Great experience. Dr. Winchester-Penny is extremely thorough. She speaks so you can clearly understand what’s going on. She makes very helpful suggestions, for a healthy lifestyle.
March 29, 2024Kim S.Verified patient
I would highly recommend this Cardiologist, Dr. S. Winchesterpenny to my friends and family for any of their cardiac care.
She shows great patience and empathy towards her patients care, and is a great listener as you explain your symptoms to make an effective diagnosis of your case, thus recommend the most effective treatment plan for your care.
My only concern is the lengthy wait time that you have to wait see her, when you arrive for your schedule appointment.
Which could be some where between one to two hours before you are seen,
Something should be done to remedy this, since it creates unnecessary anxiety and frustration for her patients.
