Dr. Sarkar and the staff do a good job. There are some hiccups in the office as you switch over to my Michigan information about past tests in my prescriptions are no longer in the system and that creates issues unless you go over everything in detail. It is getting better.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I have been a patient for over 35 years. I had 3 or 4 doctors retire in that time and each time my new doctor was as good as the first. the staff of course also changed and the new staff was as good as the previous ones. This does not always happen in other cases.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Quick and courteous

Apr 12, 2025
He is the best dr I have found. He sits, listens, and explains things to me and cares about my opinions. Staff was shakey there during the merge with Midland hospital and I did have major issues dealing with the staff getting scripts called in within 2 to 3 days, but they took weeks to get my referral and scripts tended to. Dr had no clue this was what I was dealing with and he apologized and planned to take care of it. I highly recommend him because he cares. Especially for me with several different health problems.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Sarkar is an amazing doctor which is why I followed him, however ever since the move to Saginaw then the merge with Midland hospital, the care went down fast. It isn't him, it's the staff. Phone calls take 30 min for the staff to pick up. Scripts have taken 3 weeks to fill with me calling constantly to find out why! Finding out my results took weeks and referral took months to get staff to call them in. It isn't the dr because he found out just a few days ago at my visit the issue I was dealing with. And my daughter's see him, and also have issues with staff getting appointments, meds filled and tests done that still haven't been done months later and we are still waiting. I love the dr and he apologized fiercely a few days ago about the issues I brought up about the staff rudeness, esp my scripts and referrals that took forever to get called in. And the staff constantly blamed the dr for any issues. It shouldn't take weeks to a month to get scripts, given my chronic pain history.

Mar 25, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I would recommend Dr. Sarkar. My only negative experience is that my insurance is now out of network. A situation out of my control. My family has been with Dr. Sarkar since he first opened his practice. Long before Mid Michigan came in the picture. We have no interest in changing physicians. The office makes an big deal about everytime you have an appointment. A form has to be signed stating you agree to pay for the office visit. The receptionist makes sure to tell you your out of network as well. It makes you feel like they don't want you there. I understand it costs more. We are willing to pay the extra and have the means to do so.

Mar 10, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
He didn’t do a thorough exam on me. Didn’t look in my throat, do a hernia exam, check my prostrate, ask me how I was feeling, if I had any issues. A very poor physical exam in my opinion. Seemed to be in a hurry to get to the next patient.
