Every staff/provider in this office is unprofessional, condescending, and disrespectful towards their patients. They interrupt, speak to patients as if they are inferior, and do not honor their appointment times. I arrived to my appointment 20 minutes early and was not seen until 50 minutes after my appointment time, so I waited in the office for over an hour. Not one single provider in this office is welcoming or kind. I had multiple appointments and never met with Dr. Schwartz once. Staff seem to care more about being employed in Beverly Hills, the front desk receptionist never fails to mention it. They don't care about providing care or offering basic hospitality skills to their patients from vulnerable backgrounds. Absolutely terrible. Follow up as of April 2026: Receptionists Brianna, Jade, and Tanya are truly some of the most rude and patronizing medical staff I have ever encountered. The receptionists, specifically Brianna, create an extremely uncomfortable environment with their condescending attitudes and lack of care. Every time you call, they immediately place you on hold for 10+ minutes, only to hear them laughing, gossiping, and clearly not prioritizing patients. I know this because I have witnessed the same behavior in person while waiting in the office. Trying to schedule an appointment with the doctor is always a frustrating experience. They will confirm availability multiple times over the phone, only to literally yell and argue with you in person and claim "he's not here" or act like you were given incorrect information. There is no accountability, only attitude and unnecessary arguments. Even simple requests, like asking for copies of my own medical documents, are treated as if I'm asking for something unreasonable. They make basic patient care feel like a burden and seem annoyed by having to do their jobs. You often have to argue just to be treated with basic respect. For a cardiology office, where patients are often already dealing with stress and serious health concerns, the lack of compassion and professionalism is unacceptable. Patients deserve kindness, clear communication, and respect not hostility and distrust the moment they walk in. read more

Professor Dr. Ernst von Schwarz MD, PHD, FESC, FACC, FSCAI is truly an outstanding physician. From the very first appointment, he made me feel heard, respected, and genuinely cared for. He took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all my questions with patience and expertise. His calm and compassionate demeanor made a stressful situation much easier to for me to handle. I felt completely confident in his care, and I am so grateful for his incredible professionalism and dedication. Highly recommend Professor Dr. Ernst von Schwarz to anyone seeking a top-tier cardiologist. One more important comment - Dr. Schwartz's staff and the entire office in Murrieta are very professional and friendly. Thank you very much to all and each of you for your hard work. Sincerely, Nick and Mila Tzakis read more

Dr. Schwarz office sent me a bill after two years, claiming that I have not paid my copay. They always collect the copay at the time of visit. I can't find my receipts from TWO years ago and they want to charge me again!! Also, Dr. Schwarz never called me back with the test results so I had to go and see another doctor. He does not care about his patients, he cares only about MONEY. read more

Dr. Schwarz is in a class by himself. Very approachable, very attentive, and very thorough when it comes to finding the root cause of a problem. I've been a patient for about 2-3 years now and after multiple appointments I have zero complaints. His staff is world-class; very friendly and helpful. No crowded office, always organized and he is second to none in his field. Communicates well with patients and leaves no stone unturned. He ranks at the top of his field and as an overall rating-staff included-I give them 25 platinum stars, hands down and with total confidence. read more

I didn't get to meet Dr. Von Schwarz, but the care I received from his outstanding staff can only be a reflexion of him. I was mostly impressed by Luciana, the phone operator who is so efficient and understanding. I call in during a mismanaged and stressful situation with my previous cardiologist. Luciana was most supportive and compassionate in her desire to make things go my way. Did I mention? She fixed it all... THAT - SAME - DAY ! Thank you Team. David Frison - Venice read more

Do not go this doctor. No matter how qualified he is, he does not care about his patients and this may have dire consequences for you. My son required a certain heart procedure performed before he could do a surgery with another doctor. Dr. Schwarz's office scheduled the procedure. We anxiously waited for the procedure for 6 weeks, as my son's condition got worse. Two days before the scheduled date they called us and said that the procedure is canceled because the doctor "will be out of town". The new date is 4 weeks away. This is no way to treat a patient in a life-threatening situation. read more

180 turn around. I'm very pleased now that I have been able to see Dr.Schwarz. He has been amazing with my care and his staff is professional and very caring. 5 stars read more

