After my annual physical, my doctor recommended that I see my cardiologist who has been my cardiologist for many years, but my wife recommended a fresh pair of eyes she's been a patient of Dr Pilip and has been very satisfied. I went to see him that Friday make a long story short. I am 2 1/2 weeks out from triple bypass he saved my life. His office is professional. His people are thorough. I would recommend him to anybody and everybody who's looking for a great doctor

I unfortunately had a very concerning and uncomfortable two visits at this office. As a new patient I was recommended to his office from a friend. The reason I saw a cardiologist in the first place was after having an abnormal ekg at my annual physical and having a history of a heart murmur.
My first visit I had vitals taken (no temp), however a temp was charted- false charting #1, I had an ekg done which showed some abnormalities. I then saw an NP or PA who told me I needed an echo, stress test and a halter monitor. Pilip came in for 30 seconds, reiterated when the NP/PA had just told me and walked out.
No one EVER performed a physical exam on me. Not once did anyone touch me with a stethoscope, palpate a pulse, nothing. I had said i had a history of a murmur yet no one listened to my heart. AT A CARDIOLOGIST. In my chart it was charted my s1 and s2 were normal- false charting #2 no one auscultated my heart. I also see that my chief complaint was external SOB. i never ever stated that that was why i was there as i don't have SOB. No exam and was sent for all these tests. So i did the echo, the stress test, and wore the halter because my EKG did show a PVC. Today i go back because they said my stress test was abnormal and to return my halter monitor- and now needed to go for an echo stress. What was abnormal about my stress test was I had complained of shortness of breath after completing the entirety of the test. So they took that as concerning, which i take responsibility for that and misinterpreted that. I wasn't SOB i was just breathing at a faster rate than normal due to the exercise. And was told we have to send you for an echo stress because "in court if that's charted we have to further evaluate" okay fair, ironic they want to talk about charting and court. then see on my stress test report that I stated I was on beta blockers- never said that, I'm on no meds. False charting #3.
So i expressed these concerns to the NP and then she had to go search for a stethoscope and finally listen to my heart and said yeah we do still hear a murmur. Thanks for checking the first time And not just checking because i had to advocate for myself. I was so uncomfortable with the false charting and no exam at all. No listening to my heart at the cardiologist really is insane. I am absolutely taken back and will never go to this office again.

Dr. Adalbert Pilip is, without a doubt, the most incredible primary care physician my wife and I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. We recently visited him together for our annual physicals, and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we stepped into his office, we felt welcomed and cared for in a way that is rare in today's healthcare system. Dr. Pilip's warm demeanor and genuine interest in our well-being immediately put us at ease, and it was clear from the start that we were in the hands of a truly exceptional doctor.
What sets Dr. Pilip apart is his unparalleled attentiveness. He took the time to listen to everything we had to say, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant our concerns might have been. He didn't just rush through the appointment like so many other doctors do; instead, he made us feel like we were his top priority. He asked thoughtful questions, engaged in meaningful conversations about our health, and truly sought to understand our individual needs and challenges. It was evident that he genuinely cared about us as people, not just as patients.
One of the highlights of our visit was how thorough Dr. Pilip was in addressing every aspect of our health. He carefully reviewed all of our prescribed medications as well as the over-the-counter supplements we take, explaining their interactions and ensuring that everything we were using was safe and effective. This level of detail gave us a newfound confidence in our treatment plans and a deeper understanding of how to manage our health. It's rare to find a doctor who takes the time to go over these details so meticulously, and it was a testament to his dedication to providing the highest level of care.
Dr. Pilip also went above and beyond in helping us stay on track with our diets and overall wellness. He didn't just give generic advice; he provided tailored, practical recommendations that fit our lifestyles and goals. His encouragement and guidance made us feel empowered to make positive changes, and his approach was both realistic and motivating. It's clear that he is deeply invested in helping his patients achieve long-term health and well-being.
What truly sets Dr. Pilip apart from other doctors we've seen is his accessibility and commitment to being there for his patients. Unlike many physicians who simply tell you to go to urgent care if you're feeling unwell, Dr. Pilip encouraged us to call his office directly if we ever need help. This level of availability and support is incredibly rare and speaks volumes about his dedication to his patients. Knowing that we have a doctor who is willing to be there for us in times of need gives us an immense sense of security and trust.
Dr. Pilip's kindness, professionalism, and expertise are unmatched. He has a remarkable ability to make you feel heard, valued, and cared for, and his passion for his work shines through in every interaction. My wife and I left his office feeling not only healthier but also more confident in our ability to manage our health with his guidance. He is truly a partner in our health journey, and we are so grateful to have found him.
If you are looking for a primary care doctor who goes above and beyond in every way, look no further than Dr. Adalbert Pilip. He is a rare gem in the medical field, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Dr. Pilip, for your unwavering dedication, compassion, and commitment to excellence. You have set the bar incredibly high, and we are so fortunate to have you as our doctor!
