who didn't even show up to our first appointment. When challenged, his PA said that getting Covid was like "the common cold" and that "millions of people" have my condition. The staff also doesn't wear masks, unlike every other practice I've been to at Northside and Emory. Stay away.

His office is efficient and professional, but he didn't show up for our first appointment. I have a complex medical history (ovarian cysts, endometriosis, endometrial cancer, an autoimmune thyroid condition, osteopenia, pernicious anemia, a genetic predisposition toward cancer), so he should have been there to establish care. Switching as soon as I can find a replacement.

Dr Padiar takes the time and listens. He is interested in finding out answers and is gifted in this area and has always followed through.

Always reasonable wait time and expert care.

Dr. Padhiar is a very compassionate, knowledgeable, thorough primary and elder care physician who makes himself available when he is needed regardless of whether you have a previous appointment.

Dr. Padhiar and Tracy are fantastic!! Their practice always welcomes new patients and the office is very flexible for immediate appointments. As a marketing director for a senior living community. I always recommend Dr. Padhiar and his assistant Tracy...and so far, all families are very satisfied with their knowledge and personal attention. I include myself as a very satisfied patient, and I always get an immediate response any time that I reach out to them..

Dr. Padhiar takes great care of my mother. He even visits the Assisted Living Facility where she lives. I highly recommend him.

This is a great practice. Very personal. Would highly recommend them.
