John R Belden

Dr Belden was very dismissive in a very impatient, inappropriate manner towards my explaining my problems for seeing him, His attitude and tone was quite abrupt. He didn't clearly answer any of my questions. His listening skills and approach to patient education were very much lacking. He included listing tests in MyChart that I'd never had. When I asked a question about this, through MyChart messaging, his response was: "I've discussed this with you earlier. I am closing this conversation." This is very poor attention to patient education and lacking any concern for the patient.

Not good. Not patient friendly and doesn't care. Saw him after stroke.

would recommend against him. He wrote false things in his report of my appointment with him. Not helpful. Not nice. Arrogant.

Lacking bedside manners. Very abrupt and harsh. Makes you feel like you are wasting his time. Is not open to answering questions.

My experience with Dr. Belden was very poor. He seemed impatient for me to leave, and when I asked him specific questions, his answers were often "I've been a doctor for thirty years, so whatever I say must be correct." I did not feel that my care was important to him and even though he gave me a possible diagnosis, he refused to order the confirmatory test because "people think they know what they want and then after wish they hadn't asked for it." I would highly recommend looking elsewhere.

Dr. Belden was dismissive, and seemed completely uninterested in the appointment, informing us that 2 episodes which were deemed TIAs were not in fact that, but caused by a tight neck muscle. So that apparently caused the slurred speech and slightly drooped face. A neck muscle. if you have seen him, GET A SECOND OPINION!!! This was one of the most terrible experiences I have ever had with a medical professional, and due to having brain surgery due to a brain tumor, I have had many.

Very helpful and professional, to the point a strait shooter.
