As far back as i can remember, my parents had a cardiologist whom they interacted with with as much frequently as their family doctor. The care was channeled more directly toward my dad and by the time my mid thirties hit, I was also in the cardiologists office regularly, or at least yearly. My Forest Hills cardiologist was highly sought after & never took new patients, even when I asked him as a personal favor for a friend. His attitude was changing, he didn't possess the same spark anymore, nor tone, inflection and ten years later, I felt it was time to move on.
A referral came to me from a persons whose council I highly regard, to try out a very bright and serious Russian doctor in Brooklyn. Breaking my Jewish doctor trend, off I went to my initial consultation.
As described, Dr. Valery Kuznetsov MD, FACC was a straight up guy. Questions were asked and drilled deeper than the surface, to the root of the matter.
I was put on a light medication, a plan on how to proceeds was set in place and is currently in the execution phase. No jokes, no extra chit chat--infact no extra words at all, strictly business. That's exactly the mindset I was looking for. So glad the search is over and I've got a top doctor whose care I implicitly trust. read more
