Shaiv save my life 16 years ago. I was in heart failure with an EF of 10 (normal is 55-65.) He has continued to guide, instruct and listen to my input. I watch as the people in his office continually improve around his presence. I would never change cardiologist. But, I do hope to outlive his career.

I am a current patient of six years. Dr. Kapadia is a wonderful cardiologist. He listens, cares, and is especially knowledgeable of my cardio conditions and treatment options. I moved away from the area for a year and am so thankful that I was able to continue my cardiology care with him since moving back. Also, the staff is kind and professional. Dr. Kapadia is a great asset to the cardio community.
