Thomas A. Gardner's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Gardner is an angel in disguise!! Not only did he save my life, he also has the BEST bedside manner I have ever had the pleasure to experience. Cancer is very scary and the multiple surgeries he performed on me were very serious. He always makes sure I understand what is being done. He takes the time to answer all of my questions and my husband's questions too. Most surgeons are rush rush rush hurry hurry hurry. Not Dr. Gardner, he will sit right back down and face to face answer our questions. He has a great staff but sometimes they are not as on top of things as Dr. Gardner is but a slight bit of irritation (Over calls not being returned in a timely manner or not at all for instance. ). Dr. Gardner is WELL WORTH it. I prefer dealing directly with him because trying to get a message to him through other people can be difficult, ( Personally I think it is a case of "Too many cooks in the kitchen ruin the stew."). I would recommend Dr. Gardner to family, friends heck, anyone with a urinary tract . Thank you Dr. Gardner and the entire surgical team!

Dr. Gardner is AWESOME!!!! He fixed a big problem which another hospital created! I cannot say enough great things about him!!!!

Outstanding doctor when no one else could handel my problem he could. And i am talking Cleveland clinic and all of the major hospitals. A truly gifed and nice man i would recommend him to my own children.

Very knowledgeable. Took time to answer lots of questions. Impressed upon me how important it was to come to follow appts and watch the mass growth. I have had a few run ins with his Carmel office staff. It seems they cannot make test appointments correctly. They gave me times anddates to show up for tests but when I got there No one knew i was coming

My husband had a good experience with this skilled physician in 2008. He was thorough in explanations and the surgery went well. No return of the cancer.

I have been waiting for an update and call for a refill for 3 weeks now. After weekly attempts...they refuse to reply to my voicemails. Very poor service

MY BROTHER HAD CANCER AND FIRST GOD AND DR.GARDNER AND DR ROBB SAVED MY BROTHERS LIFE,, AND WE WAS TOLD IN BLOOMINGTON HE WOULD NEVER MAKE IT IN SURGERY AND THIS WAS 8 AND HALF YEARS AGO ... SO I WOULD TELL EVERYONE TO GO TO THESE 2 DR.S THEY ARE THE BEST

I carried a tumor at the bottom of my spine ,inside of the S2 peripheral nerve for seven years. I approached neurosurgeons with it the whole time. Each time was told no I'm not removing it, it's stable. I was falling down, peeing down my legs, and suffering like no other. This doctor was the only one with the courage to take a chance on me. I was to the point of being very hard to deal with. Ican run, dance, workout and am trying to catch back up on my life. Thank you Dr. Gardner.

While I liked Dr Gardner when he saw my 83 year old Dad due to bleeding. I have some big issues. He scheduled a CT scan for the same day and told us he would call with results and if he didn't call to call him. I have called every day for the last 8 days and was told that the receptionist was paging him to ask him to call and once she told me she had personally put the request in his hand. We have received no calll. Would he want a Dr to treat his Dad this way? I bet not.

Dr Gardner was faced with an unusually large prostrate resting on the rectum and blocking the bladder from functioning properly. Cancer removal was the goal of the surgery. The biopsy showed Cat. 9 cancer in 3 quadrants. Thank you Dr Gardner Goal accomplished, very difficult surgery!! Extremely Grateful, you have a God given skill!
