Dr. Fileccia has cared for 3 of my family members, and now for me. He listens and shows concern while giving the best medical treatment possible. His team at ACS are a one stop efficient medical care center. They are kind, helpful, and very impressive. We have had nothing but great quality care by Dr. Fileccia and ACS.

I waited 1 hour 45 minutes before asking the receptionist if there was an emergency. She said they "just had a lot of patients booked." I asked how much longer - she had no idea. An appointment is when two parties agree to meet at or around the SAME TIME. This was so disrespectful of my time, and such sloppy, unprofessional scheduling. Unfortunately, this is the way ALL the docs at Ark-la-tex Cardiology treat their patients.
