Sherif El Bayadi's Online Review Report Card

Dr El Bayadi has been a extremely good Doctor. I never have months to wait for a appointment like with my family Doctor. He’s very nice and pleasant too talk, he also has a great Staff.

I tried for a full month to get scripts filled for my covid issues and it seems there are too many office issues. Even when talking to the Dr. twice on telemedicine my issues were not followed up and NO ONE followed through. Here it is a month later and I still don't have meds. I finally decided that I would call my PC and all was taken care of in one call. Including no charge for meds under medicare compared to 1G and/or $897.00 at other places. I checked everywhere to try and get meds covered to no avail. If your Dr. wants you on a medication and you NEED these meds. then they should fight for you. I even asked for samples which they didn't have. FRUSTRATION is what I have experienced with long hauler covid without being able to get what I needed from. this office. I have always liked this Dr. but obviously even with patience needed through covid...service needs to be MUCH better.

Supposed to have an annual appointment today.I arrived on time only to have a nurse tell me they aren’t taking any appointments today. No reason given I can only assume because of COVID-19 but no explanation given to me. No one called me to let me know this and I live an hour away. Nurse said doctor stated if I want to walk in hallway I suppose to see what my oxygen level is he will call me on December 7th to discuss. After ruining my other plans for day and driving an hour to get there for appointment I waited a year for HE can take a walk!

This review is about the practice not this doctor. Office staff was the rudest I’ve ever experienced. They need lessons in customer service. If this practice is going to participate in telehealth then they should use an appropriate platform, not FaceTime. They have no way to let you know if they are running late for an appointment or how long it might be before they call you. After waiting 15 minutes for a call, I called the office. The person who answered was immediately irritated. I said that I had an appointment for telehealth and had not received a call she said, it’s just like if you were in person—you have to wait until they are done with the person ahead of you. I asked if she knew how long I might be waiting ? She very rudely said, “ I Can’t tell you that, I’m not sitting in the room with him.” I let her know I thought she was rude and hung up. There are many ways with technology that a doctor could quickly indicate how much longer they would be with a patient.

Dr. El Bayadi started treating me 30+ years ago for Sleep Apnea. every year at 6 month intervals I would have an office visit that involved an x-ray and some breathing tests. About 16 years ago he noticed on an x-ray, that what he had thought was scar tissue from a bout with pneumonia, had grown ever so slightly from 5 millimeters to 7 millimeters, a barely discernible difference. It turned out to be a malignant tumor in my left lung. Within a few weeks, I had surgery to remove it and and to this day I am still cancer free. His professional eye picked up something small that saved my life.

Dr. El Bayadi is a very caring doctor. Doesn't use lot of diagnostic tools to guide his treatment, but makes recommendations based upon experience. Office is poorly run. Too many patients and too little support staff. I'd look elsewhere.

I have been to see Dr. El Bayadi over the past year and I have found him to be VERY Professional and Caring. He listens with an open mind and has your best interest at heart. His staff are caring professionals who help to make this practice what it is today.

I had to wait in the waiting room for two hours, while extremely ill with pneumonia to the point where it was difficult for me to sit up. When I finally saw the doctor two hours later, he sat behind his big desk, on his phone with his son, for 20 minutes trying to figure out how to use his cell phone. The history the P.A. had taken on me was never relayed to the doctor. And then when I called with questions, it took two weeks to get a reply, and the reply was totally unacceptable. He prescribed an inhaler with an ingredient in it that I am severely allergic to. I could have died. Do not waste your time going to this doctor.

Dr. ElBayadi has treated my husband for serious lung disease for several years. He is very professional and effective with my husbands condition. I would recommend him highly.

He is the most understanding doctor I have ever seen. He will not leave you until he is sure he has answered all of your questions.
