I had a surgery scheduled to get some routine work done on my foot, so I voluntarily decided to have a cardiology check up done. My surgeon did not tell me one was required, I was doing it on my own. The problems with Dr. Wadas started when the first thing she requested was that I wear a halter monitor, which was very unnecessary. She had not even finished reading my chart yet. She was also trying to pass me off to a specialist, which was also very unnecessary. I have seen a lot of cardiologists in my life, and none of them were specialists, and they all felt qualified to take care of me (as a side note, I had a mild birth defect on my heart when I was born, but it was fixed, and I was given a clean bill of health, and told that my heart wouldn't cause any more problems than a normal heart in my life). The problem then continued when I informed Dr. Wadas that I was not going to see a specialist, both her and one of her nurses named Mary became very hostile and aggressive towards me. Dr. Wadas and I eventually agreed that I would see a specialist after my surgery, which I was actually planning on doing. The next day, Dr. Wadas sent letters to my surgeon and the hospital my surgery was scheduled at, and told them that I was not cleared for surgery (remember that I was told that I did not need cardio clearance), even though I was administered 2 tests which showed no anomalies. She was simply not clearing me because I "refused to see a specialist". Because she did this, my surgery ended up being cancelled, which ruined a lot of people's schedules who said they would help. In my opinion, Dr. Wadas is incompetent, has terrible bedside manner, and is very aggressive against her patients when they do not agree with her, and apparently seeks revenge if she does not get her way. I would not recommend that anyone see her for any reason.
