I've never had the opportunity to rave about healthcare, but Walter Tan, Richard Daw, and their…read moreRaleigh Cardiology associates are truly the best in the business for cardiac care. My 87-year old father lives in the area and worked with this team to get through several issues, including the most recent - a new TAVR valve replacement procedure that was amazing. Throughout, this team of doctors showed amazing care both for my dad and for our family. EVERYONE we dealt with treated us as though we were the only people they had to worry about. I can only say it was an unexpected pleasure - especially since I had to come to Raleigh from Atlanta, GA for the meetings and appointments. We highly recommend these doctors and are grateful for them.

I was with with my father for his surgical procedure and post-operative days. He was a patient of Dr. Tan's for a cardiac valve replacement and the service provided by him and his associates was exceptional. They communicated their caring and concern by taking time to make sure questions were answered and they have processes in place to help both patient and family to feel calm and confident about the planned procedure. The pre-operative process was clearly communicated and was coordinated by an RN who assisted my father and I during the several hours of pre-op tests. The nurse arranged a visit with the anesthesiologist, made sure that test results were complete, and communicated with Dr Tan as needed. The anesthesiologist spent at least 20 minutes with us and asked several times whether we had questions. We met with Dr Tan and his nurse practitioner for about 30 minutes and they again made sure that instructions were clear and that our questions were answered. Dr Tan asked for and used my cell phone number to get in touch with me about the latest updates and about any changes to plans. He also urged me to call him any time if I had a question or a concern. He called or sent text messages and also asked each time whether I had additional questions or concerns. One evening he saw me in the hall and turned around to come talk to me and go with me to see my father so he could personally update us on things he felt were important. The Wake Medical Center staff and hospitality services enabled me to relax and get needed food and rest. Thank you for demonstrating how good medical care can be.

It was odd and pointless to wait in an exam room. The front staff should tell patients as a courtesy anytime the doctor is running more than 15 minutes behind schedule. They should offer patients the option to reschedule if the doctor is behind 20/30 minutes or more.

I even contacted my insurance directly and found out my percentage that I was responsible for yet Cary cardiology could not tell me the price of the test. my insurance company also informed me that Cary cardiology did not request an pre authorization estimate for expenses. long story short- Cary cardiologist expects their patients to show up blind- not knowing what they will pay.

Wake med and United Healthcare insurance both SUCK!…read more My wife was in the ED on Sunday with Chest pain. Doc said you can go home as long as you see your cardiologist on Monday. Wake med gave us an appt on Tues. When we went they said we couldnt pay out of pocket and UMR insurance does not accept our doc any more. Wake med solution was for us to go back to the ED.

During my first visit to Dr. Sydney Short's cardiology clinic I had the intake work done by an…read moreextremely competent, polite, professional nurse. Dr. Short entered the exam room shortly after reviewing the ECG, took a complete medical history - carefully comparing what he learned from our discussion with what the paper history suggested. He reviewed my blood pressure record, shed light on the way medical thinking about blood pressure and HBP treatment has evolved and changed over the years - a very telling perspective that shed light on the BP drugs prescribed over time, and diet/liquid intake recommendations, among other things. From the start of the exam, I was impressed with his explanations, his evaluation of the Rx routine I had been following, his recommended changes to that routine. I should note that I was comforted by the first step in his exam: taking my pulse the old-fashioned way, placing two fingers of his right hand on my wrist, and clocking things using his wristwatch. I've booked a follow up exam with his office; I recommend Dr. Short unreservedly.

I called back and the phone was answered with '"hello". I said is this Dr Baillard's Office? I was told yes and then they asked for my daughter's date of birth and an email to send paperwork, I received the paperwork and again I received a phone call with someone talking really soft I could barely hear her and when I call back, I get 'hello"! So unprofessional and downright tacky. I'm already looking for another pediatric cardiologist and have no desire to even try to schedule an appointment.

In my 10 years of living in RTP this is the worst doctors office we've seen. Run away folks. Basically if you care about your child and want them to get the best possible care, this place is simply not it. Staff is terrible. Doctor was unreachable when needed. Went elsewhere and so thankful we did. Stay far away from this place.
