I had a loop recorder installed by Dr Mitesh Amin MD at Cardiology Associates of Richmond in 2017…read more After it was installed, they did not follow up with me. I called and the receptionist said if they see anything they will let me know. I had pressed the button a few times and no response. I even unplugged the device entirely for 4 months and no response . I even called the office and left quite a few msgs and nobody ever called back. After a year I went into the office to schedule an appointment and the receptionist told me I had to call and make an appointment. Again I would call on multiple occassions and nobody ever followed up. I gave up and waited another year-and received a letter stating they had not heard from me and wanted to let me know they are assuming I have another doctor UNBELIEVABLE. I have been having issues with the loop recorder and want it removed. I called in 2023 multiple times and spoke to their on call who said they would ensure they got the message -they were always out of the office or at lunch or something when I called. I was able to go online and schedule an appointment 3 -4 months out. Today 9/19/23 I received an automated message stating they had cancelled my appointment that was scheduled for 9/20/2023 and to call. I did speak to someone who told me that they dont handle loop recordeers and to call another number. DO NOT GET A LOOP RECORDER-they dont monitor they dont follow up with patients and they dont respond to messages left which they insist you leave. In research I have done the loop recorders should be removed after 3 years. Dr Amin had told me it just stays in your body. I am having major issues with the loop recorder moving around , trying to break through the skin. MY opinion is -- that is was an opportunity to make money from the company which is Medtronic and I am doubtful that it was even a necessary thing I had installed. I am beyond furious with this company. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I hope my experience is an isolated case and others have had a wonderful experience with their doctor and loop recorder. Just felt compelled to pass along my experience with others.

Lost consciousness 2X last year. I do NOT (and told him this when asked) have High Blood pressure. I was told I was standing too fast. Even when I told him my first fall was not directly after standing. Then it was ~ well some folks it takes a minute then they fall. As for the red pooled blood in BOTH my calves (I have Diastolic Disfunction) my skin is thinner due to my age (54 on March 1 - it's March 20). Then my portal says visit for edema.
