Silver State Cardiology

I was scheduled for a phone appt. at 4:45pm. I called at 5:03pm and the answering service said apparently the appt. was not going to happen as they're closed for the day, as the phones were forwarded.The Dr. just called at 5:37pm, no apology for being almost an hour late without a heads up. He said he devotes so much time with his patients, and if I don't appreciate that, I'm welcome to see another Cardiologist. I said that's exactly what I plan to do. If a patient did that, we would be turned away, and charged for a missed appt. He is so stuck on himself and very arrogant.

First of all my husband and I are the type of patients who rarely complain. but this clinic is the WORST. We came here from a referral from our PCP. First visit, we were scheduled for an appointment but we waited for more than 3 hours to be seen. 2nd visit, we waited more than an hour to do my husband's EKG, echo and stress test. Last visit, we were waiting for more than 2 hours before finally walking out. I dont understand the point of a schedule if you make patients wait that long. Their reasons were also lame like computer problems, new patients or backlogs. I dont care, they should have work-a-rounds for these problems and not make their patients suffer waiting. They wont give back money that we paid for co-pay when we walked out. My PCP has been requesting for medical records since start of the month and NOTHING. I have been calling them and following up but front desk says they dont have phone number for billing, they also dont know phone number for the clinic manager. We also reported to the clinic when my husband experienced palpitations and chest pain after being given a prescription. Front desk only told us if we wanted to re-schedule or keep our next appointment. Like what?? Stay away from this clinic. I work in the medical field also but I do not do this to patients. Zero stars.

Front staff member very nice the Dr was getting frustrated because we don't speak good English. I told him sorry but didn't seek to care.

We found Dr. Parilak, when brother was having serious medical issues, my brother and myself, found him thorough, caring, and having a desire to find and fix any issues. Since my brother, Dr. Parilak now treats my mom, and would be my cardiologist, if they accepted my insurance. There can be a wait at times, but take I to consideration, how much time he spends with each patient. Not many doctors do that anymore. He's worth the wait, if you want a great cardiologist in your corner.

Besides the waiting time, it's been a wonderful experience. Been seeing him for 3 years now. Having been going to different doctors offices since I was 8, so 23 years. I appreciate a doctor who spends time with his patients. Who explains everything. Also goes into details of other possibilities. Who is personable. I'm not a typical case study. He looked at me as a whole. Not as one issue that's present. Highly recommend.
