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.

I do not know of cardiologist who does not look over his patients medicines or order/review blood work. I would think that's very important for a specialist who treats cardiac disease....

Very rough no bed side manners , walked in procedure room talking about his son the whole wow he did the procedure keeping his nurse distracted and they would not tell me what they were doing or what to prepare for as they were doing the procedure unless I would start moaning and making noise when they get back to their conversation ,Didn’t directly talk to me when it was stated that they was not to share no information about me to anyone but me and my family Dr. He never once told me just how much blockage I had said I needed stints recommended for the following week , then turned around and let my driver tell him that I needed a knee surgery before my heart surgery and he agreed. Don’t I need to be alive in order to walk ?

Dr. Sims and staff did an amazing job. Little wait time, polite staff and truly cared about me as a person. Dr. Sims explained everything in my report at a level I could understand and spent extra time with me answering all of my questions. Thank you and your staff for going above what is required.
