Dr. Attavar was very precise in her explanations and would be an excellent teacher for other physicians. She carefully explained, listened to my responses, and gave me assurance that she knew what was going on and what we needed to do to get 100% healthy. You are fortunate to have her on your staff.

I went into the appointment with a couple questions. However, she (Dr. Attavar) explained and gave me a lot more information. Knowledge that I didn't know. And then asked if I had questions. She had already answered my questions within her more extensive explanation, which I greatly appreciated. I am very impressed!

I waited 90 minutes to see the doctor. I am a working professional and my time is valuable. If a provider is unable to se four patients per hour, then four should not be scheduled. When I asked about rescheduling due to a work commitment, the person at the desk said I could "do whatever I wanted to do." I was not unkind, but had a conflict and could not afford to wait much longer.

I take a lot of medicine, a lot of times most of your physicians don't know why or who ordered it in the first place. They are rushing in and most are only concerned about the next test they could do, but no concerns about how you feel; they may ask, but I have been sick for a while. If they were that great, I would be doing better. I'm not. It seems like my health is getting worse, I don't know if it is from medications in the past, the present and the future is bleak. I have specialists for every organ I have, they don't know what is wrong because they learn with every visit. I wish one time, I could be told what they did for me on the last visit, what they can or can't not do during office visit. Watching them grab for straws, not really knowing who I am and what I go through. I need something to take the edge off the pain I feel. Out of all the doctors I see, some seem afraid to offer assistance or they tell me to live with it. Please stop exaggerating your heart specialists are the best in the nation; they are not. Please don't let them kill me for responding honestly.

My experience could have been better My doctor was in a bad mood she really could have done better especially with me and the nurses that were there I was happy the way she talked with me and the staff.I tried to talk to her about my medicine and she thought that I wasn't taking my medicine but she kept telling me that I should have taken my medication. After that I didn't say anything else because I see that I wasn't getting anywhere. I hope that my appointment will go better next time. If you're upset with someone or somebody or whatever the case may be please keep it from work. It's not good when you bring your problems with you especially at work. Show some respect.

I'm so happy to have a female cardiologist, again. I know they are far and few between. I really appreciated the time she took with me. My only suggestion, maybe not schedule as many patients for her since she does take the time to get to know you.

The only concern is after reading the notes she sent to my PCP, she said she had checked some things that she did not. I realize she's probably asked to do these things for Medicare/insurance but I don't like it looking like I had a thorough exam when she only listened to my heart and lungs.

Only a few days after the appointment when I was filing the paperwork away did I discover Dr. Attavar had discontinued 4 medications I have been taking. None of them was a prescription she had given me. One was aspirin 81 mg and I thought that may be because it thins the blood. The second was OTC Coenzyme Q-10. I've been taking it for several years on the advice of another doctor who was aware my family background was all heart disease. The third was Mupirocin ointment which was prescribed by my primary for cellulitis which I am currently experiencing. The fourth was OTC Vitamin D which I am currently on a megadose for hyperparathyroidism and hypercalcemia.This was prescribed by my rheumatologist whom I am currently seeing. I am agitated that Dr. Attavar would discontinue any of my medications without discussion with me at the appointment. I was quite surprised to learn completely by accident that this was the case. At present I am still using Mupirocin and taking the vitamin D until I'm told otherwise by those physicians. Also don't understand what's the big deal about CoQ10. I'm currently considering what message I'm about to send to Dr. Attavar. I know her office was having a particularly hectic day, although I don't know why. I still feel that this was an overlook I'm not happy with.
