My husband and I both see Dr Phares. Both families have heart issues and conditions. We wanted to be proactive in finding a cardiologist and get a baseline heart history established before we had any problems. Dr. Phares is the best. He has evaluated all of our tests etc. And has given us excellent care and medical guidance. He listens and provides us with great information. We are grateful he gives us back to back appointments so we are both able to see him on the same day and be an extra set of ears for each other at appointments. So pleased with our care.
