Dr was very transparent, and adhered to my concerns. Very satisfied.
December 16, 2022Bernard W.Verified patient
I'm sure he is knowledgeable and he did a couple tests that gave me some information that was helpful. However, if I had to use one word to describe his demeanor, I would say confrontational. It was a very weird experience in that sense. I have many MDs in my family, though no cardiologists. I'm very respectful and attentive with doctors so there was no reason for that.
I needed to see someone immediately and went to him because he had a bunch of appointments available the next day. I went to another cardiologist for a second opinion a couple days later and it was a completely different experience, for the better. I'm really not one to write reviews and especially negative ones but that was my experience. Maybe I caught him on a bad day. His staff was very kind and helpful. I had no other issues.

Honestly, seems like a nice guy but he is very dismissive of patients. Has an attitude that says I’m a doctor so I know what I’m saying. Granted he is a doctor but in most professions the key to understanding things is to communicate them. Being dismissive and a know it all is not proper. Ego-driven to say the least. Horrible experience overall.

I've been to this office to see Dr. Merab twice and have always had a pleasant experience. I didn't have to wait long and the waiting area is big and very clean. The doctor is calm and pleasant and listened to my concerns. He even came back out as I was leaving to give me more information on my specific heart condition. I plan to keep seeing him as needed.

The office is a mess, even though we booked an annual appointment they keep billing us for a consultation visit and sending us bills. Be careful!

August 4, 2023Lawrence G.Verified patient
My primary cardiologist referred me for a specific test that her office could not provide. Dr. Merab ignored my cardiologist’s assessment of my symptoms and refused to do the test. It was an incredibly frustrating experience and a waste of time and money since I still have to do the test, this time at a different clinic.

The doctor saw me shortly after I had arrived. He was professional and efficient during his consultation and prescribed EKG and a home monitoring device for me right away. His office has a convenient location and feels comfortable and spacious.

Bring all the info regarding your issues along with you .
Dr needs all medicines and amounts exactly to give the best medicine help .
I was late as I got lost , but the doctor stayed and took care of me.
First time visiting this doctor .
May 13, 2023Mary G.Verified patient
I went to this office with a referral from my doctor to get a tilt table test done because my doctor believes I may have POTS, but this cardiologist decided he knows better and wouldn't give me one. He blamed my medical marijuana usage even though I said this has been happening since I was a child, especially when I'm hot and wrote me off because my heart is healthy. He suggested exercise and when I told him I've almost passed out after 10 minutes on the treadmill on the gym going normally he told me to not hyperventilate and that would help. This was a laughably bad visit. If you want to be medically gas lit come here.

Nice guy and great listener. Sympathetic to my situation but firm on what it takes from me to work on med issues. Beautiful office , nice staff btw.
February 22, 2023Rodney R.Verified patient
This doctors office is very spacious and clean which is about the nicest thing this place has to offer. You walk up to the receptionist and 2 of them have their heads down and the only one to talk to looks like zombie and that’s just the first red flag. I waited over an hour to be seen and As my appointment approached the gentlemen who walks in 10 minutes late for his appointment which cuts into my time is seen in no less than 20 minutes. The doctor and his nurse definitely rushed my vitals and just asked me about my family history more than anything. Then as we got to the topic of cannabis because it happens to be what i medicate with he tells me the utmost ridiculous analogy “Cannabis is like putting tomato juice in a Ferrari” dude hasn’t updated his book in 20 years. Not coming back

What I truly love about Dr. Merab is that he honest and truly care about his patients. He took his time and answered all my questions and concerns. He knew that I was scared about encourage me on better options for a healthy heart and lifestyle. When you're young most doctors are quick to assume that you're healthy and it's all in your head, they don't take the time out and explain things to you.
March 5, 2022Shakeya B.Verified patient
I was so pleased with my visit. The office was extremely clean. The staff was over the top nice. The doctor took time to talk to me and engage in conversation. I left here with peace of mind. I look forward to my follow up visit here.
