Varma, Chandrasekh, Md - Advanced Metabolic Care Rsrch

Dr Bailey in Escondido is a very bright man . At first I was taken back by his shy ness and lack of direct info . But when I had to have biopsies .. I was amazed . No pain and very good proceedure . He is careful and gentle . \r I think he is very smart and taken the wrong way because he is quiet . Yes he should tell people what to except every step of the way . But the bottom line is ..he is a great dr . \r His office can only benefit from the feeback and improve. \r Just know if u really need him ..he is fantastic . Give him a chance and ask questions and demand answers . \r He will be willing to help u in any way he can . Pros: Such a gentle dr and knows his stuff .. biopsies are painless from him ..brillant Cons: Quiet and reserved .. u have to tell him u want info and answers .. more

This office is in total disarray. They do not answer calls, or return calls. Dr. Varma is a good doctor, very good with children and parents.. Dr. Bailey I would NOT recommend. He need to work on his people skills. Pros: Dr. Varma is a good doctor with both children and parents. Cons: Dr. Bailey more

Well, our diabetetic son, who is now 20, has been seeing Dr. Franklin for the past year and a half. Since he became an adult. We have never had a problem. Dr. Bailey and the staff have always been professional. I would recommend him to anyone. Always willing to listen and see where our son was ready to go with his diabetes. Great office!!!!!! Pros: great dr. great staff more

I had the misfortune of being referred by my PCP to Dr. Bailey. The service was simply ATROCIOUS.\r \r I made an appointment approximately 30 days in advance. There were 3 business failures on their part:\r \r 1. My insurance company sent them the special documentation necessary to see an out of network doctor. My insurance company did not have endocrinologist that could see me in the next 30 days, and so allowed a ""gap exception"" where they agreed to pay Dr. Bailey directly. They sent me a letter and CC'd me on the correspondence. THEY LOST THIS VITAL DOCUMENTATION.\r \r No big deal.\r \r 2. They stated they were going to send me an email with documentation I needed to fill out prior to the appointment. THEY NEVER FOLLOWED UP.\r \r No big deal.\r \r 3. They stated that they would secure my medical history from my PCP. My PCP states that they sent this information. They don't have it. THEY LOST MY MEDICAL RECORDS.\r \r THEY LOST MY MEDICAL RECORDS. THAT'S A BIG DEAL.\r \r The rude old lady at the front desk did not greet me, made me wait for five minutes while she made a personal telephone call, argued with me, and was completely UNHELPFUL, completely UNKNOWLEDGABLE, and COULD NOT UNDERSTAND simple questions.\r \r She then had the nerve to ask if I would like to schedule another appointment. Frankly, I'd prefer to live the rest of my life with my grossly underactive thyroid than deal with the level of service I received again. Pros: Um.... Cons: Rude, unhelpful, unknowledgable, disorganized, terrible service more
