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. Branco is great cardiologist! He really cares about people!

I was in very bad shape when the EMS bought me to West Florida. Dr. Branco and his staff gave me another chance at life. If you are in need of cardiology help, Dr. Branco and his staff are winners.

The wait time that I have experienced with Dr. Branco is always 1 hour or more and the time that he spends with his patient is usually not long enough.

I have been using West Florida heart care for 30 years. They saved my life during a heart attack in 1995. Have always been very caring and always on time with my appointment.

F. A. Meloy – Jul 12, 2019

I was referred to Dr. Branco because of arrhythmia and PVC problems. He was rude and abrupt. He asked me why I was there. He had already mentally written me off because I had a normal EKG. He listened to my heart and said he was sorry to disappoint me, but there was nothing wrong with me and that I should get back into my exercise program (which was long distance running.) I am not a hypochondriac! He ignored the spreadsheet I had brought showing months of careful logging of blood pressure and heart rate. He told me my multiple PVC's were no big deal. "Everybody has them." Previously I was cautioned that three or more in a row could cause sudden death, and I was having numerous PVC's of three in a row. A few days later, another physician (not a cardiologist) at another hospital diagnosed me with an ascending aortic aneurysm which was an incidental finding on a CT. Had I looked at his medical malpractice files before this appointment, I would not have wasted my time or money.

I have been under Dr. Branco's care for about three years. He has been treating my Afib in a planned, least-invasive-first, sequence. In August of 2016 he re-set the rhythm of my heart via an electrical impulse. In of December of 2018 he implanted a pacemaker. I am being monitored daily via a state-of-the-art device that directly transmits my heart info to Dr. Branco and his associates.