He shamed me for wearing a mask today at my appointment asking me "why I was wearing a mask" and I was so speechless I didn't know what to say. Then went on a rant about how "the data says blah blah blah" and "it's not real or effective blah blah blah" I don't know whether he was talking about masks or viral illness. The poor assistant behind him wearing a mask was rolling her eyes and the other one was looking at me like she was so sorry for his behavior. I have yet to get sick in 5 years so I think I'll stick to my damn masks especially when I'm in a doctors office read more

I had a hard time getting through to make an appointment before my surgery. Some of the ladies that answer the phone were not accommodating. I was worried I would have to postpone my surgery, that is until I found Dr. Schwartz's secret weapon. His office manager, T'Wanda.! Once I got through to her, she was so helpful & professional. she went above and beyond to make sure that I would be able to see Dr. Schwartz. She even gave me her own cell number! Needless to say, everything worked out perfect. when I told her how much I appreciated everything, T'Wanda simply said " that's what we're here for" She's the best! Dr Schwartz is very kind & very smart! He has helped me with my heart health & I feel confident that he never misses anything. Even the tiniest detail is covered, because we all know how important our heart health is! read more

I came to Dr.Ernst von Schwarz seeking stem cell therapy and learned so much about it , I went through all the testing and then the wonderful stem cells WoW those stem cells changed my life, Everyone connected with Dr. von Schwarz treated me with the highest standard of care and the results so far have been amazing my Quality of Life is beyond measure I have received the most Wonderful results I will be forever grateful Dr.von Schwarz for my new lease on life I'm 78 years old with a great future in front of me. Thank You All read more

I've been a cardiology patient of Dr. Ernst Schwarz for nearly a decade, but five years ago, after an angiogram, I faced a grim reality; 100% blockage in three of my arteries. Numerous cardiovascular surgeons from Cedars, UCLA and St. John's hospitals all told me there was no clear path for a successful bypass. They advised me to start getting my affairs in order. But lucky for me, not all superheros wear capes, and Dr. Schwarz refused to accept that there wasn't an answer. Dr. Schwarz doesn't just treat your condition; he treats you like a real person. His kindness, patience and unwavering determination made all the difference for me. While others saw this prognosis as the final performance of my life's play, he saw hope for an extended run. He was undeterred by the negative reviews and continued searching for a surgeon who could solve the problem. And he did. Thinking outside the box, he contacted a doctor who had retired, years earlier, from performing heart surgery and was now strictly a lung transplant specialist. Dr. Schwarz convinced him to look into my case. This doctor saw what all the others had missed and because of Dr. Schwarz's persistence and dedication to healing, I had successful bypass surgery and I'm still here today, alive and well, over five years later. Dr. Schwarz literally saved my life. I cannot truly express how grateful I am for his continued dedication, expertise, care, kindness and medical one liners that always make me laugh, even if I've heard them more than once. I always leave a visit with him feeling better than when I arrived. He is truly a remarkable healer who goes above and beyond for all his patients and I know that for a fact because he also cares for my mother and brother-in-law. Maybe I should see if he has a family discount plan! On a scale of 1 to 10, he's at 1,000. If you're searching for a cardiologist, look no further than Dr. Ernst Schwarz RC read more

Dr Schwarz & his staff treated me very well. It would be nice if more hospital personnel had his bedside manners.

Doctor Schwartz saved my 25 year old son's live with acute myocarditis . He was the only doctor among the entire cardiac team at cedar Sinai that took a risk of administering a medication that wasn't approve by protocol but brought my son's heart back . Thank God for doctor Schwartz . We refer every family member and friends to him and him only . Humble thank you , doctor Schwartz ! God bless you ! read more

Ernst von Schwarz - Cardiologists Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

I was referred to Dr. von Schwarz by my primary care doctor. I was experiencing a faster than normal heart rate, so he thought I should get checked out. Within in the first minute of entering the office, I could tell this place was going to take excellent care of me. Every single staff person I encountered was friendly, caring and concerned with providing the best level of care. The Doctor decided to do an EKG, echo-cardiogram and have me wear a Holter monitor for 24 hours. Once I got my results I was assured my heart issues (which were caused by years of untreated high blood pressure) were very minor and that he recommends getting an echo once a year to make sure things stay OK. Now that I'm on proper blood pressure medication, I feel confident that I can keep things under control. I could not be happier with the care I received here. Dr. von Schwarz is highly educated, but is able to explain things very well to the lay person. He answered all my questions and really put my mind (and heart) at ease. read more

