Intimidating and Bossy. In his 9 minutes with me for my first visit, He never listened to my heart. When I asked for a copy of my EKG, I was refused. Why have a Cardiologist if you are going to be treated like that for 9 minutes.?

A very good cardiologist and well mannered. Dr Gard made me feel comfortable during my 9-day hospital stay and performed a successful procedure. He can also become a comedian at times to get you to laugh and get your mind off of troubling thoughts. I highly recommend him. Thank you, Dr. Gard.

Medicine is a hard thankless calling. As I read some of the reviews I can see heartbroken people in both those meanings. There nothing guaranteed or sure about what Dr. Gard does; but he has the courage to try his best. As a patient, I am aware and regulate my almost God like expectation I have of my doctors. Nevertheless, Dr. Gard did free me from decades of life arresting arrhythmias. I went on to have cancer but his work gave me the strength to fight. When you are flat on your back fighting thru an episode of arrhythmias, you grow to be grateful and remember it doesn't have to be this good; and I don't have to be at all. Thank you Dr. Gard for your courage and insight. There were no promises but your work exceeded my prayers. Terry

Appointment went very well with Dr. Gard. I felt he listened to my concerns and gave me proper options for my care. He is not only my doctor but also sees my husband as well.

I was very pleased with my visits to see Dr. Gard. He was professional, kind and explained all procedures. I was scheduled for the procedures I needed and have completed them. I would return to him if any further care is needed. His office staff are quick to respond to email communications.
