One week ago today this man operated on my wife. The negative things others have said seems to be true. They told us one thing before surgery then something completely different the day of surgery then nothing at all after surgery. To this day we still don’t know what he has done to her. His office specializes is creating chaos and undo stress. To say they are mismanaged is probably an understatement. They have been NO HELP at all since the surgery. This week has been a nightmare! All they have done is add to our stress. Do yourself a big favor and stay far away from this office. You can thank me later.

Dr. Abodeely took me on an emergency basis on Friday morning and fixed my surprise hernias with laparoscopy and superglue by Friday evening. He was kind, knowledgeable, efficient, warm, witty, skilled, and understanding. Having unexpected surgery is not the ideal way to end a vacation in gorgeous Saranac Lake, but if you have to, I cannot recommend wonderful Dr. Abodeely, beautiful little Adirondack Hospital, or its friendly staff more. I was in agony and now I’m fine. Thank you for the TLC. I hope never to have to see you again.

Doctor Abodeely is a Wonderful, caring, and smart Doctor. Rare to find in this age of medical care.
He is my husband's and my doctor. The staff are also outstanding and kind and very helpful.

I'd trusted the specialist, but I should not have. Not in this case! Ten months after my laparoscopic cholecystectomy, my symptoms, never "typical," are still so much worse than before, that I wish it were possible to "undo" the surgery. A new, painful hernia + back injury while in OR & dramatically worse belly pains, nausea, vomiting and bowel problems, were all disregarded even after PCP's re-referral. No follow up! He'd said gall bladder removal offered a 90% chance of relief. NOT SO!

Dr Abodeely listens, does not talk down to you. Explains all the different situations that I have had to deal with my Family. I highly recommend him to all that are having different GI problems...both upper tract and lower tract.

I believe that he is professional and competent. His office does not possess good organizational and record keeping skills and their customer service is terrible.
I had questions on my last procedure that no one in his office could/would address adequately needing to follow up with him. I never heard back until I had my insurance company call him. Their lack of decent record keeping caused a routine procedure to be processed as non-routine, costing me, literally thousands of dollars.

My experience with Dr. Abodeely has been great I have been suffering from my medical problem for many years as I got older it has worsen. Dr Abodeely has been working with me for a couple of years and is working very hard to help me increase my quality of life,he is very understanding and caring. His office staff are the best. When I need them they are always there for me. He has not given up on me and is continuing to help me . S . Rabideau

Dr. Abodeely is not the MD who you want as your provider as he has a hard time remembering what he told you the last time he spoke with you & as a result, you feel like you're being lied to. His bedside manner is far from kind and even if you're not on a HMO(Hurry Me Out) Plan, Dr. Abodeely has no time for patients who refuse to go home less than 24-hrs after being in the ICU for multiple days. If you need a surgeon with great post-op care & compassion, ask to be seen by Dr Michael Hill @ AMC !
