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.

Dr. Caplin - Electrophysiologist
Dr. Caplin is a very professional, yet very personable electrophysiologist. Dr. Caplin installed a defibrillator for me back in 2012, and has been taking care of me ever since. I literally trust him with my life. I would highly recommend Dr. Caplin if you find you need an electrophysiologist.

The Best
Dr. Caplan is the best. He is not only a great doctor, he is a warm, compassionate man. He has been caring of me for sixteen years and I don't have any complaints. He is almost always on time. I have much admiration for Dr. Caplan and his expertise and kindness. If you want a doctor who genuinely cares for his patients then he is the man.

I'm well pleased with the care provided by the Hamilton team. I've been a patient for over 25 years. I moved and now travel 160 miles to be treated. Well worth the effort. Jim Roughan

I visit Hamilton Cardiology for many years. Always I see smiling and polite front desk nurses, after them nurses who taking you to the room, doing your ECG, vital signs, politely asking you a lot of questions about your health, medications and your life as well. They able to answer all your questions and always polite and caring people. About dr. Caplan: always friendly, always explain your ECG, your vital signs, what do you have to do before your next visit, explain your medications and asked if you need (refills) anything from your pharmacy from your regular medications. Dr. Caplan is a good personality and very knowledgeable physician. I feel that I have one of the best cardiologist from this country.

I was referred to Dr Caplan by my Cardiologist; he has been a great caregiver. After my loop recorder was put it place all follow-up visits were very thorough and complete. I would recommend Dr Caplan to anyone who needs his expertise.
