Dr. Hadam is very tuned in to my health care and is thorough in dealing with me. Very willing to answer my questions.
Love Dr. Hadam!!!!!!
Dr. Hadam is the bomb! She has a great sense of humor and has always put me at ease while in her presence. Typically, my blood pressure is very high when I have a doctor's appointment, but it's always pretty normal when I go to see Dr. Hadam because seeing her doesn't cause me anxiety the way some other doctors do. I know she is going to take time to listen to me, ask questions, congratulate me on my health successes, and encourage me. She trusts that I know my own body and listens to my concerns. In the last two years, I've had a couple of highly stressful encounters with male OB/GYNs (at Summa) when my regular doctor had left the practice and I was placed with whomever was available. Neither of these men believed the extent of the pain I was having (it turned out to be an ovarian cyst) and even though every other test to which I had submitted (colonoscopy, x-ray, blood tests) showed nothing, and the ultrasound clearly showed a cyst, they did not attribute my pain to the cyst. One of them was condescending and petty when I explained the healthcare plan the previous doctor and I had agreed to. I tell you this because I am often scared of doctors now, scared that they won't believe me, scared that my health will suffer because of it. But, I have never felt this way with Dr. Hadam, and I actually look forward to seeing her. She is a credit to your institution, and because of her, I have transferred my primary care to*** in the UH system (she's also incredible!). Anyway, I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Hadam, and she should be recognized for the excellent care she provides!
I liked her very much. I felt like she absolutely unerstiid my issues & had solutions. She was the best Endo doctor I have ever seen.
My appointment was very satisfactoy in all ways
One of the best!!
Overall great experience. After being a patient of the Cleveland Clinic for 12+ years, I was very pleased by my doctor and the way the labs were ordered right away and I went to get it done immediately after my appointment. I feared that coming from the Cleveland Clinic I would have to explain my entire decades complicated medical history with my specific cancer case and I was pleased that the doctor knew exactly about my case and she had read the notes from my Cleveland Clinic doctor and picked up right where I left off. I felt extremely relieved I didn't have to explain anything and felt very comfortable with her care and professionalism. I also got a call right away with my results something that I never got at the Cleveland Clinic and I always had to look at myself on MyChart. Overall, great experience so far.
Everything was great.
Very professional and respectful
The visit was with a specialist who was attentive, took her time and is highly skilled, the wait was anticipated.
Dr Hadam does a great job. She includes me in making decisions and takes the time to help me understand my diabetes diagnosis. She even helps celebrate my milestones as it has been a journey to control my diabetes
Excelent
Wonderful Doctor whose care goes beyond the office visit.
Would highly recommend dr hadam, very thorough and talks to you instead of at you!
This is the best office and physician that I go to. The receptionist's are always helpful, kind and courteous. Christina is more than accommodating, and thorough, I called late the day before my appt. For blood work to be put in, not sure if they would receive the message. Christina not only received it but called me back within 10 min. To let me know she had placed the order and explained my instructions for the draw. Dr. Hadam is always efficient, knowledgeable and gives you the confidence that she understands what your going through, and gives you the choices to overcome or control your issues. She advocates for her patients which is greatly appreciated. This is a great team of professionals.
This provider is extremely knowledgeable about my health care needs and knows what is available.
Dr. Hadam is simply the BEST. I was struggling with my insulin schedule but she listened and made some simple recommendations that have proven be the correct solution.
Excellent provider
Dr. Hadam is awesome. I have been seeing here for at least 15 years I believe. She is always upbeat and welcoming. She works to help strategize my diabetes and insulin regime. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing an endocrinologist. If I request a renewed prescription, it is responded to immediately. Dr. Hadam's assistant *** is wonderful as well.
Excellent health care provider!
I always look forward to these visits bc the experience is always pleasant.
Dr Hadam has taken good care of me for years. I have recommended her highly to friends.
Dr. Hadam is an excellent doctor and connects with her patients. ***
Great concern for my medical needs
Provider was very concerned about A12 and to follow my m dictation regimen .
Knowledgeable kind and Interested
Easy to make an appt and good feedback from Dr
No issues, all went well.
Seem to be a very good Doctor. Looking forward to working with her on my Medical condition.
I feel extremely comfortable and confident in Dr Hadam's knowledge, experience caring demeanor.
Dr. Hadam is very caring and has her patients best interest at heart.
Dr.Hadam was amazing. She listened to me, made me feel heard, and had a solution for my medical problem immediately.
Even though I had to wait a little longer than my scheduled appointment time with Dr. Hadam I clearly did not mind. It shows she takes time with previous patients. Dr. Hadam always gives me more than enough time during my visit and makes sure I clearly understand any change in treatment and information for further tests / appointments. As a new patient of Dr. Hadam, I am truly glad to have her as my Endocrinologist - her knowledge, expertise, chair-side manner are very much appreciated. Another plus is her nurse, ***! Both are wonderful examples of UH medical personnel that provide appreciable, positive care.
Never had a bad experience with Dr.Valerie Hadam. She's been great since my first visit and helped me get through the issues with my thyroid when a previous, not my current, primary care physician didn't recognize there was a serious problem with my thyroid.
Great
Dr Hadam is a compassionate professional. She is so, so smart and intelligent. (There is a difference.) A doctor with a great "bedside manner" is an understatement. I really actually enjoy meeting with her. She not only has a great understanding and knowledge but they are coupled with a marvelous sense of humor. She is wonderful.
