Dr. Bryan Darger, MD

Multiple visit(s) over the last decade. Lied (without question!) about my “regular” labs & MRI. This man is the kind of physician that will sit through your tedious explanation of poorly understood symptoms, say something transparently reassuring, then wander to the back & roll his eyes. He upholds a clear social bias against patients in seemingly less opportune economic positions than himself. Not only does he misdiagnose, he has no reservations openly and loudly discussing with other staff members about his personal annoyances & plans to remove patient x y or z with shockingly offensive remarks & smears. I strongly suggest NOT trusting this man with your health.

At the ER I had severe abdominal pain, which he questioned from triage to discharge. I looked at my test results later online, there were not only irregular but very concerning polyps and obstructions throughout several organs throughout my abdomen where I had been experiencing excruciating pain. And the whole time that night at shift change in the ER he minimized my symptoms, didn’t make eye contact when he told me my labs were normal (they weren’t— I actually had to get an urgent blood transfusion the following week—no joke— because my “normal” labs ordered by Dr. Drager were at 6.9, at least 4 whole units below acceptable range). What a nightmare. I live a block away from that Emergency Room and drive 30 minutes for emergency care. Never again.

Judged me for visiting the ER. Charged my insurance $1109 for 10 minutes of his time and a simple lab test. Avoid this doctor at all costs!

Very good

One of the most judgmental, disgusting doctors I've come across in my LIFE! Recently out of medical school & decided that he was going to treat my 64-year-old mom like a drug seeker after she fell on a curb straight down on her left arm. She tried coping w/o medical attention for over a week but, decided today she couldn't go another night without sleep. This doctor said, after making her wait 3 HOURS for a simple xray, that he was not going to give narcotics for a "brusie", not only minimizing her excruciating pain but, demeaning her & chiding her as if she was a junkie off the street. What is the deal with doctors treating patients like they're scum when a patient is in pain? I called, talked to him & asked how he became a doctor, to which his retort was, "I went to medical school!" I asked, WHY did you become a doctor? "To help people." What does the hippocratic oath say, I asked. He was pissed & asked if I had further questions. Negligence at its best! Thank God for attorneys! ????
