    Dr. Patel is very knowledgeable on the things he talks about, also practices what he preaches.

    Great Experience with Dr. Sami…read more My husband was able to get an appointment with Dr. Sami within just two weeks of requesting a new cardiology appointment, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a great experience with Dr. Sami. He had excellent bedside manner and took the time to address our concerns regarding hypertension. Dr. Sami ordered the appropriate tests and labs to help establish the right treatment plan and ensure my husband's hypertension can be properly monitored moving forward. We felt comfortable with the care and attention he provided. One recommendation for anyone having an echocardiogram or a coronary calcium score/heart scan using a CT scanner: Before paying out of pocket through the cardiologist's office, I highly recommend checking with your insurance company first. We were initially told that the heart scan was not covered by our insurance and were encouraged to schedule the imaging through the office. Instead, we decided to contact our insurance provider directly to verify. Thankfully, our insurance approved the request, and we were able to have the scan done for only $9 out of pocket, compared with the $140 we were quoted through Dr. Sami's office. Overall, we had a very positive experience with Dr. Sami and would recommend him. Just be sure to verify imaging coverage and pricing with your insurance provider before paying out of pocket, it can make a significant difference!

    At my 75 year old mother's urging (although this office supposedly remotely reads her bp checks but…read moredid call the day it was concerningly high...), I became a patient of Dr. Sami's for 2 years. In those 2 years, I spent nearly $2,000 on tests, was limited to one day a out of the week for visits b/c he is too busy working at several other locations and if I'm going to see the doctor I want to see a doctor and not his PA, questionable billing and bills, a confused yet polite staff (that's the 1 star), but a doctor with a rude and unacceptably mean bedside manner. This is from a heart-healthy patient who is fully aware of family cardiovascular history and simply wanted to establish a proactive relationship...I have since found a more compatible & available cardiovascular specialist.
