Apogee Medical Associates

So I'm 56 and I absolutely love my nurse practitioner, she is very knowledgeable and thorough. I have to say I trust her with my life, meaning my health, I'm a grandmother of 2 boys ages 4 and 5 . She knows that I live for those children. She sent me to De , 2nd time with him after a year. At that time he excused me and said lose weight. Ok yeah that's obvious, like I haven't tried? I'm not feeling well & again referred. I suggest do not waste your time! He dismissed me until next year? No testing of any origin. And my husband who with another doctor was excellent, but his practice does not accept our insurance.

This guy Dr De saw my dad at Fawcett hospital and in my opinion has been negligent to my father's care. He did a procedure where they shock your heart, gave no instruction afterwards that he should follow-up with his office asap within 3 days. Or that he should be wearing a heart monitor to give data on how the procedure worked. We found out after a few days of being out of the hospital from another cardiologist that he should have been seen within 3 days NOT TWO WEEKS LATER. This guys office said "sorry no other appointments" I'm sorry but I've worked in a specialists office before and they absolutely make earlier appointments for patients who have procedures done. My father was supposed to get a heart monitor from the Dr office to monitor what had been going on and he failed to do anything of the sort. I would NOT RECOMMEND such a negligent "Dr"!

Dr De saved my life by quickly getting to the hospital when I had my heart attack 4 years ago. He placed his stents without having to do invasive open heart surgery saving a lot of pain and recovery time.

Dr De and his staff are top notch. Over the last several years my wife and I have been treated by Dr De. He is extremely professional and personal in every aspect of the words. We feel that he treats us as family. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!! I cannot give this man enough praise. He took the time to explain in detail the procedures and expected results. His staff has gone "above and beyond" many times for us.

Dr.De saw me today and advised me that I need cardiac catheterization for left coronary artery I was nervous and still am but he tried so hard to make me feel comfortable and he did give me comfort. I am going in on April 13,2021 to have the procedure done. I have had a few more appointments with this guy and my opinion has changed. He is not the doctor for me. He talks down to you and when he gave us our stress test, he told my wife you're gonna be fine. You're not gonna die of a heart attack and to me he went maybe he is unprofessional and he is not a qualified doctor. He has no bedside manner and I would not recommend this man at all. If you wanna see a real cardiologist competent cardiologist you go to the SMH first physicians group cardiology team, whether you see the ones in Sarasota north or the ones down by Venice they are much more competent than this office
