Atria Heart in Collaboration with HonorHealth - Biltmore

Dr Cherukuri is one of the best physicians I have been a patient of over the past 25 years. Great knowledge base and possibly the best bedside manner of them all. I would highly recommend him to those who may need the services he provides.

Dr Chintal Patel is my cardiologist. There are a few things that I value in a provider and the most important is, "excellent patient care that results in better outcomes". My expectations are realistic with my complex health history but the impact to my quality of life has been significant compared to my care under a previous cardiologist. I was frequently in the emergency room which led to multiple admissions due to hypertensive crisis and angina. I was fortunate to meet Dr Patel on one of those admissions. He was able to efficiently work through a complete assessment and trial medications with a PRN or as needed medication schedule to safely manage at home. He diagnosed new conditions and effectively treated them. The communication with me while I was in the hospital with numerous test was optimal. There were no lost days spent waiting on the plan of care to move forward. I felt like he valued my time and I was part of the plan of care. The communication between the hospital and his office was seamless. As a patient I have been to multiple locations for routine care and diagnostics. The office staff, scheduling and medical assistants are polite, friendly and professional. That fact is a result of setting the bar high and maintaining it. I have been a patient for multiple years and have not had one problem or delay with communication via the patient portal or through staff. Another example of time sensitive care is when I have needed cardiac clearance for procedures. His office recognized the urgency and it was promptly scheduled. Dr Patel is able to communicate about disease process and expectations in a clear manner and he also checks for comprehension. I value clear communication. If I had a family member I would highly encourage that they become his patient because he is passionate about his profession and it shows. His office runs smoothly and on time which is refreshing. Take Care !

What can I say? Dr Cherukuri is an amazing physician in absolutely every aspect of medical care, not only in his mastery of Cardiology but in his bedside manner as well. Dr Cherukuri has been the most compassionate and caring physician I have encountered in my 68 years of life and I've seen hundreds of doctors during that time. He never rushes my visits and he always listens intently on what I have to say without being distracted by his phone, etc. He makes me feel as if I'm his only patient and truly cares about my health. At one time, because of the terrible traffic, I had thought of changing cardiologists to one closer to my home. However, and especially after my last office visit, I decided that I'd rather drive the hour and put up with the traffic to see him because he is so worth it! Please don't hesitate to choose him as your Cardiologist, you will not regret it!

Dr Cherukuri is a fantastic and thoughtful provider. He listen to my symptoms, conducted a full exam and came up with a full treatment plan. I am very thankful that he is willing to do a deep dive into my symptoms, instead of just dismissing me.

Love love love Dr. Vidali. She's smart and personable. I don't usually see her at this location - and found this one (Biltmore) dark and dreary (no windows). Waited longer for the doc in the exam room after my pre-op EKG here than I normally experience.
