Dr. Vladu is fabulous. I've seen him for several years -- he is thorough and compassionate. He makes sure there is a plan in place and that the patient is clear about the plan. He's also exceptionally responsive; if I reach out to him through the patient portal, he gets back to me within an hour -- and usually within 10 minutes.

October 26, 2023Falaurie B.Verified patient
An exceptional doctor (and a bit intimidating, but I think he cares a lot about what he does). He listened to my symptoms and my history of visiting a few different specialists to figure out why what’s happening to me. He was very thorough in his questioning, which I found quite intelligent. He asked me about my entire health history and was very detailed and specific. He mentioned a couple of illnesses as possibilities, but also added a syndrome, PoTS, that he doesn’t treat because it’s not a part of his specialty. He wrote down the syndrome on a card for my reference. Then he scheduled a breathing test to rule out another possibility. After a month of experiencing severe unrelated symptoms, 6 trips to the ER, and being seen by every specialist I could think of only to be told that I might have just anxiety, or just migraines, and my organs all look good (??), I’m 100% positive Dr. Sorel found the answer in the PoTS syndrome. I highly recommend his expertise.

Listened to my problems and followed up with procedures and tests accordingly. Very good listener and reassured me about a lot of things I had questions or concerns with. Waiting results from a test but he said he’s calm me the next day to follow up and I 100% believe him!
November 3, 2021Barbara G.Verified patient
Dr. Vladu is very thorough and empathetic. He is one of the few doctors who actually listens. He doesn't just throw medication at a problem without trying to understand it first.
