UT Northshore is my new UT to go to place. I had a handful of questions but they were addressed before I could even bring them up. Everyone treated me as if I was a priority and I was very relaxed about my procedure and the worries that I had being a first time heart patient. I felt like I had been treated there for years! Thank you UT. Go VOLS

He listened to me. He did not seem rushed. He spoke to me in a kind and polite voice. He explained things well. He was respectful. I've seen a PCP and a cardiologist for over a year and neither started me on medication. He did and what a difference the medication has made in me losing the excess fluid trapped in my body. He's going to make sure I am heart healthy.
