A very busy doctor but a good one! Staff is excellent and very nice and helpful. Would definately recommend him to anyone. I was having palpations and his staff had me in the same day and even called me the next day with a cancelation for my follow-up appt. Can't ask for more I don't think.

Dr. Hayek is the best! His bedside manner is great. when I had heart surgery in2007 he came to see me and stayed awhile to talk to my husband and I. In fact he was the one who finally found my problem even after another heart spc said he was 98 percent sure that I DID NOT have a heart problem, doc Hayek asked me questions in his office and said he was 80 percent sure I t was a heart problem. He did a catheriztion and woke me enough to show me the xray where my problem was on the back of my heart. He and my PC doc literally saved my life in 2007. Dr Hayek has the best people working for him, all curtious and most of all they are patient and caring professionals. Can't say enough for Dr Hayek, he's the best!

Dr. Hayek performed tests and found the problem I was having with my heart. He also talked to a specialist at Cleveland Clinic that pioneered a treatment for it. He interned at Cleveland Clinic, so knew the right people to send me to. I credit Dr. Hayek with saving my life. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Hayek is an excellent cardiologist. I went to him after a prominant cardiologist retired. Even though my previous doctor was ranked so very high, I received better medical care after becoming Dr. Hayek's patient.
