This dr didn't care about anything I said. I told him I could not take beta blockers however he told me I must so on his advice I tried them again and ended up in such a bad situation trembling couldn't breathe and heart flip-flopping all over the place. He treated me like I was crazy that there's no way beta blockers could do that to me . would never see him again

He can be reserved, but he saved my life with his diagnosis and did not immediately rush to invasive procedures. I can put up with his reserve because I got such good results with him!
