Both [NAME] and [NAME] were so kind and so sweet. The doctor has an amazing bedside manner. He's enjoyable to be around, but also he really listened to me and I feel confident in his help with my health. His assistant was also amazing! I just don't recall her name right this minute. Overall, a great great experience.

I would like the cardiologist to give me some feedback as to what I could do next. Once he said that I didn't have any blockage, he was done with me and did nothing to spur me on my way towards any other information. So I didn't feel I was treated with the best kind of care I could have gotten. Thank you.

I think the visit was to rule out possible dangerous rather than identified dangers. The doctor saw nothing to identify as a danger. Therefore it was a short visit.
