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.

< 1 star! You deserve so much better!
He will diagnose you by looking at you. He will be WRONG about the diagnosis! He will treat you based off of his wrong diagnosis! You may end up dead because of his wrong diagnosis and the wrong treatment!!! Ask me how do I know!?

Dr. Babbich is great! I have been dealing with trying to find a new treatment for RA as my previous medication has stopped working. He is not a warm fuzzy guy,. He is a very fine doctor. He has explained every step of our journey to find a new treatment. I have recommended him to friends and he was recommended to me by a friend. I am very grateful. As with many doctors’ offices: if you are worried about wait times go early in the morning. Patients sometimes take more time than was planned.

It would be a zero if I could. In all of my years visiting doctors, I have never had such poor service or treatment! They cancel appointments at the last minute asking me to re-book and appointment with the doctor as well as getting new blood tests because they did not have the infusion medicine for my appointment and my blood tests expire. I did not have a positive interaction with anyone in the office. Finding a better doctor!!!

From. Jack Cover Dr. Babich has been treating my RH for some ten years with very positive results. About 2 years ago he identified a concern with my red blood cell count. Under his care the deficiency was corrected. Additionally, Dr. Babich is personable and a competent knowledgeable physician.

After 12 years with Dr. Babich, I highly recommend this wonderful, caring doctor. He is competent, ethical, highly intelligent. He never rushes our visits, always answers my questions. Also, his Infusion nurse Sandy & his insurance coordinator Tanya are both outstanding.

Fact: Getting the proper diagnosis of Lupus can take patients up to 7 years! And why is this? Because of so called "drs" like Dr. Babich. Dr. Babich was first on the list of rheumatologists I was sent to for a diagnosis. The first (and last!) appointment was awful! I waited for over an hour to see him, then was looked over by having to him point on a picture of the human body if areas/joints hurt and me responding with simple yes or no. One of my biggest problems was my inflammation, but heaven forbid he feel my fingers and hands to really see it! (He told me I just had "large" fingers and hands) Cold, impersonal, and the worst, WRONG DIAGNOSIS! I thankfully found an incredible rheumatologist that listens and correctly diagnosed me with Lupus. Don't waste your time if you are hoping for a diagnosis more than the typical fallback--fibromyalgia!

Worst experience, wish I would have read the reviews 1st, Dr. never reviewed records that were sent with my referral prior to my appt, he refused to review the records while in the appt. He was rude, condescending, no bedside manner, did not listen to anything. He did absolutely nothing for me! I left wasting almost 3hrs of my work day and losing faith in doctors in NC, if this is the care they provide to patients in need of help with autoimmune diseases and still felt just as awful. Don't recommend to anyone

The most despicable experience with a doctor and staff I've EVERY had in my life. I was so stressed when I left. I decided to look at the reviews when I got home and I knew then my instinct was CORRECT. I experienced all the things in all the reviews. 1 He and his staff are rude...They tag team has his nurse poke her head in and saw he is behind 2 He talks down to you 3 he will not let you talk, does not want to engage in conversation as to what your issue. there is much more HE IS AWFUL

I had a appointment yesterday and left feeling like I wasn't heard in regards to my pain. I was told to basically get better sleep and this will help my pain level which I already know will not make no difference at all. I lay awake almost every night just like last in sever pain. I don't know what else to do other than lay here and cry ??. I was told yesterday that I now have Fibromyalgia!!! No pain management nothing...ugh!!! I feel like im talking to myself when I'm in his office.

Dr. Babich is very thorough, asks questions about your condition, and has provided useful advise. He uses a medical stenographer to record patient data freeing him to pay attention to you, the patient. He has treated me for trigger finger and has been effective in his treatment. He is not a "warm and fuzzy" person but listens and responds.

I have been a patient of Dr. Babich for over 10 years. In the beginning he was a decent doctor. He repeated the same goals for me at every visit, it sounded like a broken record. Things got worse until 2014 when we got into an argument. He got mad and told me not to come back for a year. When I returned, I was given a form to fill out about my current symptoms. His demeanor was better. I had filed for SSD and instead of sending my full record they only sent the new symptom sheets I did.
