Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very good listener!
Attentive listens to every word ask questions about what he is hearing not what he thinks and there definitely is a big difference. I am very satisfied with him. You feel very very comfortable around him and asking the question you want to ask without feeling intimidated.

What a Physician should be
Dr. Tenaglia is as fine a physician (and gentleman) as you will ever meet. Caring, patient, a superb listener who is soft but direct. His credentials are exceptional, by education (top medical, fellowship schools), board certifications and experience (cardiology chairperson, medical school professor). As an diagnostician and interventional cardiologist, you could not ask for more. Excellence expected, excellence delivered.

Simply an exceptional Doctor. I've been a patient of Dr. Tenaglia for over 10 years, and I have no doubt that if it weren't for Dr. Tenaglia, I would not be here today. His knowledge and professionalism are second to none. 2 prior cardiologists were not as thorough as Dr. Tenaglia, and I have no doubt that was the reason I had poorly controlled blood pressure and declining health for far to long. Regular test and screenings have greatly helped diagnose and treat my cardiovascular health and recommendations have helped my overall health to recover. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Tenaglia.

BEST CARDIOLOGIST & TEAM in AZ. Have a complex problem & went thru 3-4 'great cardios'(who were 'jerks.' Saw Dr. Tenaglia & he is trying to figure things out but not a miracle worker. However even before seeing me he ordered a X-Ray(I requested) & found something that could be serious. He CARES about his patients. After 3 visits with Dr. Tenaglia went to Mayo & their Cardio was an IMO an utter jerk. Doubt he read my medical history, insulting, degrading - Have filed a formal complaint with Mayo about him. In stark contrast Dr. Tenaglia LISTENS & reviews everything. He is kind, compassionate & wonderful. HE SHOULD BE AT MAYO CARDIOLOGY. If you have problems with current cardio - please fire him & see Dr. Tenaglia - you will thank me. He was born to be a M.D. & appears to love his work. He is great with patients. Prior to him had a 'quack' at another Scottsdale Cardio Center who would have driven me stark raving mad. I stayed with him for 1 year & regret it deeply.

Dr Tenaglia is fabulous. I first met him nearly a decade ago when I was managing my mother's care following her stroke, then went to him myself when I needed to. He is simply the best.

I see Dr. Alan Tenaglia at Scottsdale Cardiovascular Center and he has been fantastic. He does an excellent job of explaining to me the best courses of action in getting better, and is a very compassionate man who seems to care about his patients. The whole office staff is awesome as well - they respond quickly to emails and are always very knowledgeable. I wish more doctor offices ran like Scottsdale Cardiovascular Center!
