What People Say About Dr. Deepak Vadhan, MD

For the past five years Dr. Deepak Vadhan was my Primary Care Physician (PCP) and during that period I suffered many health complications, including Two Strokes; a series of Vasovagal Syncopes; Sleep Apnea and a Bradicardia with the implantation of a Pacemaker. Dr. Vadhan was always at the front of the specialists that took care of my health problems. After everything I have undergone, I have no doubt about his Capabilities and his Disposition to look for my best health solutions. I have now moved from NY State to Pennsylvania State. Unfortunately Dr. Vadhan can no longer be my PCP, but for there reasons stated above, I'm giving him a Full Recommendation as a Magnificent Doctor and his Wonderful Staff, for the services they provided me. Jose R. Cambero. January 21, 2020.

My exam with Dr. Vadhan consisted of a spirometry. He went over my results with me and explained clearly what was going on. I was misdiagnosed by another pulmonologist and my primary doctor with a serious lung disease which I now know I do not have after seeing Dr. Vadhan. I feel much better both physically and mentally since I went to see him.

Dr. Vadham and his staff has treated my husband and I in a very professional way. We are both up in years with several health conditions that come with age. Dr. Vadham knew exactly how to treat our breathing, heart and arthritis problems. We are feeling very well thanks to Dr. Vadham and his kind staff.

I’ve been searching for a pulmonologist for two years now, and every other doctor failed me until I met Dr. Vadhan. Both he and his staff are incredibly friendly, polite, and efficient. It is clear that Dr. Vadhan is very diligent and well versed in his field, as his appointments are quick and straightforward. His treatment worked for me within the day— something no other doctor was capable of doing. He also has multiple offices within the city making him easy to reach. I highly recommend him!

on Jan 21, I was preparing to go with my husband for a follow-up visit when my mom told me that my younger sister had an asthma attack the night before. When I heard, I was startled to say the least, considering that my sister has been suffering from asthma since she was 4 yrs. old. The staff as well as Dr. Vadhan took her last minute. My sister (who is now 33 and a health nut) for the first time was breathing better and has a follow up to find out what are her triggers. Thank you Dr!!!

Our 87 year old Mother needed the care of a Pulmonologist. Mom was weak with a recurrent cough and severe wheezing. On our first visit to Dr. Vadhan he examined and diagnosed Mom. Our visit did not feel rushed; Dr. Vadhan took his time with our Mom asking us questions and listening to our concerns. Dr. Vadhan is extremely conscientious ; he ordered x-rays and cat scans In addition, he placed Mom on antibiotics and a nebulizer. Dr. Vadhan and his staff are exemplary. Dr. Vadhan is the best.

FINALLY, I believe I found a caring doctor! Dr Vadhan took his time with me, LISTENED to me and we started our plan of attack today. Two breathing tests and a medicine later, I feel much better today than I have in three days! Read his reviews and couldn’t agree more. Thank you Dr Vadan, Lisa (his aide) and the rest of the ladies there today for being treated with dignity and respect.

From the moment I called to make the appointment the receptionist already made me feel at ease. I cannot begin to stress enough to you how amazing my experience was. Dr. Vadhan is courteous, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He made me feel comfortable enough to trust him and I honestly feel better already. He took his time and explained EVERYTHING to me in great detail. I learned more today about my diseases (COPD and asthma) then I efer had. His staff are top notch professionals

I was very pleased with my Pulmonologist Dr. Vandhan. Because of my history with Lung Cancer I need to be a hard critic. I am truly grateful for his professionalism and awareness. Thankfully I am now using the proper inhaler, I learned I have sleep apnea and am using a very comfortable C Pap machine for sleeping. I can honestly say he has improved my quality of life. Grateful to have such excellent care close to home.

He's exceptional. My mother's primary doctor of 40 years retired so we had to find a new doctor. Went through an exhaustive list of doctors and decided on Dr. Vadhan. He has a wonderful bedside manner, has multiple board certifications. Very gentle with my mother and patient. He will listen to your concerns and address them properly. Jennifer and May Ling are considerate and do a great job of assisting the doctor and running the office. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Vadhan.
