Dr. Holger Patricio Salazar, MD

Dr. SALAZAR is a physician who gives his patients 110%. He has is so caring and concerned with the well being of his patients healthcare needs, he answers questions and explains in a very understanding manner. I feel privileged to be his patient.

Dr Salazar is a good cardiologist and has taken care of my husband, when our daughter developed a heart condition resulting in many trips to the ER I felt that surely Dr Salazar would take care of our family as I thought he took my families care seriously. After calling for 3 days and told they would see if he could fit us in, I never got called with an apt and was told it may be a month wait!! Called to ask to see another Dr, anyone at Stern. Left many messages on the recorder, and never received a call back. Stern Cardiovascular has gotten to big for their britches and the care of their patients and family are suffering. Very hurt and disappointed and don't know what to do about my daughter but call every doctor I can and beg them to see her.

I've been seeing Dr. Salazar for about 7 years now. He is wonderful and I find that he is very concerned and blunt about what he thinks is the best form of treatment. I have done recommended him to several people who feel the same way I do. My health over these years has improved immensely.

I wish more doctors were like Dr. Salazar. He is an excellent doctor. He wants to get you better, not just to keep returning. I am so much better because of him and I understand my condition because of his patience in dealing with me and my medical problems.

I was most impressed by how poor of a listener Dr. Salazar is. In an effort tto provide him with helpful medical history and background, he projected a dismissive attitude. Not necessarily rude, but more that he is oblivious to the importance of partnershipping with the patient and that he knows best, therefore, the patient's input/feedback holds minimal value to him. I would not recommend this doctor.
