Anirudh Bhargava, MD

I really enjoyed my visit with Dr. Bhargava. As a health advocate and medical writer, I pay close attention to how physicians interact with patients, and I was genuinely impressed with his bedside manner. He was attentive, patient, and understanding, especially when addressing anxiety about cardiovascular health. I asked several questions, and he listened carefully and answered each one thoroughly, without ever seeming rushed or annoyed. This is exactly the kind of care I encourage patients to look for in a good physician. Overall, this was the most pleasant experience I've had with a doctor, and I look forward to seeing him again. If you're hesitant about visiting a cardiologist, I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Dr. Bhargava. It's a great step toward protecting your heart health

The office staff and tech were nice, helpful, and efficient. They did get me back early so that I saw the cardiologist at my actual appointment time. I felt like the cardiologist (Dr. Bhargava) lacked clinical knowledge in the area marked on his online profile. I was given very vague answers and advice. I learned more from my online research and book reading than I did from him.

I'm an older woman and after my previous Cardiologist retired I was referred to Dr Bhargavi. I am so grateful to have him as my doctor. He is kind and listens to any concerns that I may have. I can't give him too many accolades. He is great.

Good bedside manner. Dr. Bhargava shared some warning signs and next steps. Hee saw things no other doctors have mentioned. It was nice to receive comprehensive healthcare for a change.

Spoke with me as an equal for the most part and came up with a good plan. His response to one question I had with regard to hormones was seemingly dismissed, which bothered me. However, it could have been the fact that it's not his area of expertise. Though, it was with relation to my heart. He didn't look at the notes first to see I was taking the right medications before responding negatively to what he assumed to be a half effort toward HRT - I have an exceptional, award-winning gynecologist who I have been treated by for seven years. I think cardiologists should be well-versed with how hormones affect the heart, and not simply dismiss it or disregard its importance. I have hormonal issues and they are hereditary - this was important to me. It may have do with the fact that he is a man - women doctors are typically more in tune with this and understand how hormones effect every system in your body. Also, he should read the notes thoroughly before jumping in. Outside of that, he was respectful, thoughtful to his approach in our discovery/investigation phase with regard to testing and overall diagnostics, and he held eye contact and shook my hand upon both entry and departure. He seems young, so the former items may be growth areas for him to consider, especially when dealing with women, of all ages.
