Staff was friendly. Insurance staff, not so much. The Dr. was in the room not more than 15 minutes. Made me feel like it was great imposition that I was there. I had to look up on the internet what he told me about the results of the EKG. He offered no written explanation. The phone call with the results of the stress test was even more disappointing. A nurse telling me everything looks good, but no explanation as to what might be causing my symptoms, or any suggestions as to any solutions. Just to come back if I feel it necessary. They run people in and out of there like a cattle auction. Will look elsewhere for a cardiologist.
