Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I would not recommend
In my appt, Dr. Ghai’s voice was very soft and seemingly empathetic. Though his tone was of that nature, his mentality and what he was saying was not. He walked in and the first thing he did was try to prescribe me meds WITHOUT examining my heart or running test and WITHOUT getting to know me. He dismissed the entire idea of me working my way off high blood pressure meds and he doubled down on him thinking it’s rare to get off high blood pressure meds. I felt like a number to him. In my opinion he did NOT have good beside manner if he is crushing the spirits of patients that just want to get healthy enough to not rely on meds for the rest of their lives. I would not recommend him for anyone who wants a doctor to fight for their health and not diminish their goals to improve their life. My experience was traumatizing.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Ghiaie was my heart doctor for years when he was n Tallahassee, FL. I can’t speak highly enough about him and his medical expertise and some of the best bedside manners I’ve ever experienced. Sure wish he was back in Florida.

Excellent care
I’ve been a patient of Dr Ghai’s and always felt I was being care for by a very smart and well trained doctor, and he always explained things thoroughly. He was thorough and compassionate and I felt well cared for. Simply the best!

Very personable will listens to your concerns and how you are feeling. It’s a little difficult to treat me because I don’t react well to heart medicines. He finally found a cardiac medicine that I tolerate without side effects. Sorry to see him go Texas gain our loss.

Good doctor but I have never been seen in a timely manner. I always have to wait months for an appointment and when I do have an appointment he is always behind.

Dr. Ghai has followed my case and been my cardiologist since my condition of Cardiomyopathy(weakened or enlarged heart)onset after the trauma of birthing my first child. He truly cares about his patients and his bedside mannerism is absolutely phenomenal. Even when he did my surgery, I knew I was in the best care possible so I wasn't scared at all. This man has saved my life. I am a former medical office assistant, usually critical, but I absolutely sing praise for my care from this doctor!

Dr. Ghai has always treated me with the highest respect in courtesy and listening to me. Even though I operate through social service medical insurance, Dr. Ghai has always treated me with utmost respect. Dr. Ghai is obviously extremely knowledgable in his own medical field and others as well. He genuinely cares about me and asks about my treatment via other doctors, such that he can grasp the whole sphere of my health condition(s). I would gladly recommend him to anyone with cardiac problems.
