Dr Asad Rizvi, MD

Dr. Rizvi did my angiogram and found that I need to have stents places to open the vessels. He explained everything with vocabulary that the layman could understand. He proved to me that he cares about his patients and does all he can to make them feel at ease. He stopped in before and after the procedure several times. He called my cardiologist right after the procedure and reported back to me what they discussed. He made a stressful situation much less stressful. Wonderful doctor.

I found Dr. Rizvi, his staff, and the staff of the Cath Lab to be highly professional and caring. Dr. Rizvi spent over an hour explaining the procedure to my wife and me prior to the operation. Afterwards he explained the outcome (which I wasn't happy about) to me. Good doctor!

I have been seeing Dr Risvi for several years now. I have always had a good experience with him, he does not leave until all my questions or concerns are answered. One of the best cardiologists I have ever had.

Dr Rizvi was prepared to conclude my father's appointment without discussing medication. We were concerned about the need to continue with one drug because of the side effects. His response was "Oh yes, stop taking the Metoprolol." Why would he not have reviewed the medications as part of the appointment routine? Was not reassured about Dr. Rizvi's level of skill.

Failed to provide Interventional Cardiologist performing angioplasty with patient's directive to not perform an emergency bypass if a problem was encountered during the procedure.
