I'm really happy I decided to go see Dr. Sullenberger. He has a great reputation with many of my family members who he provides care for. I'm 42 and a healthy guy but have some family history that was concerning to me that I wanted to get in front of. Feeling much better now that I have a good plan in place that he will oversee.
Dr. Sullenburger is an exceptional physician who actively engages in conversations with you, prioritizing your well-being. He offers valuable guidance on enhancing heart health, recognizing that achieving perfection in diet and exercise is not always feasible. Instead of criticism, he highlights the benefits of incorporating healthy habits into our cardiac care routine as we age. Each time my husband or I undergo a test with Dr. Sullenburger, he promptly contacts me personally with the results. This is a doctor who values thoroughness in his consultations and ensures that you receive immediate feedback on any tests ordered. His professionalism is truly impressive, not to mention his impeccable demeanor. It is disheartening for me when my physician appears overweight and unkempt, qualities that Dr. Sullenburger does not possess. He enters the room looking sharp and healthy, making me more inclined to trust his advice compared to someone who is overweight and sloppily dressed, in my personal opinion.
The front desk staff are friendly and efficient. Dr Sullenberger's assistants are skilled at their job. And Dr Sullenberger was open and welcoming. He brought me up to date with my medical history and was very satisfied with the results of the tests from today. I would recommend him to all of my friends.
Lance Sullenberger is not only a brilliant doctor, but a kind one with an incredible bedside manner. He treats his patients like equals, instead of condescending, and thoughtfully addresses every concern. Because Dr. Sullenberger actually listened, he figured out that the root cause of my high blood pressure was hypothyroidism--after multiple other doctors, including an endocrinologist, failed to diagnose it. Lastly, the entire staff respects patients' time. I am always seen promptly and given test results immediately. All medical practices should be run this way!
I have been a patient of Dr. Sullenberger for many years. He's a wonderful cardiologist and a great person. He's very knowledgeable, kind and reassuring. Dr. Sullenberger takes time to answer questions and provide thorough explanations. He never appears rushed and is very caring. He's the only doctor i have who personally calls to provide test results and interprets them when I need him to. He explains what next steps are recommended and what I can do to improve and maintain my heart health. I really can't say enough good things about him!
