Good provider

10/15/2024

From Dr in the room to out was 7 minutes. This was not enough time to ask questions which I had written & ready. Wait 6 months & get 7 minutes! My heart condition is my life I'd like someone in a heart office to care. idiThis is my life .

wonderful appt. in every way

07/01/2024

I would just like this provider to do follow up and let me know what he found and what and why are we going forward with further testing. It is hard to have confidence in someone who doesn't do a follow up with you and tell you why and what he is do and then follow up with a visit to explain the results and what they mean.
