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 was treated by Dr. Kessler for several years and found him to be a good cardiologist. I started seeing Dr. Kessler after I had several stents put in and then had a heart attack with a double bypass to correct the situation. He is a caring doctor that makes you feel at ease in his office and answers any questions that you may have. Dr. Kessler made sure that my condition was not worsening and he made sure to have me take stress tests periodically to confirm and backup the EKG's, my input and his findings when I was examined. He prescribed drugs for me to help my recovery and to build a foundation for a long and healthy life. My thanks to Dr. Kessler for his concern and expertise while I was in his care.

Have high blood pressure, complaints of fatigue and chest pain. Would not order stress test or echo saying he didn't think these tests were necessary. After 3 more visits with no headway, I became frustrated and decided to find a new cardiologist. My new cardiologist listened to my complaints and ordered a stress test right away. Turns out I had a coronary artery blockage and now I can have it treated properly. This is what a cardiologist does. Glad I didn't die under Dr. Kesslers negligent care

I would give Dr. Kessler no stars. Had chest pain and my primary Dr. sent me to see Dr. Kessler. While he and his office were trying to schedule tests for me I had a heart attack. Seems to me they really did not care about my condition, just going about their day and doing a poor job of it. When I was in the hospital one of his staff called my home to schedule a stress test and when my wife informed them I had had a heart attack they said oh do you still want to do the test! NO STARS FOR THEM
