Patient Reviews

Well it sucks having to go to a cardiologist, but if you got to go you not only want quality personnel, but a staff that makes you feel safe and comfortable. Elaina, who has been there for 10 years has always greeted me with warmth and a huge smile. She is not only extremely professional, but is super about keeping you relaxed. Her attitude probably kept my BP ten points lower. I can't say enough about Katie who is the PA at ACC. Her expertise and friendly demeanor is unmatched. She is very thorough about creating a game plan for my heart health. I'm fortunate to have her in my corner. I can't forget about Kristen who is in charge of scheduling. She is hilarious and makes sure I leave with a smile! I've been a patient with ACC for 7 years and wouldn't choose any other cardiologist.

I was experiencing some mild troubling symptoms so I made an appointment. The doctor and Physician's assistant were so kind and very thorough. All my tests came back normal and they were amazing at explaining everything and spending plenty of time with me. Definitely recommend.

I'm happy with the quality of care I'm receiving here. However, there have been some complications with scheduling.
Issue 1: I made an appointment with Zodoc - an online scheduling platform offered on their website. I scheduled it for 12pm on the next day. I received an email saying the appointment was pending and I should await an email confirmation. The email confirmation came the following morning and it came with the notification that the appointment had been moved up to 11am. This left me with some work-related scrambling to do in order to ensure I could make the appointment.
Issue 2: I needed to return a piece of equipment to the office. So, I rushed out of work at 3:40pm in order to make it to their offices before they closed at 4:30pm. I arrived at 4:15pm to find the offices closed early.
I really only take issue with the fact that the scheduling platform is offered on their site as an option. If that is not the offices' preferred method of scheduling, don't offer it. The same for office hours. They are clearly posted as open until 4:30pm. It's fine if the offices close at 4pm - just update your info so that patients may plan accordingly.

I decided to cancel all my future appointments with this practice. The staff is void of human emotion, and doesn't keep patients informed of test results, etc. Also the doctor questioned the authenticity of my pain as if i had an ulterior motive for wasting his time.
