I had issues with hemorrhoids and not being able to empty my bowels fully, along with an incredible feeling of abdominal fullness and pain with defecation...but constipation was not the problem. Dr. B performed a rectal exam, ordered an MRI, and did my colonoscopy. I'm still awaiting the results, but find him to be knowledgeable, attentive, efficient, and kind. I have found that his staff is not good at returning phone calls, but respond by next day if you use their UNLV My Chart app.

Bad, comunication with staff is almost imposible. Every time we went it was a different story, ordered studies that he didn even looked at, etc.Hope that this dont happen to someone else.

Dr. Bardakcioglu literally saved my life. After having been diagnosed with stage 3b colon cancer at age 52, my primary care physician referred me to Doctor Bardakcioglu (calling him doctor "B" and telling me doctor "B" is the best colo rectal surgeon in Nevada and possibly on the west coast). After having received care from Doctor Bardakcioglu, I have to agree with my primary care physician. Doctor Bardakcioglu is very capable, caring, and humble (which is surprising given his abilities and renown). I will forever be gratefu... read more

Not just an expert on his field but a great human being. Knowledge, compassion and a warm personality are not a common combination. Memorize his last name as two words (Bardak-cioglu), do not risk loosing his contact info in your phone!

I am so glad I was referred by members of the Crohn`s and Colitis foundation. I have been diagnosed with Crohn`s disease now for almost 10 years and it was really difficult to find a provider with the experience Dr. Bardakcioglu has. Despite some initial scheduling and insurance hiccups I am glad my surgery went so well and I am feeling so much better. Thanks and a big hug from my wife Elizabeth to the UNLV team, you were the best.

Dr. B provided me with a surgical procedure that made my symptoms worse than when I walked in the door. He didn't ask my history or symptoms, he did not conduct any imaging, didn't do a physical exam, and based my surgery on tests conducted >3 years prior. He doesn't care about you as a patient or that he ruins your quality of life. Such a arrogant jerk. In addition, you are never seen at your appointment time. You will wait at least 45 minutes even if you are the first appointment of the day.

Dr Bardakcioglu was referred after my gastro found a colon mass. Dr B. is both approachable, and professional.He successfully removed my carcinoma mass using the newest techniques. Just check out his board certifications and you tube videos. During every appointment and hospital visit, he was both caring and willing to spend as much time as I needed answering my myriad of prepared and impromptu questions.

After over a year of misery and a Dr. with a horrible bedside manner I was lucky enough to find Dr. B, he and his Residents were all amazing and very thorough. They walked me through what to expect after surgery and all the options (including pro's & con's of each) and were able to fully excise my growth!! I feel better than I have in years and will ALWAYS trust Dr. B and his team to look out for my health and wellbeing, thank you sooooooo very much Dr. B and team!!!!

Recommended by family, was immediately scheduled for a screening colonoscopy instead of waiting for months with someone else I was sent to. Pleasant experience at the surgery center.
