Interventional Cardiologists - Derby, CT

"I credit Dr. Jaffer with saving my life. I came into the hospital with chest pain that had subsided. My EKGs, blood pressure, echocardiogram, and bloodwork were all normal, with the exception of a slightly elevated heart protein. My heart protein was hundreds to thousands lower than typical heart attack patients. Dr. Jaffer decided to skip the stress test and go straight to the cath lab because women present differently. I woke up with stents fixing my 90% and 80% blockages and a suspected minor heart attack. He said if I had waited another 24 hours, it would have been a different conversation. I know if any other doctor had dismissed my symptoms, my lack of pain in the morning, and my normal test results, this would have been a different conversation. He is patient. He is gentle. He is calming. He is a gift. Thank you Dr. Jaffer for my second chance. I am forever grateful for him."
