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.

Friendly Dr, but substandard
Not very knowledgeable, sometimes friendly until you catch her is a serious mistakes - DO NOT RECOMMEND.

She saved my life
I just want to say this! Dr Bailey changed my life forever! In 2017 I had a beautiful little boy that I didn't even know I was pregnant until an hour before I gave birth! Unfortunately do to labor my heart was crashing! When I finally got to Chattanooga my heart efraction was at 15% Dr. Bailey didn't treat my as if I was only a patient! She gave her soul to help me though! I was told my son may never know me! And that they couldn't guarantee me that I would get to celebrate his first birthday with him! I was handed a beautiful gift and basically a death sentence! Dr. Bailey refused to allow me to face that alone! She fought for my life and gave me the courage to do the same! Dr. Bailey I hope this reaches you! It's now almost Nov of 2023 andi saw you in Nov 2017! Because of your drive and determination I am still here! My efraction is now standing strong at 55% and I have another beautiful baby boy who is 17 months old and I had no heart issues during the pregnancy! Ty for saving me!

The Best
Dr. Bailey listens and explains. She educates. She went the extra mile and ordered an MRI that was more accurate for my issue, and by doing so, discovered that my Mitral valve regurgitation was worse than the Echo had previously showed. I trust her knowledge and expertise.

In my opinion, there is not a finer heart doctor in Chattanooga, or anywhere else for that matter. I've had several doctors try to get my blood pressure to stabilize with no positive results. Within 30 days after switching to Dr Bailey, my blood pressure could not be better! Thank you Dr. Bailey. Bill A. Dalton - Ooltewah, TN

This was my first visit with Dr. Bailey, and I found her to be exceptional. Dr. Bailey was very personable, she took interest in my situation she reviewed materials that I brought to her from previous Cardiology testing and I was very happy with her service. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cardiologist.

Dr. Bailey is magnificent! She has published extensively in professional journals and authored chapters in textbooks. Being Chief Resident and Chief Fellow and then being invited to remain on the faculty speaks volumes about her clinical and educational talent. She is a superb communicator, kind and responsive to questions where I feel valued and receiving the best possible care. I am fortunate and blessed that she accepted me as her patient. I trust her completely with my cardiology care.
