Saratoga Cardiology Associates

Today I had a stress test at 6 Care Lane in Saratoga Springs, NY. Two young ladies, Christy and Melissa took care of me. They were so very calming: professional, friendly, and helpful. I like the way they explained each and every step and helped me overcome my “ White Coat Syndrome”. They are a credit to their profession. Christy even served me a cup of coffee afterwards after I complained I missed my morning coffee.

About 5 years ago, came to Dr Dempsey about (what I thought might be) a vein/blood flow problem in both legs; the left being worse than the right leg. Since I was not a professional, I wanted to get one (I thought) could give a valid professional assessment of the issue and how it could be resolved to relieve some of the pain. Dr Dempsey said it was a vein problem and he felt he'd have to see the main vein shut to relieve the vein issue since the vein had a darker color as I was getting older. I told him overtly, I did not want him to do anything (!) that wasn't fully covered by my Health Insurance (which always covers the full cost of any valid medical procedure). He agreed not to do anything that was not fully covered by my insurance; and further agreed to check with my insurance to

I am sorry to see some negative reports for Dr. Baran. I have been seeing him for many years and have no bad experience with him. He explains clearly and does not seem to rush as busy as he is. I highly recommend him and his office staff very respectful. and kind. My only sadness is that he is so good it's getting harder to get an appointment however his PA are just as helpful and if they feel he needs to see a problem the office would get you into see him for any problems that show up in testing.

I’m a new patient, new to the area and waited 1-2 months for my appointment. I live 30 minutes away and had to travel 45+ minutes, impacted by summer traffic I’m unfamiliar with, just to have to reschedule another 1-2 months because I was 6 minutes late to my appointment. No excuses at this place! My 2 stars are for the women at the front desk for accommodating me as best they could. I will be canceling this new appointment and not be returning as this place appears to treat new patients poorly, without even giving a chance. Who would have thought a cardiologist would lack a heart? None of my doctors in NYC have ever treated me like this, and people are constantly late due to the subway system. I’d rather take Amtrak back to the city than deal with this place again.

needed to schedule appt for father in law and called and waited on hold for 15-20 mins and was in town....so i figured i would stop by. I expected it to be busy...but there was no one there and all 3 windows were open for check in. I walked up and receptionist asked if she could help me. Scheduled appt and left. No clue why I was still on hold when I left the office! I think a review of call distribution is in order?