He will not return your messages or calls. I was seen here through emergency at Southern California when I had Medi-Cal. I suppose I was not famous enough for him to return my messages regardiing a doctors note for my personal California bar application. He seems to mainly be concerned with high-profile TV appearances and advancing his career. If you are looking for a doctor who cares about their patients on a genuine level and is communicative as well as responsive, steer clear. read more

Really nice! Very good service!!!!! I'd recommended to go there if there's any doctor closest for you or everyone to check on their heart

My experience has been great going here. However; I can't find a number to reach this facility for a checkup. 310 840-7089 isn't working. Can you guys give me a number to reach your office? Please & Thanks! read more

The best medical office experience I have had in LA. Dr. Schwarz is warm and friendly but also knows exactly what he's talking about in a very clear and concise manner. The staff is prompt and appointments were quick. Very pleased with my experience. read more

The absolute best doctor in the world! I trust his advice and the office staff is amazing! Thank you for keeping my family healthy. read more

I was came to this office after hearing Dr Schwartz being interviewed on the radio talking about the heart. He mentioned some symptoms I was actually having so I went to see him myself and after testing me he let me know if was ok! But he didn't just say that. He went through explaining all of the texts and things he did and what they meant so I understood why I was ok and what's not ok. I just appreciated the time he took. Most don't!!! read more

Went for my first appointment and the level of care is truly outstanding. Everyone is extremely personable and on the level with you - no problem changing my low review for the mis-scheduled appointment to a full 5 stars. I couldn't imagine being with another doctor. read more

Horrible waste of time and money. Assigned as my PCP for 2.5 months. The office staff refused to schedule an appointment for annual wellness check. Rude office staff. "He's not accepting new patients". Lol. Really? read more

I thought I was suffering from anxiety/stress, my heart rate was off and I was having horrible palpitations, my PCP referred me to Dr Schwarz. He was very courteous and knowledgeable, he explained what he thought might be going on and then talked me through some options regarding tests. We decided to go with a 24 hour holter to monitor my heart rate, his office staff called my insurance to get the cost of the test approved. I'm feeling 100% better now, he resolved all the issues and I'm very glad I took the time to get myself checked. Wonderful caring Doctor and very helpful office staff read more

I saw this Dr. last week for chest pain at his clinic in Culver City. First, his staff members were super nice. They smile at you and they are very polite and speak Spanish. Then i met the Dr. Schwarz. I didn't have to wait long to see him. His reception was amazing. He introduced himself and covered my legs in a respectful manner and maintained my modesty to make me feel comfortable before we started our interactions. He is one of the most amazing and intelligent Cardiologist i have ever met (I have met 3 cardiologist). I was born with a PDA ( hole in the heart) and I had to get periodic Echo to monitor my heart. So, i heard about Dr. Schwarz and decided to try him. Saw him at the clinic and his personality just blew me away. He explained to me in a way i could understand my condition better. He went the extra miles by using diagrams to educate me on how the heart functions normally and what it does when it becomes abnormal. ( I feel like i am a heart doctor now...hahaha) Dr. Schwarz, is super amazing. i would give him over 5 stars if i could. I would recommend him over and over. He is nothing less than EXCELLENT! read more

So I guess I don't have heart issues! Haha I'd still give 5 stars even if I did office was very efficient and kind.

My mother was referred to a cardiologist and she was fortunate enough to be put under Dr Schwarz's care. Dr Schwarz ordered a few tests to make sure her heart was okay. Thank god it wasn't anything serious and she just needed some minor changes to her medication. Thanks to Dr Schwarz my mother is now feeling a lot better, he's a great doctor, I highly recommend. read more

Dr. Schwarz is a life saver. And he is so genuinely caring and attentive with his patients. I use him as my primary physician but he is also a renowned cardiologist which makes me feel like I'm in the best hands. read more

Dr Schwarz spent a lot of time with me in the room and listened to my concerns, he explained everything in detail and ordered some tests. He was very polite and knowledgable. His office manager was wonderful, she got me an appointment to see him real quick even though he had a long wait list. The office also checked eligibility with my insurance company for the tests, everything was covered thankfully and they took care of all the paperwork. Very glad to have found this office, excellent Doctor and very friendly, kind staff. read more

Called and was told they're not accepting new patience. So why the hell he is my primary care physician?
