Dr. Appleby is always kind, concerned, encouraging and very thorough. He asks all the right questions and has the personality that encourages me to truthfully confide my conditions without pressing me for the answers. He always addresses my conditions whether they are related to cardio or not. I trust him and his judgement to all his recommendations about my health and staying healthy because he is so smart. Thank you Dr. Appleby for caring.

It’s always a pleasure visiting Dr. Appleby with my wife. He’s always was very personable and knowledgeable about all things medical. And you never have to wait more than five minutes in his waiting room to see him.
