  • It was a great experience. This was first time I have some cardiac issues in my whole life. I have no problems, but once I find out, I was very stressed out. And then the way they explained things to me and the way they take care of me, it was wonderful, wonderful, wonderful experience. I felt so comfortable. I was not scared at all. And everything was so easy and smooth and everything go through so well. And I really recommend him. He's such a nice guy and wonderful, wonderful, wonderful doctor who explain everything so good.

  • The MD's and the Nurse explained their roles clearly, and listened to my comments carefully, and responded with clarity and thoroughness, and provided me with options going forward. It was a very helpful meeting, in which we all gained understanding of what has been going, and the options for treatment going forward. And even the length of the meeting seemed perfect.
