Great doctor. Nice guy. Comforting demeanor. IMO he has clear verbal and listening skills. His staff had me forward my history with previous cardiologists and tests not in UCLA system before my first visit with him. He was well prepared. I don’t always see this. He reviewed my past heart history from UCLA and private doctors, MyChart tests, meds with me. Addressed all of my questions and remarks. He had tech do new EKG, explained purpose of suggested non-invasive precautionary testing and how to use low dose meds. I felt comfortable agreeing to all. So happy I am his new patient.

He has been a great doctor. Very respectful, listened to my concerns and looked for answers for what I was going through. Thankfully, at this time I won't need to continue with follow up appointments, but if things change then I would what him again as my doctor.
