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.

Quick and efficient !

Dr Jost has been my heart sdocxtor for the last twenty years and has saved my life at least three to four times, including the Widow Maker in 2015. Sure it is hard to understand what he is saying at times. After 8 heart stents I am here at 78.

I had stress testing performed at SW Cardio this past fall . Follow up with Dr Jost , he didn’t articulate or speak much he had his assistant do that but was present . Stated he may of seen a shadow and I needed a Cardio Left Catheterization and needs to go in and take a look. Not very convincing about procedure . I decided to get a second opinion from another Cardiologist with the same testing records . Turns out I have no problems and no procedure is necessary. Troublesome to me to say the least.

When it comes to Dr. Jost, I feel as if I'm the most fortunate person in the world. Dr. Jost is brilliant, sees you as a person, not your diagnoses, and always, ALWAYS is able to diagnose and treat you with the latest cardio-interventions. Please read his bio on their website. I have seen Dr. Jost for 14 years, and I couldn't trust any physician more than I trust him.

My husband was referred to this cardiologist by his primary care doctor. Great staff with a fantastic sense of humor, and patient service oriented attitudes. This positive atmosphere helps when facing frightening unknowns. Dr. Jost is wonderful and gives one a sense of security. He is very up front and you just know this man knows what he is talking about. He is very intelligent and will answer all your questions. My husband & I were very worried going in, but when we left we felt reassur

My first appointment after my heart attack I had many questions, but the doctor only spent about 10-15 minutes with me and literally walked out of the room without a word in the middle of my questions. Then he ordered a coronary artery scan for me, but they turned me away at the testing facility because I am ineligible for the procedure due to the stents I have. I called the office, no one answered, I left multiple messages and they never called me back.

Dr Jost and his staff: I can't thank Dr Jost often enough for finding and correcting all my cardio and circulation problems Putting the two stents in my heart arteries has allowed me to be mobile an able to fully breathe again. Clearing my arteries in my legs and putting the stent in my upper left leg has my blood circulating into my legs and feet. Thank you for saving my life! He is an exceptional doctor. I highly recommend him for doing procedures such as mine to anyone. Raymond F Loonan

He treated my husband when he became Ill. He persuaded him to go to the hospital he was affiliated with, he even drove him. Scottsdale Hospital was 5 minutes away and his hospital was a good thirty minutes or more. In this case it may have been the difference between him living or his death. By the time I got to the hospital I never had time to speak to my husband again.
