M. Angela Madden, MD

Truly, one of the most devoted physicians left in this world! She honestly cares about every one of her patients and devotes herself 24 seven to her practice.

The kindest, most thorough doctor in all of south Florida!

This woman has been my elderly mother’s PCP for about 20 years. During that time mom has had several small strokes and the occasional medical incident requiring care.
I live in Pennsylvania so it is important to get clear and concise medical advice about mom and her condition.
Despite the fact that I am clearly listed as my mom’s medical representative, over the years her office staff have been incapable of returning my calls or fulfilling my requests for information.
After a major stroke in November Dr Madden was clear that mom needed 24/7 supervision. I flew down the day of her stroke to be with her. I took a three month leave of absence from my job (FMLA) to stay and oversee mom’s recovery and rehab, set up an assisted living contract in PA, pack her belongings, dispose of her furniture, get her home on the market, and prepare her for relocating.
The FMLA paperwork requires that mom’s doctor complete forms. I dropped them at the doctor’s office about November 23 and, despite several calls asking if the forms were ready, I did not receive anything until mom’s post hospitalization appointment with Dr Madden on Dec. 10, more than two weeks later. My HR department was not happy about that.
At the December 10 appointment we discussed the doctor’s move to a concierge practice beginning in January and she assured me it would be no problem whatsoever to see mom one last time before her departure on Feb 1. We scheduled a final appointment on January 17.
Meanwhile, on January 2 the assisted living facility faxed a request for mom’s records to Madden’s office, a requirement for acceptance to their facility. Again and again I asked Madden’s assistant Brian to get those records sent so that we could have everything in place for the move on February 1. What he did finally send was Incomplete. I was stuck between one place requesting specific records and another place that wasn’t complying with the request in a timely manner.
On January 16 - two weeks after the initial faxed request- mom and I drove to the office armed with a copy of the facility’s request and insisted that they send it. We were told the doctor had sent what was necessary. I responded that the records are my mother’s and she wants them sent in full. We sat there for almost an hour until he handed us a fax verification stating that 6 pages had gone through. I asked for a copy of what was sent. He demurred. I insisted. He said I wasn’t nice.
I finally got a copy of the documents, photographed them and sent them to the assisted living.
Today we returned for mom’s final appointment and were told she “didn’t have one. She had her records and she was done.” We were told the doctor now had a concierge practice and mom hadn’t signed up. I mentioned the doctor’s reassurance in December that it wouldn’t make a difference.
To no avail.
After several long minutes of waiting in the outer office, the receptionist returned and said
they would try to squeeze her in next week before she left and asked for my cell so they could fill a cancellation. We declined and left. But I did tell the receptionist that they owed my 90-year-old mother an apology for the disrespectful way they had dismissed her.
Look - my mom really likes Dr. Madden. She has a charming Irish brogue and a caring and comforting manner. I am sure she is really a reassuring presence for her patients. But patients routinely wait as long as 60-90 minutes to be seen.
I have learned that all of my mom’s friends who have transported her to appointments over the years were fed up with the disrespect shown for the time of patients and their caregivers and will no longer accompany her.
The purpose of this rant is to point out that Dr. Madden is ultimately responsible for the way her office treats patients. Warm, soothing voices are not enough. Competence, prompt responses to requests, and thorough communication with the medical representatives of her elderly patients is essential.

The only primary care physician I trust without any doubt!! It’s like a second family!! Always there for me!! Remember me always!! I have unusual medical needs. Dr. Madden remembers all of it and has literally saved my life TWICE!! She looks into your soul and true health needs!! Her staff is the best!! Also got my healthcare needs taken care of with recommendation for medical insurance a couple years ago!! ALWAYS THERE FOR ME!!

Dr. Madden has been my primary physician for so many decades I can not remember. I adore her and value her medically knowledge. She is a treasure. She was involved in my health even when I was in Vermont critically sick. I love her.

I’ve read the reviews and some were wrongfully negative. I’m a caregiver and Dr Madden was very dear to Catherine Murray. The Dr and her staff were always kind to me , when i’d call on Catherine’s behalf. Personally I. Don't know anyone who doesn't love Dr Madden and her staff. They became like family. I’m now posting this review on Catherine’s behalf. This Dr is worth the wait!

I waiting for 3 hrs in the lobby area to see the doctor for the first time. when they put me in the room I had to wait another hr for the doctor. She then came in saw me for 15min and was done. Came back for yearly blood work a month later a received a bill that I had to pay $100.00. When I called the office the lady that I guess does the blood work was rude and not helpful at all. told me I had to pay it. That they don’t tell their client if they do test and your insurance doesn’t cover it. When I called my insurance they told me they just had to re code it as a yearly test so my insurance can cover it. Worst experience of my life. I will never go back to this doctor or office. Now I’m stuck paying 100.00 for nothing. Who ever things of going to this doctor please make sure you free your day and ask a lot of questions about billing and check before you get them done.

Lived in South Florida since the 70’s by far the best, most caring primary Dr.

Dr Madden has been my primary for 2 yrs. Recently I had a health issue that resulted in a 21 day stay in the hospital. She put together a team of outstanding specialists to treat me. I couldn't have been more pleased with the "above & beyond" care by her, the team of specialists and everyone in her office. She is smart and compassionate...I couldn't have been more pleased with everything she did. She's the best!!! She exemplifies what excellent health care should be. Thank you Dr Madden and Team.

Angela Madden, MD is the most wonderful Internist! She has been my primary physician for quite a number of years and I have found her to be amazing as a physician and as a human being. She is kind, knowledgeable and the staff in the office is just the same. The number of folks you meet that have been in Broward for a while that don’t know of Dr Madden and her grin, are few and far between. It is an honor to know her and to be a part of her “patient family”.

I wouldn't even give this practice one star if I had an option. Extremely unorganized and unprofessional. I had to call multiple times to get my lab results and prescriptions. Dr was not direct or professional in relaying her concerns and insted left it to her PA and secretary to give me important information.

Great staff, Dr Madden was amazing. I have already recommended multiple people I know to her office. Super easy and convenient experience with them.

Excellent wellcare doctor. Amazing PCP, the best care during hospitalization and follow up after release. Always provides excellent recommendations of doctors or facility when specialized treatment is needed. Follow up and coordination of care is spectacular.

she was such a great doctor. But the biggest downfall was waiting in the waiting room for hours!! then i heard she was charging a membership fee. No couldnt do that , plus wait hours to be seen everytime unheard of. . But an excellent doctor!

Dr Maddin.is the kindest, most interested and caring Dr. I have ever attended. I was so very lucky to be referred to Dr Maddin by a friend when I moved to Florida 20 yrs ago. I cherish my friendship with her.

Dr. Madden does not return calls and Brian, who runs the office is just terribly rude and incompetent. This practice has NO, bedside manner.

Dr. Madden and her staff are the best in South Florida. Hands down you will NOT find a doctor so in tune with you. I cannot say enough!
