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.

Today is 30 March 2023 and my appointment with Dr Badea was at 2:15 pm. I got to the office and checked in at 2:05 pm. It is now 3:30 pm and I'm still in the waiting room waiting to be seen. If I had gotten to my appointment late they would've canceled my appointment, but what should patients do when they have to wait hours past their appointment time? The receptionist is rude and unprofessional, they have no explanation and they're the ones scheduling the appointments. You come to your appointment on time, wait two hours or more to be seen and is seen for 5 minutes or less, then your insurance is billed from a tremendous amount for a 5 minutes visit with the doctor. I will let Tricare know and request to be transferred to a different doctor, because as a veteran this is ridiculous. Patients are over booked for the same time and is forced to wait for hours. The staff needs consideration of others training as it seems that they're just there for a paycheck and don't really like and take pride in their job

Dr. Badea is good, but his staff is a very serious liability. We recently learned that my mother has a serious heart condition, the symptoms of which were dismissed as "fine" by the PA. We have not been able to get basic care for her because the staff do not return calls when we request help with medical problems, or seem to care when their elderly patients have been sitting on bedsores in their waiting room for over an hour to see the doctor. In fact, when I asked, after almost 2 hours, if it would be much longer before my mother could be seen and reminded the person that she has bedsores that she'd been sitting on the whole time, she yelled at me, telling me that the doctor has other patients and would be in when he decided it was time. If you have a serious or life threatening condition, please read the other reviews here and in other places for this practice, and go elsewhere.

I went to Dr Badea after leaving the practice 3 years prior. My 1st experience was awesome! The wait was less than 15 minutes, the staff was courteous and dr badea took his time and answered all my questions, made me very comfortable with the life changes I will be making. I'm very happy with this practice.

The absolute WORST office staff. They are rude and act as if they run the the show. My79 year old mother had a 9:15 am appointment and because the office manager scheduled a mandatory meeting, she decided she could override the doctor's decision to see my mother. After 3 tris in the building and over 2 hours later she still has not been seen.
