Dr. Al Chekakie performed an A-Fib ablation on my mom. Post procedure she has been doing excellent. From her first office visit to follow up, Dr. Al Chekakie has shown compassion and concern for my mom's well being. This procedure gave her her life back.

As a healthcare professional of 30 Years, I have worked with hundreds of providers. This physician should NOT be practicing medicine. He does not use standard of care. He did a three hour procedure on my husband ( cardiac ablation ) with no sedation. NONE ! This is unheard of and cruel. He has caused harm to his patient and will be reported to State board, among others !
