Very pleasant and thorough in the exam. He carefully reviewed my past tests which is an advantage of physicians affiliated with a group. Overall experience was very positive, including the elbow bump!

I'm a loyal patient of Dr. Vasavada who, since my valve surgery five years ago has been "there for me." He practices out of a large floor in the building that housed Hillary's campaign team 4 years back (but it's still a nice building).

I've had a history of really bad "whitecoat" hypertension where my blood pressure is always sky high at doctors offices but usually in the normal range at home. After many years of dealing with this, I decided to get my heart checked out just to make sure that I wasn't causing any damage with these spikes and to figure out how to finally get control over them. Not an easy convo to have because most doctors laugh it off and say "just relax". Doctor Vasavada and his nurse Karen listened to my story and they were super patient and understanding. I immediately felt calmer than I had in years because I wasn't being judged. Dr. Vasavada gave me a thorough blood test, echo and recommended that I see an opthamologist to check the pressure/vessels in my head to make sure there was no damage. He was caring and he explained everything from how blood pressure effects the organs, what is or is not dangerous and how to keep an eye on it in the future. In 25+ years of dealing with this stuff, I finally found a comforting/happy doctor who wanted to help me fix it. I cannot recommend him and his staff enough.

Dr. Vasavada is excellent. He is patient, understanding and encouraging. He truly listens to you and explains everything to your satisfaction. I highly recommend him for his knowledge, "bed side manner" and attention to details.
June 14, 2017Luz B.Verified patient
This guy is an awesome, fantastic doctor at an efficient, caring practice in Brooklyn Heights. (The view alone is worth the price of admission!) Wonderful, experienced MD who will not disappoint if you need cardiac care or monitoring. Top of his game!
April 7, 2016Charles P.Verified patient
He did an outstanding job of explaining the test, results and variables that could impact both. He used easy to understand language and took plenty of time with me.

Had an excellent first visit with Dr. Vasavad. Took the time to explain issues concerning my HBP that other doctors haven't. Very easy to talk to Dr. V.
Staff was just as excellent. Did wait long to see Dr. V

Dr. Vasavada is a very knowledgeable, thorough and caring cardiologist. I experience some concerns recently and he submitted me to several exams to rule out heart issues. I am relieved and follow up with his recommendations. It's a pleasure meeting with him and his staff, who are also professional and efficient. Being on zocdoc is also super helpful to my needs.
