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.

Dr. Peykar did an amazing job with my Obligations for Afib and V-tech, I feel better than I have in years.

great hands!
Dr. Peykar's manner when meeting with him seems like he is distracted. In the OR, he has great hands being precise in performing my heart ablation. I have no PVCs now. I can do yardwork and other strenuous activities. Before Dr. Peykar performed the ablation, I couldn't walk 15 feet without resting.

Results after 3 years
Early in 2020, an A-fib was detected in my heart. Dr. Peykar peformed the ablation procedure. Only 1 day in the hospital. A few days later, a heart monitor was placed under the skin. This device sends a daily report to Dr. Peykar and records all incidents of A-fibs happening. Boy, what a success story I am. My last checkup -- I had 1 incidence in the last 6 months. He answers all my questions, he is easy to talk to, his office staff is very good. I highly recommend Dr. Peykar. And my heart is working like a charm -----

EXCELLENT ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY PHYSICIAN
My husband was referred to Dr. Peykar by a close physician friend for new onset atrial fibrillation. We obtained an appointment quickly. Office staff has been very friendly and helpful on every visit. On the first visit, Dr. Peykar placed a small loop recorder on the chest wall while in the office, to properly evaluate the problem. It was triggered that evening and several times afterwards, immediately clinching the diagnosis and severity. My husband ultimately required cryoablation. We were able to schedule the outpatient procedure in Naples within a week of the request. The process and procedure went remarkably smoothly. We are now 4 months out from the cryoablation and my husband has had no recurrence or side effects. We are a Physician and a PA, and are both very pleased and impressed with Dr. Peykar's skill and expediency in the procedures. We highly recommend him and would send our family members to him, should they require his expertise.

Best Electrophysiologist in the State
I met Dr. Peykar over 6 years ago when I was in A-Fib. Had my first Ablation in 2016 and recently had my second ablation. Probably wasn't being careful of what I was eating. From scheduling my apt with Amanda and the PA Shannon the office is excellent. Dr. Peykar's knowledge is far beyond ant other doctor I came across. He is thorough in his explanation and I don't feel rushed when in his office. Everyone in his office are concerned with your health. I've never experienced so much kindness and compassion by a physician and staff. I truly recommend Dr. Peykar and his practice.
