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.

My mother went into the hospital to had surgery on a blocked artery in her leg, it was only supposed to be just a simple day surgery. While trying to perform the surgery they ran into some complications. The artery was too block so the could not put a stent in the artery, however,they proceeded to push the camera all the way through which released some of the clogged artery into her body.They stopped the surgery at that point, and reached out to Dr. Bradford to figure out what to do next. He recommended doing a Triple Bypass Surgery pending she passed a stress test on her heart. After she went for the stress test I asked for him to give me a call so I could for one know if she even passed the stress test and also to understand the risks and benefits for such a surgery. No one called me, getting a hold of this doctor was seemingly impossible. I barely spoke with her the morning of her surgery,as I asked had he been by to see her since the day I asked him to call me she told me no he had

Dr. Bradford saved my fathers life! My dad had a massive heart attack with 98% blockage on one side of his heart and 70% blockage on the other side of his heart. He need emergency open heart surgery and my entire family was terrified. Dr. Bradford came in and introduced himself to the entire family, he was very pleasant and didn't speak over our heads like most Doctors do. I have a MASSIVE family so we can be intimidating and he was patient and answered all of our questions. He even allowed my dad to pray over his hands. As a man of faith, that was very important to my Dad. He came to see my dad multiple times after the surgery just to check on him and followed up with him twice after he was discharged from the hospital. My father is literally a walking miracle and without God and Mr. Bradford, I don't know if he would still be alive today. Dr. Bradford is truly AMAZING and I highly recommend him. Thank you Dr. Bradford!!!

I wandered into the ED at the hospital thinking I pulled a muscle. They ran tests. Three days later Dr. Bradford introduces himself and says he wants to open my chest and fix some problems. The way he introduced himself and talked to me I didn't even feel anxious. He sat with my family and explained what he had planned to do. His bedside manner is so gentle and caring that I was not even worried. He stopped by before on the day of the surgery and answered questions and he was did not do the standard wave and swipe that most doctors do. He made sure that I and my family felt safe and secure before my surgery. He stopped by my room more then I expected while I recovered and even stopped by again when the reports of my activity were not as he expected. If you ever need to have a surgeon open your chest and make you feel comfortable about it. Dr Bradford is the best surgeon in this area to fix your heart.

Dr. Bradford's office practice is broken and unable to maintain a schedule. My last two attempts to see the doctor had to be canceled after waiting for an hour or more. My previous office visits where I actually was able to see the doctor were all at least 2 - 3 hrs late.

Dr Bradford is so unreliable. You have to wait over 1 1/2 hrs. in his clinic to see him because he only sees patients one day a week!! They can’t schedule in a timely way because he is so backed up. We all know surgery makes more $ and that’s what he’s out for. The clinic is not important to him. When we finally got in a room he had 3 interruptions and could barely focus on the patient. Then finally, on the day of surgery, the patient was shaved, IV in, labs done, then it was cancelled b/c od Dr

Dr Bradford did a great job on my mom's surgery. I would highly recommend him as a surgeon if you are needing a heart procedure. The low star rating is for his office staff with the after care. The appointment was made for a certain time and 45 mintues and counting and still sitting in the waiting room. In 45 minutes I've seen one person go in and one come out. The staff is not friendly. When we arrived and signed in, it was 15 to 20 minutes before anyone in the office acknowledged that we were

I can give nothing other than 5 stars for Dr. Bradford. Dr. Bradford removed a mass from an area behind my throat. It was not an easy place to get to but he removed the mass and in doing so apparently was able to go around much of my muscle tissue because I experienced only a small amount of pain that was predicted. He did a wonderful job and I highly recommend him.
