The front desk was professional & courteous. The nursing staff went above & beyond in helping me get testing and results I needed. One of the nurse, Michele, really went out of her easy to assist with getting an echo set up for me the very next day when my in office ekg was abnormal. She stayed after hours to accommodate me. I was truly impressed.
In fact, even the doctor went out of his way to spend time with me. He was knowledgeable and explained several procedures I needed to me in depth.
The wheelchair accessibility of this clinic is fantastic, including reduced rate parking in valet if you have a valid handicapped placard.
When i went back the next day for the echo, I met a second cardiologist for the practice who was actually me friendly than the first one, and just as knowledgeable.
So why four stars? Ultimately, the first doctor made a couple of insulting comments about my weight- and I don't mean appropriate medical comments about a need to lose weight, as I would have had no issue with that. These comments were joking comments about needing "special equipment" due to my size. Thing is, I'm not big enough to have warranted that. Unfortunately, I'm just overweight enough that a comment line that was, at best, inconsiderate and at worst inappropriate.
So I got my echo results and went across the street to Methodist cardiology, where they explained to me all about my valve condition and murmur, scheduled my further testing- without any special equipment, thank you very much-and really set my mind and heart at ease.
So ....if you're not as sensitive as I am, give them a shot. With my health issues, I've just decided life is too short not to be treated respectfully, especially when is something as serious as your health. But at the same time, I won't knock the entire practice- which was really good- over one comment from an unthinking doc. read more
