Dr. Dana Balderrama, MD

Def needs a refresher in what patient care truly is. Small town “surgeon” with enough ego to fill a landfill. Enjoys listening to himself speak and provide a novel of an explanation even after patient literally just it explained it prior.

Very unprofessional and wasted my time and money!

Just had surgery on my leg which also needed a skin graft. Dr Baldarama was amazing! Super attentive, super informative and great bedside manner. His staff at the wound center is equally amazing. I would whole heartly recommend him to anyone!

I have a trigger finger. The staff was very professional and attentive. Dr. Balderrama was very informative and SUGGESTED several solutions to me. He only advised me which one I should take leaving the decision up to me. I chose the one he suggested. He also has a wonderful since of humor. I enjoyed the visit. Thank you Dr. Balderrama and staff.

He was very attentive and his office staff are so friendly and down to earth!!! Would recommend him to others

DR BALDERAMA WAS VERY DIRECT IN DIAGNOSING MY WRIST PROBLEM , VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD IN EXPLANATION & DEMONSTRATION OF PROBLEM . HE IS THE TYPE OF DOCTOR I APPRECIATE. DIAGNOSIS IS ARTHRITIS FROM OLD INJURY WHERE SEVERAL BONES WERE BROKEN . DUE TO HIGH TOLERANCE OF PAIN WE PUT OFF FUSION & SETTLED ON STEROID INJECTION UNTIL I CAN NOT TOLERATE ANY LONGER. DO NOT UNDERSTAND NEGATIVE COMMENTS UNLESS PATIENTS CAN NOT DEAL WITH DIRECT DIAGNOSIS.

Wow you go to a Doctor to get their advice not sarcasm. Very arrogant man will never go back will go to another Doctor in Kingman or Bullhead like he was to busy I was wasting his time I will contact our insurance and maybe get his attention tell them please don’t pay for that five wasted minutes with him

sarcastic. condescending. Will go back to California to see my hand doctor there.Too busy to listen. answers sincere questions with sarcasm. I saw him in the past. Hoped he had changed. He hadn't. He is only "hand" doc in this town.

Rude

Most arrogant doctor I have ever been too. I was referred to him from another doctor to make sure I didn’t have a tumor or something under my nail. Took a look at it, very condescending and lackadaisical about it and made me feel stupid for being there. I would NOT go back to him. The front office however deserves accolades. They were friendly, thorough and worked to get me in. But I wouldn’t want to work for him. I think I was in there a total of five minutes.

My primary care doctor referred me to Dr. Balderrama because I had a growth on the back of my hand. I had a total of three visits to his office: the initial visit, the removal of the growth, and the follow-up where stitches were removed. I dealt with the doctor and several staff members while there. They were all pleasant, attentive, and gave excellent care. I would not hesitate to use this doctor again if I needed his services or to recommend him to family and friends.

Arrogant and condescending presentation. Dr. made quick diagnosis, recommendations and appeared uninterested in my care. At conclusion of appointment, he left then returned (as an apparent after thought) and asked if I had had an X-ray of the painful limb. In my opinion, 1 star is too generous.

worst waste of time. he treats you like your wasting his time. no wonder we got into to see him so quickly, all his patients knows he is a jerk

I would select 0 stars if possible. My child has a broken hand, and unfortunately this piece of insurance milking trash has no regard for parental/patient concerns. He is an arrogant, complacent pig headed doctor that immediately discredited the fact that he was further damaging our childs hand(over time xrays to prove negative bone movement), forced our childs hand into a strenuous position to try to prove that his hand was healing fine which caused our child severe pain then ignored the child.

Did a great surgery on my wrist very thankful he was available

A meticulous surgeon who had my best interests at heart from start to finish. The abdominoplasty procedure Dr. Balderrama performed on me came out so beautifully well, I cannot thank him enough. Dr. Balderrama's nurse, bookkeeper and receptionist were all so helpful and accomodating to my wants and needs. His nurse Nicky gave me a big hug after my last visit, the bookkeeper Chris had my back on a way to help me save my money and the receptionist was cheerful and so personable. 10 out of 10 thx

Exemplary physician (excellent office staff) who helped me decide for surgery for a Dupuytrens malady that has bothered me for years. The office is quiet and relaxing, one of the best medical office experiences in town.

This Doctor was just awful. From the moment he introduced himself, he was preoccupied and very condescending, He was more interested in finding out what other kind of work he could get out of me instead of taking care of what I needed. When I told him I would be moving soon he completely shut me out. All the while he was sniffing, sniffing and sniffing and bouncing off the walls. It was a strange experience for sure. However, the office staff were very nice and helpful.

I would most certainly not recommend this doctor. He keeps an open door when consulting his patients and every word he says can be heard by other patients in reception area. He is loud and condescending. I found it impossible to relate my concerns and felt I was wasting his time.

Dr. Balderrama was very thorough and professional and explained everything he was doing during the office exam.
