I like the idea about being able to get an early appointment so that I don't have to take a day off from work. It is awesome! Thank you!

Dr. Phares does a great job in making sure I've understood him. I always feel that he's listening, and he spends as much time with me as I would expect. I've never felt rushed.

Dr. Phares is my cardiologist as well as my husbands. Any and all experiences that we have had with him have been absolutely wonderful. He always makes sure that I understand anything currently happening or might happen in the future and reassures me he is there for me whenever I need him. We are very pleased that Dr. Phares is our family cardiologist.
