Patient Comments
This was easily the best doctor's appointment I have ever had. Dr. Edmundowicz was very enthusiastic about my being there (in my case for preventative treatments) and very thorough in his explanations of what my case entailed and what his proposed route for treatment was and why. He inquired as to whether I had any questions and was patient in this regard. He was also very kind and sensitive to acknowledging some difficult family medical history. [...] Really an fantastic standard of care!
Dr Edmundowicz is one of the most caring physicians. He treated my dad, and now my husband and I
Good
Excellent experience.
Dr E is the best. I am lucky to have such a caring and helpful cardiologist.
