This doctor needs to go back to med school, and he must have paid someone to receive his degree. I asked at least 10 questions about the heart, and he couldn't answer even ONE of them. He had no recommendations, and was very rude (as well as the staff). I'm educated, hold a good job (working for a doctor), and he talked to me like I'm stupid. He is the idiot!! Then, his staff is withholding MY medical records from me because I told them I'm going to see a different doctor!! I had to threaten a complaint to the medical board for them to say they would get my records. Terrible, terrible "doctor" and staff!

I was sent to him before a surgery...his nurse did all pre-testing questions..he only came in the test room for a second, shook my hand and that was it, never saw or spoke to him again...he didn't care...oh and in middle of my tests they said he had left to go on a long weekend...
