I had an exceptional experience with Dr. Tariqshah in cardiology, and it's important to note that his excellence is matched by the professionalism of his clinic's staff. They displayed an impressive level of patience, attentiveness, and expertise, addressing all of my questions with clarity and care. The process of undergoing ECG and other cardiac diagnostic procedures was handled with utmost professionalism, ensuring not only comfort but also confidence in the accuracy and reliability of the tests. The combined expertise of Dr. Tariqshah and his team creates a truly supportive and efficient environment for cardiac care, making it evident that patient well-being is their top priority.
Verified patient
I was under the care of a doctor in another state, and I wanted to establish a relationship with a cardiologist in NJ as I am here for long periods of time. I especially wanted to find out if the recent problems I’m having (coughing, fatigue, other things) were due to the medication the other doctor had me on or if it was something else. I was glad to get an appointment here quickly and was assigned to Dr. Syed. Dr. Syed was warm, friendly and easy to talk with. I was indeed having a reaction to the medicine I’d been on for several months. Thankfully the EKG the medical assistant administered was fine. He gave great advice regarding lowering my blood pressure via diet and exercise while also monitoring it. But if need be, I was instructed to come back and discuss alternate medications. I liked that he had a more holistic approach to medications and blood pressure management and I trust that going forward he will help me make the right decisions.
