He was a great communicator once he opened up his eyes. I saw him around 3p and he must have been tired.

Dr. O' Hara and his staff were execeptional!!! I highly recommend this medical practice. It has been many years since I had Doctor that actually spent the time to learn about me.

Dr O' Hara is very pleasant, professional, compassionate. Very formal and ask a lot of questions so that he could diagnosis your health concern. Gave specifics prognosis of your medication to the degree what it does for treatment and why you need to stay on it or not and recommends what other doctor that you may need to see if that medication fall into their line of treatment. Very knowledge of the medical field and made you feel comfortable just been his patient.

Excellent doctor!
Verified patient
I really liked Dr. O'Hara, but I ended my relationship with him due to the extreme disorganization of his office staff which made what should be simple things, like booking an appointment, difficult.
Verified patient
Took his time going over my medical history and answering all of my questions. I didn't feel rushed and his bedside manner was great.
I love this Doctor like my father!
Verified patient
He's great--listens carefully, explains what he thinks, very sweet and professional. I had a long wait, probably because I booked an appointment for the end of the day, but I'm not too bothered by that.
I had an excellent visit.
Verified patient
Dr. O'Hara was very attentive and thorough. Felt like he took great interest in what my concerns were and was able to provide answers to all of my questions.
Excellent Doctor
Verified patient
I was very pleased with my visit - Dr. O'Hara was kind, compassionate and patient with me, and was very helpful with my issues.
dr o'hara had a pleasant demeanor and was very thorough in asking questions. he ran appropriate testing based on my symptoms and the office staff was friendly. i had to wait awhile to be seen but that is standard in a busy medical office. i have a follow up and will learn more about my condition but so far it went very well and they were really accommodating getting me back in for an echocardiogram (on an off day) and also for a follow up.
I am seriously overweight and consulted Dr. O'Hara to discuss potential weight loss approaches. While he mentioned weight loss surgery, he was very responsive to the fact that I was not ready to consider it at this point and spent quite a while with me discussing how to make sound food choices and what to aim for in terms of an exercise program. I found him to be a very good listener and very clear in his recommendations to me. I was also very impressed by his office staff. In summary, nothing but positive things to say, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
very helpful.
Verified patient
A great cardiologist, with great staff. he has a broad mindset which I've rarely seen in a specialist. Discussed my health problem even beyond cardiology and thought about possible other causes for my condition.
Very thorough!
Really good professional
The office was disorganized. My appointment time was changed twice to earlier and earlier times and then I wasn't seen for 45 min, which was the time of my original appointment.
Dr. O'Hara was very thorough, extremely professional, and engaged in finding a resolution to my complaint. I felt fortunate to have been seen by him.
The most attention I've EVER received from a doctor: around a half hour! Extremely detailed, and I was only going in for general check up. Also Patrice, the nurse, who settled me in the exam room, made the experience even more fun and comfortable! Highly, HIGHLY recommend to everyone in NOVA!
Verified patient
Very professional with a genuine interest in my health concerns--worked with me, listened, took notes, asked questions, wasn't in a rush. I left with the confidence that all of my questions were answered and I was set on the right path. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. O'Hara to a friend or family member.
Verified patient
I had to reschedule my original appt. I was not charged a fee to change my appt to a later day. The sign in area at his office is very congested, but the Dr service was excellent.
Good doctor, very thorough, really used his time well to get an accurate history. Wish that I didn't have to wait 45 minutes past my appointment to see him. Otherwise, very capable and recommended.
Dr. O'Hara and his entire staff are very professional and very helpful. I would highly recommend this group -- they make my visit here very pleasant and find them very efficient.
Great appointment! Will definitey return
Verified patient
