Unprofessional
Waited over 2 and a half hours to be seen. The patients arrived before he did. He asked patient family member if he should do bloodwork. Like aren't you the doctor? Ask patient a question and in the middle of answering, he took not 1 but 2 phone calls. Never listened to lungs, heart or anything . Only took blood pressure. He takes advantage of the elderly. My father will never go back. If you value your loved one, please avoid this place.
Dr. Bhardwaj is a caring and kind Dr. I have been to other pulmonologist before but none are as good as Dr. Bhardwaj. He listens carefully to what you are saying and answers all questions. He tries to give you the best medication that will work for you. He cares about his patients. I would definitely recommend him.
The receptionnes is very rude and unprofessional,she have no people skills, she talk to patents as if she is doing them a favour, no respect and for this reason I don't encourage anyone to go to this place, I hope the doctor see this and get raid of this degrading person from your establishment
Never in USA had a doctor take my vitals himself because he cares too much about his patient and his work that he cannot trust a nurse with correct vitals. I waited 3 hours to see him but he is worth the wait.
Dr. Bhardwaj is one of the most knowledgable physicians I have met. He really took the time to listen and understand my history and medical problems.... He clearly cares about his patients in a way many doctors do not. The wait time is somewhat long (~45 mins/1hr), but it was worth the wait. I would highly recommend him to everyone I know and will definitely be returning!!
