Dr. Olshansky is inept at managing cases of inappropriate sinus tachycardia. He has not done an ablation in these cases in over a decade, and he intentionally misleads his patients about advanced treatment options when his medication cocktails land his patients in the hospital due to severe bradycardia and chest pain for days. He also refuses to give his patients their medical record upon request, which is required by law. Finally, he and his staff do not monitor implanted loop recorders for months at a time. Who knows what rhythms you are having since no one is actually paying any attentions, and they don't contact you when you have a new and alarming arrhythmia. This MD cannot be trusted.

As always Dr. Olshansky exceeds our expectations, he addresses the situation, makes sure I and my wife understand everything, and the results of the appointment and any procedures in the past or in the future. He is an exception human being!! We count ourselves blessed to have him on our side.

I always have someone room me in in a short time and the nurses are so kind. Dr. Olshansky always makes me feel like I am very important and he is very easy to talk to. I don't feel like he forgets me in between appointments. Also Becky is always so helpful whenever I call with a problem with my heart. Thank you to you all.
