I have to say that this is one of the best practices I have gone to! The receptionist up front was very kind and welcoming. The nurse that triaged me was extremely outgoing. I saw Dr. Alex who is new to the practice. He is very friendly and extremely intelligent.
Great place very caring and listen to the patient. Been seen several times wait time was minimum. Friendly staff very helpful.
The staff is always very friendly and compassionate. When I need to make an appointment, they get me in quickly. When I explain what's going on with my health, I feel believed. A couple of days after the appointment they call to follow up and make sure things are going ok.
I have been happy with my experiences there. They worked with me on prescriptions that were too costly and gladly prescribed alternative medications that were less expensive.
Friendly staff, excellent service, no billing issues. Great medical care!
My dad goes here, he has not had a problem with them, they have him on the right meds now, and not being sent to see this one and that one like he had to with his old doctors.
The Tilt Table Test is used to determine a cause of syncope (fainting or loss of consciousness). There can be different reasons people experience syncope. For some people it is related to an abnormal nervous system reflex causing the heart to slow and the blood vessels to dilate (open up) lowering the blood pressure. When this happens there is a reduced amount of blood to the brain causing one to faint. This type of syncope is called vasovagal, neurocardiogenic or abnormal vasoregulatory syncope and is considered benign (not dangerous or life-threatening), except for the injuries that can happen when one faints unexpectedly. The Tilt Table Test is performed to reproduce (bring on) symptoms of syncope while the person is being closely monitored.
Typically this refers to a pharmacologic cardiac stress test whereby certain medications are administered in order to stimulate the heart to mimic the physiologic effects of exercise. Stress Echocardiography.
The "starvation" may produce symptoms (like chest discomfort or inappropriate shortness of breath), and EKG abnormalities. When a "perfusion tracer" (a nuclear isotope that travels to heart muscle with blood flow) is injected intravenously, it is extracted by the heart muscle in proportion to the flow of blood.
Echocardiography. Echocardiography is a diagnostic test that uses ultrasound waves to make images of the heart chambers, valves and surrounding structures. It can measure cardiac output and is a sensitive test for inflammation around the heart (pericarditis).
The monitor is worn continuously throughout the day and night and because it is worn for an extended time period, it can help physicians determine if there is a problem with the heart that would not normally be detected with a regular EKG which only checks the patient's heart rhythym for less than a minute.
The latter can be recognized by examining the movement of the walls of the left ventricle (the major pumping chamber of the heart) by Echocardiography.
Electrocardiography (ECG or EKG) An electrocardiogram or ECG (also called an EKG) is a common, painless test recording the electrical activity of the heart and converts it into lines called "waveforms" that can be seen on a monitor or printed out on paper.