Dr. Hadam was very informative and pleasant. Easy to talk to and respectful. Would recommend her to anyone who needs to see an endocrinogist.
Very good at listening to my concerns and at explaining how new medicines can be of help.
Dr. Haddam and her staff provide the best care possible in my opinion
I appreciate the attention the provider showed for my health concerns and also that she was willing to schedule another appointment sooner than Is typical to help me resolve any Issues. Making additional appointments could be especially helpful to me In the future since, sometimes, the appointments I have with this provider go slightly faster than I would like In terms of addressing some of my health concerns. However, this time, I believe It went well In that respect, with attention even being paid to how I was meeting my unique nutritional needs for my exercise regiment.
They were very helpful and organized. She was delayed under 15 min but they still let meKnow which was very helpful to me as I become anxious at appointments. Dr hadam is always compassionate and listens. I feel I part of the team working on my diabetes control
Very good experience.
I love my doctors
The doctor asked me to make an appointment to have an ultra sound of my thyroid. This is done every year. My visit with the doctor was the usual good experience.
Very good
Dr. Hadam continues to give me excellent care
Physician and staff was nice and polite and quite professional.
Dr Haddam is the best!
Dr. Hadam is such a terrific physician, always personable. Professional, and thorough.
Great physician. Very concerned about my health.
Dr. Hadam and team are wonderful
Dr. Hadam is always pleasant and very easy to talk with. She definitely takes the time to make sure everything has been discussed with care.
Dr. Hadam is the best!
This was my first visit to Dr. Hadam and she was so knowledgeable about my Issues; even mentioning she had heard of studies regarding Stage 3 Liver disease. She explained our plan of action and agreed with my request for a certain diabetic medicine that would aid my liver as well as my diabetes. Her bedside manner put me at ease right away as I was extremely nervous coming to a new doctor (mine had just retired). She suggested, at my agreement, that my glucose monitor send her the test results so she has a better understanding of what is happening and when to my glucose levels. I believe she went above and beyond and I have already started recommending her to family and friends.
Excellent as usual.
Dr Hadam is a professional, empathetic and knowledgeable health care provider. I would recommend her to anyone requiring endocrinological care or advice
Excellent visit, as usual.
Overall I was pleased with the visit!
I am very satisfied with my provider. She is highly knowledgeable, very professional and most caring. I always feel comfortable during my appointments. Thank you.
Doctor checking watch as I was talking was very disconcerting. Receptionist did not believe I wasn't sick or had covid because I was wearing a mask! I told her I was trying to prevent getting covid. Seems pretty elementary to me.
Dr. Valerie Hadam is excellent, listens, and clearly focuses on what we discuss. Her assistant Christine is also excellent and incredibly nice.
She reviewed my medications. She was concerned about my health in general.
Dr. Hadam is the best endocrinologist I have ever seen. I drive from *** to see her - and will continue to do so.
Overall positive visit
She and her assistant take particular care to ask my preference in their wearing masks during my exam, which greatly relieves my stress and demonstrates the care they give their patients. This behavior should be demonstrated more through the system.
Excellent visit as always
*** was a first time appt with Dr. Hadam and I'm very pleased with the doctor and her staff. *** was able to put me on a "wait list," calling me immediately when an appt was available. Even though the waiting room time was longer than expected, I had no problem with that since I was seeing Dr. Hadam much, much earlier than end of ***. I was having double vision thought to be thyroid related and just not feeling well from the thyroid medication dosage for quite some time. HUGE thanks to Dr. Hadam and *** for being very kind, courteous and knowledgeabl. Dr. Hadam gave me an immediate plan of action with scheduled follow-ups / lab work. So impressed with this Endo Team!!!
Dr. Hadam is a fine endocrinologist whom I see twice a year. Her care is excellent.
Dr. Hadam is excellent. Responsive and a great listener. Her approach is honest and collaborative.
I was very pleased with this and all my visits with Dr. HADDAM
I appreciate the care that Dr. Hadam has provided. She adjusted the dosage I was on towards the beginning and informs myself of what the expectations are. Everything is going good. Thank you for doing your best to keep my health first in your care. Thank you.
I feel blessed that Dr. Hadam is taking care of my cancer treatment.
Dr Hadam is wonderful
Dr. Addressed all my concerns in terms I could understand
Dr. Hadam, her assistant and the front desk staff are among the most courteous, responsive and professional health care providers I work with. I am so grateful for the quality of care that they provide!
I was very impressed at how this provider explained my issue and solutions. I not only appreciate the care, I want to keep this physician to help me in the future. It is very rare that I come home saying how much I appreciated the care I was given.
Very good
Dr. Haddam is excellent in a multiplicity of ways, I am happy with her and her staff. I feel they are doing the best they can and it more than meets my expectations.
Everything was professionally handled
Great physician!! Office staff was very professional and very nice!!!!
*** EVERYONE in this office was nice and helpful.
It is always great to see Dr. Hadam. I always feel that she takes a personal interest in my health. She is very positive and encouraging.
Could not have been better unless they served capuchino
Although I waited more than 15 minutes, Dr.Hadam did not rush though my appointment, so I understand that she afforded the same time and attention to the patients before me. Another appointment will be made after I have been using the medication change long enough to make a difference in my condition.
