LeConte Cardiology Associates - Sevierville

Sheryl Hill is the best! In fact, everyone at LeConte is wonderful. Sheryl and the cardiologist team literally saved my life! Even though I still have a road ahead of me, I am ever so grateful and I am so looking forward to a beautiful future! Thank you!!!

I was recently referred to Lorrie Tate by my primary care physician. I have multiple autoimmune diseases and health issues, so it's not always easy getting a clear diagnosis. In all honesty, I was not looking forward to seeing yet another doctor, but I was pleasantly surprised. I was given an appointment in what I consider a very prompt manner. My wait in the waiting room was minimal, and I was quickly escorted back by her nurse Kelly, who quickly put me at ease with her friendly manner and expert care. Within minutes of Kelly leaving the exam room, Lorrie came in. I was not kept waiting at all. Lorrie was attentive in her listening to me describe my symptoms and immediately ordered an echocardiogram as well as a holter monitor. She, and her whole team were wonderful, and I am very grateful. I was given a follow up appointment for 3 weeks and I am confident that I will be able to get the answers I need working with this incredible team.

1st impression my Dr was impressive, unfortunately. I was misdiagnosed andmy dostor really could see past my being fat to find my problem.i was told point blank to stop thinking on 1500 cal a day diet ,that was supposed to fix it.thank god I moved did ho on under2500 fall diet,but that dosent stop inflamation when your diaphragm has stopped working.i was diag eith copd.my new lung dr and heart dr at blount memorial found no body's I'm fat .but sat is a symptom and I'm 60 and fat for many reasons ,not because I dont know how to diet,or because I sit around eating all the time.not getting the proper help was confusing frustrating and I did have a heart attack but now I'm not only getting well .I'm getting healthy.and it's because I think for myself .and I'm loosing weight easily niw.because I'm focused on health..not calories and stopped taking advice from arrogant uninformed dr.i advise anyone at this office to weight carefully your advice..you are the one responsible for your life not your dr.

If you want a provider that's warm and cuddly and is going to tell you what you want to hear and protect your delicate feelings, then you've come to the wrong place. But if you want somebody that's intelligent, informed, dedicated to their profession and is going to give you the hard, cold facts that could save your life, than Dr. Riedel is your man.

3 cancelled appt, all cancelled by them, in the last 3 months!!! I received 30 day heart rate monitor results over the phone, from a nurse no less. Can't seem to be seen here, and it takes sometimes months to get another appt!!! So if I die bc I can't be seen.....there will be repercussions!! Switching drs as of today, bc again....my appt for today got cancelled!!
