Dr. Plisance is my husband's cardiologist and now mine. He treated my husband for Atrial Fibrillation, Did an Ablation and sent my husband to a hematologist when his blood volume and hemoglobin levels were down to half of the normal range. This doctor has wonderful bedside manner, spends ample time with you and makes you feel like he cares! I am an RN and in every sense he is professional, and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Plisance!

My husband was a patient at Grandview Medical Center for 3 weeks, he passed away on 11-2-18 in the hospital. Dr. Plaisance was his admitting Cardiologist and followed him daily along with several other specialist. I have worked in a hospital for over 30 years and can truthfully say I have never seen a more compassionate physician. In the last hour before my husband passed away Dr. Plaisance stayed with our family, he prayed with us and for us, held our hand and helped us through the most painful time in my life. I left the hospital that evening knowing medically all that could and should have been done was done and credit Dr. Plaisance for the wonderful care my husband received. Joy Warren

At first I walked into this place and was handed a square thing that lights up and vibrates when it's my turn so automatically I think great another busy doctors office where your just a number. But as I was called to each station I realized these people are nice, they are asking me questions and care about my health. Now I wouldn't go anywhere else. Every test was done in the same building on the same day as my appointment. The worked me in, and it didn't take all day either. Dr. Plaisance sat down with me and discussed my issues, my options and long term care. I am an RN myself and I don't work for this company but this will always be my place for cardio care.
