My heart beats because of Dr. Martinez. Literally! Dr. Martinez responded to an emergency call on a Saturday afternoon and for the next month made sure that I received the BEST care possible while recovering in the hospital from several heart episodes. This same level of care has continued for the last six years. Equally impressive has been the commitment and care that he always extends to my family. And as if all this isnâ??t enough, he has the best P.A. ever. Robert Henning is an amazing compliment to Dr. Martinez and between the two of them, they always get it right.

Dr. Martinez truly looks directly at you and listens intently to you. He is caring, intelligent and goes the extra mile. He also has a way to uncover the truth and holds you to your commitments, like daily walking, diet, etc. We met almost 15 years ago when he helped to diagnose my husband's mysterious illness. He uncovered an unrelated heart valve problem that he followed closely for 10 years and personally selected the doctor and hospital that operated and gave him a new lease on life.

Dr.Martinez saved my Dad's life. He is one of the best cardiologists I've ever came into contact with. His bed side manners are exceptional. He treats patients and family mambers with respect, he spends as much time as you need to go over all questions you have. He explains tests and procedures in every detail and always makes sure you understand every word. You don't wait in his office. His staff is very well trained and calles always returned promptly. He is great in the cath lab. After his procedures we had no complications and he is always on top of things.
