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.

Appreciation
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for Dr. Crespo and my cardiologist, Dr. Mansoor Reza. Dr. Reza referred me to Dr. Crespo, who approached my case with incredible care and professionalism. Despite the complexities and mysteries surrounding my medical history, Dr. Crespo treated my situation as if it were personal to him, ensuring I felt supported and confident in the care I was receiving.My heart condition has been both a fearful and stressful journey for me and my family, but with the care of these exceptional doctors, I am determined to overcome the challenges it presents. Their dedication and expertise have given me hope and strength to move forward.Thank you again to both doctors for their unwavering commitment.

The absolute best
The whole Arrhythmia Service is excellent but Dr. Crespo and his APRN Mary are outstanding! He’s skilled, kind, thoughtful about his treatment and worries about his patients until he has studied their problem and worked out the best plan. He’s a wonderful communicator and really listens. As a physician myself, it’s hard for me to feel safe in today’s medical care system but I feel safe and well cared for by Dr. Crespo and his team.

First Visit…Extraordinary
Appointment was a reference standard for physicians—clear, concise, very, very well researched and hence prepared….Dr Crespo’s review of extensive, 20-year heart-issue history replete with previous procedures led to innovative options shared comfortably with patient…. A patient benefitting from a team paired with cardiologist Dr. Ferraro-Borgata and Dr. Crespo would be blessed from truly extraordinary counsel and treatment….

Dr Crespo is a professional who’s care and concern is evident. He has a great reputation among the office and nursing staff at his office and at Hartford Hospital. He is kind, funny and I appreciated that after my surgery he called my son and reassured him. I am both satisfied and fortunate to meet and be attended by a doctor like him. He is a man of integrity. I give permission to post these comments on social media etc..

I had AFIB off and on for 15 years. My cardiologist send me to see Dr Crespo after my medication stopped working altogether and I was in persistent AFIB. Dr. Crespo outlined my options and gave me a clear view. I elected to go with the Catheter Ablation. I am recovering and starting to feel better. My only complaint would be with the business end, where it took me 3 phone calls to finally receive the paperwork I needed to fill out before my initial consultation. I do believe the short coming there is more due to Hartford Hospital than with Dr Crespo.

Good man. He reviewed my long history, and made reasoned decisions, planned a course of action with a cautious approach. He is professional, and has a sense of humor. He rates well in my book. He also worked with someone whom I saw years ago, whom I would recommend.

Great doctor, but... terrible practice managment, can't ever schedule a 6mo follow-up, they say they can't schedule that far out. Don't wait to call for a Rx refill, been calling multiple times for a week now, and they cant seem to get it done. First they told me to call my family Dr because Dr. Crespo did not prescribe it - of course he did. But maybe thier confusion is because they had my chart inter-mixed with someone else's with the same name (yep) !
