Dr. Baranowski was so professional and demonstrated a level of expertise and caring that I have never before experienced as a patient. It is very clear Dr. Baranowski cares about his patients. He listed to all my questions, with direct eye contact, and answered all my questions and concerns in a logic and done to earth language that was easy to understand. Definitely a five (5) performance. After over two years of dealing without a diagnosis for my heart condition, I feel that Dr. Baranowski has developed a diagnosis and treatment path that will hopefully address the issues.I will for certain recommend Dr. Baranowski to others.

Initially I was unsure if the appointment was going to be set up. Because it was done over MyChart instead of them calling me, it was a bit more challenging to find a mutual time. It turns out, they Schmitt at a time that the doctor was not available (and never is at that time) so I waited planned my day around waiting online for 45 minutes without anyone coming online. The doctor finally called me when he was available (45 minutes after it was supposed to begin, 15 minutes for chart review with a nurse that never happened then the 30 minutes that was supposed to be the doctor's appointment).
Reviewed on Feb 27, 2024
I was also scheduled for a chart review 15 minutes before the doctor visit. A nurse never came on. I arranged a very early morning at work unnecessarily because the video chat happened later because of a scheduling error. Also, if there is not going to be a chart review, that's fine but don't put it on the schedule then my time is as valuable as yours.
