I found Dr. Harrison listened to what I had to say during a very stressful and health uncertainty time. I was hospitalized several months AFTER having had Covid-19.

Dr. Harrison sits down and actually listens to what you have to say. Then discusses with you what he thinks and what he wants to do. Very easy to talk to and work with. Not pushy.

I had a great overall experience. Staff had me back to see doctor Harrison within a matter of minutes. My consultant was very in-depth and I felt that nothing was left on the table when leaving. Highly recommend!

Dr. Harrison is a good cardiologist; however, his staff is bringing him down. They never return calls or schedule timely follow up visits- then lie to cover their tracks. It is a shame that such a nice and knowledgeable doctor has to deal with such insubordination. Don't put your self through the agony of dealing with this staff.

Palmetto Heart is fortunate to have the expertise and man with the big heart as a doctor in their practice. I have been a patient of Dr. Harrison for several years. I find him to be extremely professional, direct, friendly, and sincere. He has a wonderful bedside manner and has a way of explaining things that makes it easy for a non medical person to understand. He makes one feel as if you are his only patient as he talks with you and NOT AT you! I trust his judgement and recommendations. I highly recommend him to everyone who needs a heart doctor with a heat.
