    He was great all around
    Aug 07, 2024
    Only concern: One of the follow up lab tests ordered for me required fasting. I wasn't not informed of this requirement, so I will need to visit the lab a second time to complete the tests.

    Dr Padgett professionally introduced himself and mentioned how bad Isounded initially. He asked about my symtoms, heard my lungs, meds I am taking and explained his diagnoses and treatments. I agreed and followed his written instructions for an xray exam at Mission Bay. He informed that my Prednisone could also be p/u at my pharmacy. Today, he messaged me at mychart for the results of my xray and said that my lungs are cleared and hopefully the Prednosone works. I am too! I appreciate Dr Padgett seeing me as quicky as possible with Liza Woods, NP scheduling me on the same day. I am really being taking cared of. Thank you all.
    Apr 16, 2024
    He couldn't not have been faster or more indifferent. Didn't ask almost any questions. His first question was did it hurt enough to need surgery?!?! What? He gave me referrals and said he would refer me to ortho, Barely touched my leg or interacted. I drove in spite of protest because they said he knew alot about these types of injuries. And just unfriendly. So uncharacteristic for ucsf doctors all of whom have been consistently great at patient care.
    Apr 12, 2024
    Dr. Padgett was helpful. Seemed pretty thorough and efficient which I appreciated

    Dr Padgett is wonderful and I hope he remains with UCSF!
    Mar 20, 2024
    I have not experienced the level of care I receive from Dr. Padgett from any other primary care doctor. I'm considered a complex medical case and to my surprise, he had taken time to carefully review my complete medical history prior to our initial appointment. At every visit he seems to remain familiar with my case and takes time to discuss issues with me, answer questions, make recommendations and order referrals to specialists when necessary. I'm very pleased to be under his care.
    Mar 14, 2024
    My care provider Dr. Padgett is an excellent doctor and when you are with him,you feel very comfortable and at ease and can talk to him freely.i will recommend him to any of my friends and family members.
    Mar 12, 2024
    Dr Padgett is an outstanding professional. Despite his busy schedule he is able to connect with the patient, to listen, explain and educate. I feel fortunate to be under his care.

    Excellent service
    Oct 28, 2023
    I am a bit irked that the first thing Dr Padgett recommended for my obesity is a referral to Stanford for bariatric surgery. He seemed to ignore that I told him I had just lost 10 lbs in prior 6 weeks. Such an extreme measure may be necessary in the end but it seemed radical to propose it right away. I am not a statistic.
    Oct 26, 2023
    Dr Padgett throughly explained my condition and broke it down so I understood just how critical it is. I saw another provider who ordered lab tests and later told me that I was severely anemic but never mentioned how severe or what to look out for but Dr Padgett went and explained the numbers so I understood what the other doctor meant by "severely". He's great! I'm so glad I went to see him!
    Sep 27, 2023
    I'm lucky he's my PCP
    Sep 23, 2023
    You are very lucky to have him! Try to keep him!

    Exceptional provider
    Sep 13, 2023
    Engagement with a physician was really good
    Aug 15, 2023
    Dr. Padgett is great--and, for me, a wonder in terms of a doctor who is thorough and proactive, who listens and considers my needs as well as my feelings--to then provide me comprehensive as well as personally prescribed care that best benefits me. I've suffered from "White Coat-itis" all my life, but something tells me Dr. Padgett manner and attitude towards me the patient will cure me of that, too.
    Aug 12, 2023
    Very comfortable, informative first visit with the DoctorHe gave me some insight and advice concerning my health, without being condescending nor judgmental .
    Aug 11, 2023
    My care provider is a very professional person and he listens and responds very nicely, explaining everything in detail.
    Aug 10, 2023
    Dr. Padgett is an excellent provider. He tailors his care to encourage my input. It feels as if we are developing a plan together. He invites me to share my thoughts and concerns after he provides his expertise. He listens and addresses all my concerns. Never before have I left a doctors' office so full of hope. He makes me feel supported and well taken care of. An absolute pleasure to work with and have as my primary care provider.
    Aug 08, 2023
    Dr Padgett pulled up some online drawings which were very helpful to me
    Jul 26, 2023

    Dr Padgett provided excellent care.
    Jul 19, 2023
    Very reassuring, respectful. Handled multiple concerns / requests in about 20mins. Left feeling heard and understood.
    Jun 27, 2023
    Dr. Padgett seemed very knowledgeable, but he didn't introduce himself, wasn't wearing a badge, seemed barely interested in my concerns, and when 30 minutes had elapsed, ended the session by saying, "I have to move on now" I've never had a physical where the doctor didn't examine me - no listening to breath sounds or heartbeat, no hernia check, stomach palpitation, nothing. Maybe that's just not his style, or maybe it's an antiquated expectation on my part. I listed my troubles and he ordered the appropriate tests, and I came away feeling like I could have easily done the same thing with an online computer program. Would not recommend.
