List of Douglas R Salmon's Reviews
Awful to say the list. The office manager is a very uneducated person. I have an issue that cannot block my nose or (O2 issue) so my mask is not completely blocking my nose. The manager asked me to leave because I cannot wear the mask properly!

Dr. Salmon failed, in a most profound way, to provide timely medical care during my stay at the hospital. Even the hospital staff warned me that he was notorious for failing to treat hospital patients in a timely manner. When he finally arrived to see me, over 6 hours after my stress test was completed, he did not apologize for his delay. Rather, he actually said, "it's not my fault." My recommendation is to keep looking for another cardiologist and if the hospital.assigns him to your case, to refuse to have him as your Healthcare provider.
(It is not possible to give zero stars but one star is too generous). I cannot recommend Dr. Salmon ... period. As a hospital patient he was non-responsive, untimely, and frankly unprofessional. It was 6 hours after my stress test before he deemed it appropriate to communicate with his patient. When he finally arrived, he introduced himself and then stood there and texted for 2-3 minutes before addressing me. When confronted by his unprofessional behavior he did not apologize but rather said, "it's not my fault." The sad thing is, I had been Warne day no less than 4 hospital staff that he was horrible about timely treatment of hospital patients. If the hospital professional staff knows there is a problem why does the hospital continue to let this doctor practice in their facilities? Why assign him as a attending to a patient if you know he neglects his patients. Reject him as an appointed cardiologist if you're in a hospital setting.
Office staff is not caring. They lack in making a patient feel comfortable.
He gave me a clean bill of health in 2001 when others might have went in and done alot of unnecessary work. Very professional a wonderful doctor Smart man!
Dr. Salmon is treating my Dad in the ICU. I am impressed with his knowledge and expertise. He talks a little fast, so I have a hard time keeping up with what he is explaining to me, but he is patient and the best thing so far about my father's stay at Seton Hays County.
Dr. Salmon is awesome. He has been my cardiologist for 17 years. I started under him in 2001 when he saved my brother with a major heart attack. In the emergency he prepared us that he might have 30% chance of survival, shortly he informed us he was going to pull through. Since then, he is the doctor for my family, my husband's family and many friends. He truly cares and I feel the test he orders tell him exactly where we are with our heart condition, and helps him stay on top of any potential problems. I highly recommend him as a Cardiologist and he truly cares about each patient. Love the staff.
Dr. Salmon performed an emergency procedure for me in 1998 and has been my cardiologist for annual checkups since. Now past 80, I am considered to be in excellent health, with much of the credit going to Dr. Salmon.
Dr. Salmon is a very good Cardiologist. He always takes time to visit with me at length about critical issues I experience. I have visited several cardiologist in the last ten years and no other doc has treated me with the quality care and attention that I need. I would strongly suggest Dr. Salmon.
