Robert Batler's Online Review Report Card

After a sudden, possibly serious, health issue I was referred to Dr. Batler. I found him to be caring, empathetic, easy to talk to, professional, knowledgeable and responsive. Knowing I was worried, he was able to reassure me and lighten things up in conversation with me and my husband. He acted quickly to schedule me for a CT and provided an appointment to discuss results immediately following the scan when he also performed a cystoscopy. Dr. Batler was exactly the doctor I needed for a sudden unexpected bladder issue. I highly recommend this doctor to persons experiencing need for a skillful, kind, caring, urologist. Thank you, Dr. B., I am immensely grateful for the care you have provided to me.

This male urologist is completely dismissive of female patients. Even when I only needed an answer to some questions about my urostomy, he actually walked out and left the room while I was still talking. When I went to pay, he was at the desk, and despite his rudeness, I tried to thank him and shake his hand and he just laughed at me and said "Whatever." I would not recommend him to any female.

I had a very nice first visit with Dr. Batler. You can tell he is well experienced doctor. I would recommend Dr. Batler.

Dr. Batler is fine. Seems like he is a professional and knows what he is doing, but you have to have patience when trying to get ahold of a real person for test results. Push this button, push that button, etc, etc. I thought they would call me after my MRI, but after a week I figured out they weren't going to call me, so I called them and had to leave a message. It was 2:40pm and the recording said after 2:30 they wouldn't return calls till the next day.

He is the best did a great job of treating my medical illness.

He is all business. He could smile more but as a Dr he explained things fully as to why surgery was not an option because of other health issues. Good and Knowledgeable Dr. Could smile more

Dr Batler is the rudest Doctor we have ever encountered. Did not like our asking questions and argued about previous treatment that was not administered. We would never see him again!

The first meeting goes okay but after that he treats you like crap. Always in rush and will not let you get your point across. If you have a choice, save your time, and choose someone else since you might have to change.

On Tuesday my family physician found in a ct scan a tumor in my kidney. She told me to call Urology of Indiana and take the first available . The next day we met with Dr Batler. He was wonderful from the moment he walked in. He stayed well past closing time of the office , showed us what was going on, explained in depth everything. We were delivered the news I had cancer, but he went above and beyond! His nurse Stacia called immediately the next morning. They were completely wonderful!!!

Long delays (months) for procedures and followup. Acted as if my condition was incurable. Rushed followup meetings, could not ask all the questions I needed. Abrupt, almost rude. Still had high and rising PSA after surgery, but made no recommendation for next step or further treatment, just wait, which was contrary to all other specialists I consulted. I had to do all the later planning for further post surgery procedures. Altered office visit records. Go get a good oncologist to guide you.
