I have to say that in reading some of the reviews I was hesitant to go to this DR but I went anyway. I have found almost nothing on this site to be true. You may have had one bad experience but not everyday is like that. I was promptly greeted, given my paperwork, brought into the room within five minutes and Dr. Bader was there about two minutes later. We talked and he examined me for over 20 minutes. He was exceptional and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. His Medical Assistant was very friendly, another young woman walked by me and said hello how are you, the Secretary was very friendly and I encountered the Office Manager talking to a patient in the waiting area, I was acknowledged and she went back to helping the patient. I think this practice, Dr., PA, and staff are wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a better Dr.

The BEST doctor with the WORST OFFICE STAFF IN EXISTENCE. Dr. bader is an expert physician. His receptionist is an expert b*tch. She ignores calls, handing them off to the ignorant message service. She refuses to forward or return calls. She will tell you Dr. Bader cannot be seen, instead referring you to his teenage medical assistants. Are you sick? In pain? Do not call on a Friday, you will get no help. The only way to deal with this staff is to appear in the office in person. She has a harder time ignoring you when you're in her face.

I have been a patient of Dr Bader for many years. I have always & continue to find him knowledgeable and accurate in his diagnosis. He is compassionate, honest and kind. His front office has improved greatly in the last few years.

Staff is so rude, told an elderly women to reschedule when being 8 minutes late, and told wpman she didnt want to hear her excuses why she was late. Dr Bader needs to know how poorly his front office is being run.

Very frustrated. I'm a new patient, and I agree with the comments. Front desk staff is not very friendly. Their phone handling is the worse. If you want to call, there's nobody answering only recordings, if you press "0" for the operator there's a recording saying that the mailbox is invalid and not to leave a message there. I left a message in Erin's assistant voice mail two weeks ago and she hasn't returned my call, when I called back to let them know I haven't heard from them, they transferred me back to the voice mail of the person that never called me back. I hung up and immediately tried to call back and I got their answering service. I don't understand why doctors waste money on answering services... they never know anything. I never got the results of my physical, and I never got the referral for the reason I went there in the first place. Nurse was friendly, so was Erin, but that's all the positive I got from my experience. I don't know if I want to go back.

Dr. Bader is a very smart and knowledgeable man...I would recommend him to anyone who needed a specialist. He took his time with me and explained everything that I needed to do regarding tests.

The first appointment was easy to get.Staff in the office had lots of piercings and tattoos. Had to wait for more than 30 minutes to see the doctor because he was "busy" (what's the use of the appointment, then?). He rushed me out the door after only 10 minutes, didn't bother to listen to what I had to say. made a quick diagnosis and gave me prescription drug. I wasn't doing well because of the drug and my wife called to schedule another appointment with him asap. The person who answered the phone started yelling at her and finally hung up on her; they even put a comment on my file that my wife was rude to them (!). I find those receptionists to be the rudest, most disrespectful and arrogant staff I have ever encountered. They seem to forget that they deal with people who are in pain and instead of showing compassion and understanding they don't miss a chance to show an attitude. Never going back to that place again.

Who is Dr. Bader? I've been a patient for 5+ years now and never met the guy. Calling to schedule an appointment is painful. Leaving a message for the "doctor" is never reciproated. Have been pretty sick for weeks now (5) and have been calling to be seen, and have never once called me back. I had to see another doctor unrelated to my illness to read my blood work. Absolutly obscured. Went into his office to speak to him personally and he had the audacity to send in a nurse to talk to me. This man can't spear 2 minutes with a sick "patient of his, after waiting 25 minutes in a vacant office?? I quickly asked for my paper work and let I know everyone of my family members and friends who "sees" him to immediately withdraw from his unprofessional so called practice. You would think a DOCTOR would care for his patients!
