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.

Absolutely fantastic. Has a team of colleagues ready to meet every possible need for cardiac disease and is a talented and insightful clinician.

He is an excellent physician, caring, expert at what he does. He performed AF ablation on me 4 years ago, with excellent result. I highly recommend him.

Without a doubt, the best Electro Cardiologist out there. He carefully considers all factors before making recommendations and/or treatment. He is not pushing “cookie cutter” approaches to heartcare. Great technology!

Dr. Mead performed a heart ablation procedure to eliminate my arrhythmia condition initially diagnosed by his excellent Silicon Valley Cardiology colleague Dr. Bruce Benedick who referred me to him. Some survey questions therefore don't apply as I did not speak to Dr. Mead until after the procedure. The procedure went flawlessly and the condition appears to have been cured. I would judge Dr. Mead as exceptionally competent, confident and skilled.
