I'm sure Dr. Hopkins is very competent…read more He's the cardiologist my own doctor uses for himself. He replaced the aortic valve of a good friend of mine, who has no complaints. I liked him when I first met him. So I was very surprised, when after wearing a monitor to check on the details of my irregular heartbeat, things changed. He was clearly bothered that I had asked an assistant to give me copies of the 30 pages of diagnostic data. He never asked me why. Well, it so happens that I have training as a nurse, and had, for my own interest, taken a semester long course in reading electrocardiogram results. So he said, you have atrial fibrilation. I want to tell you about the 10 medications we need to choose from. I said "excuse me, but my first goal is to understand the cause, not possible medications." He again acted upset and upbraided me for interrupting him. Then I said: "I'm beginning to feel angry and need to leave now." He acted very surprised, and said: "are you coming back". I said: I don't think so. Then I learned that he had subsequently (CYA!!!) called my primary care physician to complain that I had acted in anger toward him; total misrepresentation of our experience together! Fortunately, my doctor next referred to me to Dr. John Hunter, also in Santa Rosa. Dr. Hunter is great. Completely different approach to a patient. He's a busy man, but acts like he has all the time in the world to listen to questions and concerns and discuss matters. With him I feel like part of a team. I feel respected.

I've had two previous heart attacks and related ongoing problems. The one thing that I appreciate the most about Dr Hopkins is that he speaks using non-medical terminology in explaining processes and treatments. When you leave his office, you know exactly what is going on and his support staff actually does support the patient. They bend over backwards for the patient so you know that you've an entire support group looking after you.

Dr. Dhar is not just a cardiologist. He is a wonderful man, a compassionate man and godsent to all…read moreye good people out there with heart diseases. Truly, a man with a heart! I have only seen him twice and I can't say enough good things about him. My previous appointment with Dr. Dhar was 6 years ago and he remembered me! He examined me with such meticulous care like I was his brother! "He ain't heavy, he's my brother" (the lyrics of an oldie) came to mind! I was weak from my last medical procedure and needed a wheelchair to move around. The welcoming and obliging MA, Jessica, cheerfully wheeled me in from my car. Then Dr Dhar took over and personally wheeled me from room to room so I could get an EKG and a heart Ultrasound. What was even more amazing he wheeled me to my car when I was done and told me my heart was in fine shape. Where can I get such personal and loving care from any physician and I don't know him from Adam? Having said that, my primary care physician Dr. Jonathan Morse, as if not to be outdone, wheeled me down the ramp yesterday from his 2nd floor office to my car! I was deeply touched by both physicians who went above and beyond in providing excellent care and service. Maybe they were both sorry that I only have less than 6 months to go in my battle against pancreatic cancer. God bless them both! Dr. Dhar has been in practice as a cardiologist for over 20 years and his name is a household name among medical practitioners and heart patients alike in the Santa Rosa area and beyond. His specialty is in the treatment of heart disease, such as congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart rhythm disorders and heart failure. God forbid, if you do have a heart problem, go see him and he will take care of you like his own brother or sister!

So far so good! I just finished having Dr. Dhar run a series of tests to assess the condition of…read moremy heart and circulatory system. I have done this before with other doctors but this assessment seemed much more thorough and complete. The outcome is there are some results outside of the norm so we are proceeding with a cardiac catheterization to further evaluate my condition. The good news is Dr. Dhar can do it almost immediately so I can move forward. I appreciate Dr. Dhars straightforward appraisal of the situation and his modesty and honesty in sharing that the results are not realistically predictable and we both will gain insight as we go forward. I will add to the review as we move along. Dr. Dhar seems very knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate, caring and human. I feel comfortable in his care.
