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.

Worst unprofessional medical experience ever had
Condescending, arrogant, dismissive, untruthful in evaluating a problem that was caused by his associates or department; recent surgery. His assessments were questionable and require second opinion, meaning I don't trust him.

Too much in a hurry
Although, he maybe good in his area of expertise, Unfortunately, Dr. Badger was too focused on getting me out, as quickly as possible. Never addressed any treatment plan(s) to prevent further kidney stones. Doesn’t listen well at all. Was condescending, when I asked question's, and when I had pointed out major inaccuracies in my prior visit assessment Final impression, is that he is egotistical and immature in his “bed side” manner or lack thereof.

I would highly recommend Dr. Badger
The office staff for Dr Badger is professional, accommodating and friendly. Each time I have seen Dr. Badger, he is professional, cheerful and confident. He is very easy to talk to. Time was taken to explain a procedure I was going to have, and answer any of my questions, which help put me at ease.

Excellent bedside manner, knowledgeable, easy to get an appointment, timely care and quick call-back with results. As an MD myself, this is the care I hope my patients get from specialists. Recommended to me by other healthcare providers in town as well.

Knowledgeable and caring Physician
Dr Badger has shown an real interest in doing the best thing for my condition. He has a good ear. He's been attentive to my questions and empathetic to my feelings about the treatments. He is also a wealth of information concerning, at least, my condition. Very happy that he was recommended to my by my personal physician.

Dr. Badger, Urologist
Dr. Badger is both professional and personable. He approaches medical care with a strong commitment to the hippocratic oath which is first and foremost "to, do no harm" (or "primum non nocere,"). I always leave my visit feeling confident and reassured I recommend him without reservation.

Follow up televisit
Televisit appointment was right on time. Dr. Badger is very thorough in conducting my follow up visits. Discussions are always straight forward and educational. He answers questions and further adds meaningful content to any "next step" scenerios. I've been his patient for about two and a half years and belive me, he's the guy you want to know for and urological problems.
