“My husband and I both see her at the same time together. It is wonderful. We both hear exactly what she says we have a chance to ask questions regarding the spouse or ourselves. It is fabulous. She is the best cardiologist either one of us has seen.”

“The people who ran the treadmill stress test lied about the results. They said I had asked to stop the treadmill. I never asked them to stop the machine; instead, I asked, "Aren't we going to do more?" When I tried to explain this when Dr. Kassira called me later, she would not listen to me but agreed with the erroneous statement.I will not be returning to this facility at UT.”
