Dr Botteron is outstanding. He super knowledgeable and highly skilled. He performed my recent PVI ablation and I feel like a new man. Everything about the experience is as good as it could have been. Staff was awesome. Recovery was easy. And they continue to monitor me and check on my well being. Dr Botteron is the go-to guy in St. Louis for all things Cardiac Electrophysiology. A thousand thanks Greg.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2018-10-29

I can't say enough good things about Greg Botteron.  I saw Greg for atrial fibrillation and he corrected my condition via ablation.  He was honest, forthright, and listened to my concerns, but he did not sugarcoat the reasons for my condition.  He was conservative in his approach to my treatment which I greatly appreciated.  He is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, and confident in his abilities which to some may make him seem arrogant, but, personally, I wouldn't want someone to work on my heart who wasn't! His follow-up on my surgery was informative, but he stressed that I would need to make changes in my lifestyle otherwise the condition could potentially reoccur.
