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.

Great Doctor
Dr Pash was instrumental in saving my life after my Cardiac Arrest several years ago. In the hospital he gave me a pacemaker and defibrillator and has been my cardiologist now for several years. I'm in my 60's and he diagnosed a congenital heart condition that I didn't even know I had and that other cardiologist had overlooked. He doesn't push unnecessary medications. He is a busy doctor, but will take the time to listen to your questions. The ladies that work in the office are also friendly. I feel fortunate to be under his care.

Dr. Pash is a very good Dr. for me his been my doctor for 10 years but sadly due to my insurance I have to find another cardiology but I am coming back after I change everything with my insurance. His office staff is nice Aimee and Daisy specially the OFFICE MANAGER that helps me a lot to deal my insurance problems and billing. His office manager is very smart and kind she knows what she's doing. Dr. Pash is also very kind to me and helps me a lot with my heart issues.

worst office
been going here for a couple years and the office just keeps getting worse. appointments are a month or more out, ive arrived on time for my appt and waited over an hour. the last couple times the wait has been worse and several patients openly complaining about it. the office manager needs to be fired. no patient care at all. im switching to a Dr who cares about service.

Don't Bother
Tried mutiple times to make an appointment. Always went to voicemail. I left multilple messages and never got a call back. It's like dealing with the VA.

Did not feel like he was listening
I have had this feeling on most visits, except when an expensive procedure was being presented. I asked a question, he took a phone text- typed an answer to the phone person, looked up and said "ok, then" and left the room. It is hard to get questions answered, he does not really listen. He takes little time. It feels like we are just there to fill out the daily schedule. He seems put off by my parent that has a handicap.

Horrible doctor. He’s in it just for the money. Do not trust this person and if you do make sure you get a second opinion.

Dr. Pash may be an expert in his field, however, our experience was less than good. Do your research before blindly following his advice. Being old doesn't mean you shouldn't get good care. My dad was very active and the pacemaker did help him continue to be, but, after doing some research, we found the medication he prescribed was to be used only as a last resort and had many bad side affects. Only after we questioned him did he admit it was probably not needed. Not enough space to complete!

Dr. Pashm is a very credited heart doctor. I had a heart attack about 5 years ago and was assigned a heart doctor at Tri-City hospital. I had a heart condition that required placement of a AICD-(device that was both a pacemaker and also a defibulator). This was a serious heart situation and Dr Pashm was the one made available to implant this critical device. I couldn't have been in better hands-Dr Pashm did the surgery on a very weak heart and we had excellent results and progress since.

I went to him for the condition I had. At first he was going to send me for a CT angio and then without any reason he switched the test to a regular angio which is a procedure. He told me that the reason was because my insurance didn't approve the test but my insurance said that the doctor cancelled the request. When I asked him about it, he was dishonest with me and lied to me about this. He was also in a rush every time I went to him.

I had an apparent heart flutter under stress and Dr Pash (as they call him) truly helped me relax with his excellent manner. I had the heart catheder done to confirm no blockages and several follow up EKG's while wearing a mobile heart monitor for a month. I even had an anxiety attack [one day shortly afterwards] and he saw me immediately with no appointment - with an EKG on the spot. I can only say what happened and tell you how on top of it all Dr Pash was - and remains to this day.

Best cardiologist we've seen by far. Dr. Pash is so willing to listen and explains everything so wonderfully. We never leave his office with questions or concerns because he addresses them all and listens to all of my symptoms. Not to mention his front office staff couldn't be nicer people, especially his office manager. We've had experience now with several cardiologists but Dr. Pash's great staff and his knowledge, concern, and helpfulness makes his office the best in town, hands down.
