Mark P. Tanenbaum

Dr Tanenbaum is a very caring physician who cares about his patients. I have been his patient for over ten years and have received from him nothing but consideration, kindness, and an excellent way of explaining complex medical issues to me. As long as I can, I will remain his patient.

Dr. Tannenbaum and his staff are competent, efficient, and compassionate. He goes above and beyond in his thoroughness to find the cause of your health issue and is dedicated to treating you as an entire person not just a condition.

After having a coronary CTA scan which revealed some mixed results, Dr. Tanenbaum was assigned to me for a consultation since my regular cardiologist was otherwise engaged. All I can say is that Dr. Tanenbaum exhibited the utmost attention to my case and demonstrated a calm demeanor, explaining the intricacies of the results of my scan, and most importantly allayed my fears about the findings. In summary, Dr. Tanenbaum came across as a kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable cardiologist who was unstinting with his professional advice, notwithstanding that I was not his regular patient.

I had a horrible experience with Dr. Tanenbaum. I have a cardiac birth defect which has been monitored every few years all my life. At age 45 I got my regular echo and went to see Dr. Tanenbaum for a standard consult. He told me that I had an enlarged right ventricle and would likely need valve surgery. This result was unexpected and upsetting. However, the echo report, which I later received, did not indicate an enlarged right ventricle. I had a follow-up stress-echo and cardiac MRI. Both confirmed regular right ventricle function. Additionally, Virginia Heart has not canceled another follow-up visit despite two requests to cancel the appointment.

I have an appointment at 2:45 have been sitting here for one hour and 15 minutes waiting on him to see me White make an appointment if you’re going to spend half your day at the doctor Went out and asked why I hadn’t even seen he sitting in his office doing nothing it look like I’m sure he saw many patients that come in after me totally unacceptable and you wonder why people have high blood pressure
