The dr was very brief. Not a great listener.

I went to this cardiologist because I’ve been experiencing fainting episodes for years, and I’m genuinely concerned about my heart health. Unfortunately, my experience left me feeling dismissed. I had to fill out a lot of paperwork again in the office, even after completing it on Zocdoc. The doctor quickly attributed my symptoms to dehydration, recommending I drink Smartwater, despite the fact that I also have a heart murmur. Although he said he would send me for additional tests, it felt like he was brushing off my concerns and mainly directed his responses to my boyfriend rather than me. When the nurse took an EKG, the doctor didn’t address the results at all, instead seeming rushed to finish. I left feeling unheard and still worried about my symptoms. I wouldn’t recommend this practice for anyone looking for attentive or patient-focused care.

The office itself is unclean and outdated. Different information was given to us from the office manager to the nurse to the doctor. The doctor, who requires masks in his office, was wearing his on his chin. Appeared disheveled and uninterested and did not listen or communicate anything clearly and we felt completely rushed that we had to call afterwards to find out a clearer picture (there was no one in the waiting room when we were there). This was for routine screening so I would be really apprehensive coming here for severe issues. Really disappointed.

June 24, 2022Michelle C.Verified patient
I had a very positive experience with Dr.Hersh .
May 31, 2022Maureen S.Verified patient
This was my first visit with Dr Hersh
Prior to my visit I was kept informed of my appointment and what was required for that visit. On the day of my appointment I was greeted by a friendly and efficient front desk.. I was promptly brought into an examination room and had my vitals taken by an extremely friendly nurse who made me feel very comfortable …
My consultation with Dr Hersh was very thorough as he reviewed my previous records and suggested a few tests for my conditions as I had not seen my previous cardiologist for nearly 2 years. He was friendly and inquisitive and I felt we had discussed my situation in detail.. I look forward to a future Doctor / Patient relationship with this practice ..
January 14, 2022Salvatore N.Verified patient

I was seen right away. I was not feeling well and they made sure I was comfortable and had my concerns addressed as soon as I arrived. Brandy and the whole staff are very pleasant and attentive. Dr Hersh is to the point but thorough. I would recommend this practice.
July 15, 2020Gary L.Verified patient
Very positive experience. I still have a few visits to go but after experiencing some irregular cardiovascular behavior, I made an appointment with Dr. Hersh. Most of my time was with his assistant or speaking to the folks at the front desk. All incredibly nice and they put me at ease. I think one of his assistants could tell I was a little nervous and self-conscious and she was really great about it.
I’m glad I visited them and I recommend them for sure.
