Heart and Vascular Clinic: Anand Balachandran, MD

Dr. AB is the best in the business in Cardiology! His NPs Tia & Molly are incredibly warm, caring, & their front office staff is 10/10! They even remembered my first name checking in and they have to see at least hundreds of patients a week. Everyone in this practice cares about the patients. They are very efficient and work hard. I'm so grateful my Primary Care referred me to Dr. AB! I've had a complex medical case after Long Covid and dysautonomia. UAB trusted my care to Dr. AB & that says a lot I've had a 30 day heart monitor, echo, chemical stress test, 3D heart model & ultrasound. I have peace of mind knowing nothing is being missed nor do I feel that Dr. AB was ordering any unnecessary tests. I appreciate his thorough care & listening to me as a patient. I wish more doctors & staff were like here. Your heart will be in the best of hands.

Dr. AB is the best vascular doctor I have ever seen. My PCP recommended him for a stress test and he was so caring and kind. He took the time to listen to me and he explained my symptoms and my next steps carefully to my understanding. He is the best!!!

Absolutely love Dr AB and his staff but getting a return call is practically impossible. Also the patient portal is extremely difficult to access and if you do by some miracle get access, it will not send your message. I have been waiting 4 days for a call back on a medication issue.

My husband was at his office for an appt and at the end I asked if Dr. AB had experience with POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia), intending to make an appt if he did. He actually saw me right then, had a couple of tests run and went over everything regarding some additional issues they found, plus the POTS. I have additional testing being done at the end of the month. Wonderful Dr! Takes the time to explain everything, listens to your answers anf asks you questions as well! Plus the staff is just super nice and accommodating, even on a Saturday when they had to help a last minute, new patient.

He is awesome. He cares about his patients. He takes time to listen to you no matter how long it takes. I love him and highly recommend him.
