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.

The staff are amazing. Dr Raza is very knowledgeable and listens to what you have to say. He do not rush the appointment. Very patient and understanding. I will refer anyone that I come in contact with to see him for your heart. Very honest doctor and loves what he do. Thank you!!

I had a unique issue that was very rare and I was fortunate to have Dr Raza. What first appeared to be Coronary Artery Disease blockage was stented. When I had another blockage less than a year later Dr. Raza came up with a protocol to slow and stop the one ofthe most agressive cases of plaque build up most doctors have ever seen. . Shortly after dr Raza’s robust response I had three more stents before the rapid build up was stopped months later. Dr. Rosa brought me through what was a very dangerous situation. Everything he did with me was reviewed and commended by some of the top doctors in the country who I requested second opinions from. I highly recommend Dr. Raza.

I first saw Dr. Raza two years ago for preventative heart health monitoring. I’ve been very satisfied and am confident in the care that I’ve received. My appointments with Dr Raza are always prompt and I’ve never felt rushed during an appointment. His medical explanations are concise and easy for me to understand. Importantly, his nursing and office staff are equally competent!

I was brought in to Emergency last year and thankfully Dr Raza was the on-call cardiologist. He is extremely knowledgeable as evident by his quick diagnosis of my condition and an effective treatment regime to ensure I stay on the path of recovery. He is very caring and understanding and treats his patients like family. I am extremely lucky to have one of the best Cardiologist in DFW.

When my husband was taken to the emergency room, Dr. Raza was the on-call Cardiologist. He was God sent as he immediately diagnosed his problem and started effective treatments. He is very knowledgeable, patient and understanding. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great cardiologist.

Over the last year I have had several heart/vascular surgeries and Dr Raza has provided excellent advise and guided me through the whole process. He communicated with my other doctors which kept me totally informed. Additionally, Dr Raza genuinely cared about my overall well being and took time to be sure I was informed and emotionally okay. I highly recommend Dr Raza

Nov. 22, 2019/ General checkout as moving to Phoenix AZ from Dallas TX to be fure my meds are up to date and to advise of new cardiologist I plan to see. Dr. Raza and his partner Dr. Snyder at Heart Place at Medical City are the best - total professionals and highly qualified. Their staff is also very kind and helpful. They saved my life in September 2017 when my friends noticed for 8 weeks that I was very exhausted and eventually called 911 for an ambulance to Medical City, resulting in a 4 hour surgery for arterial stint. Dr. Raza helped me recover with helps of cardiac medications, change in diet (have lost 90 pounds so far with a way to go), reduction stress. They are wonderful doctors. Another incident September 2019 Dr. Raza said I had a massive heart attack and was saved by a friend who helped me (as I had passed out and slept in my front yard until 430AM). Now Dr. Raza said today I an doing well - BP is down to 110/62 with this help (down from the 2019 of 180/120). I

I ?? my Cardiologist! Dr Raza is smart, kind, caring, patient and easy to talk to. It’s such a pleasure to have an office visit with him. I have been a nurse in a hospital setting for 36 years. I was very impressed with his bedside manner. He listens and asks questions. He explains test and procedures in a way you can understand. He’s a nice guy and a great doctor. He makes you feel comfortable and it’s easy to ask him questions. Thanks for taking such good care of me. You make me feel like family and that’s what I like about you. Dr Raza is awesome!

Dr. Raza took excellent care of my father when he was admitted. He took the time to explain what led him to be admitted, and what we could do to prevent future events. He answered our questions daily and his office set up a quick followup after discharge. Highly recommend.

NEVER WOULD I RECOMMEND HIM. HE WAS MY HUSBAND'S DOCTOR FOR ABOUT A YEAR. FOLLOWING HEART SURGERY, MY HUSBAND NEVER FELT BETTER. WHEN I ASKED IF HE COULD HAVE A PACE MAKER, HE TOLD ME HIS HEART RATE WAS TOO FAST AND HE DIDN'T QUALIFY. WHEN MY HUSBAND TOLD HIM SEVERAL TIMES THAT WHEN HE BENT OVER TO TIE HIS SHOES, HE COULDN'T BREATH, DR. RAZA TOLD HIM JOKINGLY TO WEAR SHOES THAT HE COULD SLIP INTO. HE TOLD ME THAT AFTER ALL, MY HUSBAND WAS 80 YEARS OLD, SO HE WAS NOT GOING TO FEEL ALL THAT WELL. HE GAVE US NO HOPE. NOW THAT WE HAVE CHANGED DOCTORS, HE FEELS MUCH BETTER. WHEN I TOLD DR. RAZA THAT I WAS SAD HE HAD FELT BADLY FOR ALMOST A YEAR, DR. RAZA BECAME VERY DEFENSIVE AND TOLD ME THE DOCTOR WE WERE NOW SEEING WAS NOT THE BEST IN HIS FIELD AND THAT SEEMED VERY UNPROFESSIONAL TO ME. ALL IN ALL, THE EXPERIENCE WITH HIM WAS NOT PLEASANT TO SAY THE LEAST. OUR NEW DOCTOR HAS GIVEN US HOPE AND SAID HE CAN SLOW DOWN THE HEART RATE AND PUT IN A PACE MAKER IF NEEDED.
