Dr. Michael Badger, MD

Let me start by saying I do not usually write reviews and I am very respectful of the medical profession. During a past visit, I noticed an error on my chart in which he misdiagnosed my condition. He became very defensive and refused to listen to me or even suggest there had been a mistake made in radiology or by himself. He would not review the current X-rays in my presence from the other hospital provider. Subsequently, specialists have confirmed the error and treated me accordingly. Dr. Badger dismissed my concerns or even say that he would look into his results. Instead, he or his PA updated my chart with the correct information and a note from the PA saying it had been updated He has not seen me since (about two years), sending me to his PA or other staff members instead, which is fine by me.

Annual Medicare review. Overall satisfactory. Dr Badger listened and explained treatments well. He was thorough in reading my health history and his questions and explanations were clear. He offered solutions to issues.

Two words....Absolutely Horrible!! Please select a different PCP! RUDE, condescending, doesn’t listen to patients concerns, unprofessional biased behaviors, patronizing comments regarding past medical treatment (Counseling)! Demeaning and diminishing tone! Basically has no regard for patients feelings. Wife had similar experience with Dr Badger the previous day at her apt!.....Terrible!! Had several apts. at Memorial Hospital with other physicians with outstanding and professional results.

Dr Badger is fantastic. He listens to you and TOGETHER, you come up with a health plan. He explains things simply yet complete. Very satisfied.
