We left the area and now I’m in Central FL. There is no other Dr like him. He is very compassionate and also miss Kay who worked in the Pacer clinic! Thank you for such good care.

According to all of the nurses I've talked to is the problem with Dr. Sensequa is that there is only one of him. He has kept my husband alive for many years in spite of all of his cardiac problems.

We meet the doctor at hosp. My husband had stroke and a fatal heart beat . He came very late after repeated calling. Talked to us. We were under impresstion. That he would do the nessary procedures on my husband in a few months. The internist wanted the Doctor to visit us. But never showed up. Then got certi. letter saying he was no longer his Doctor. I called his office several times . And Dr. Sensecqua couldn't return my call. Telling me why not. My husband was very sick. By doing this Dr.Sensecqua left us without a heart doctor getting out of the hosp. The hosp. said he was a hot shot Doctor. Would you after this.? Maybe we are better off.
