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.

My mother entered ER in Lehighton PA for trouble breathing at: St Luke's two days ago. This so called cardiologist failed patient emergency protocol and has not visited Mom as of yet. She's now waiting to be transferred to Bethlehem Hospital for evaluation. The administration staff at this office handled the situation very poorly when my sister and I tried to speak with this doctor. No return calls from staff as promised.Don't bother with this physician, seek help elsewhere.

Never looked at my husband's past medical history when making an evaluation. Plus my brother has him even though I told him to change and now sits in a hospital after he told him he was feeling like he had a blockage due to how he felt with a prior blockage. Low and behold he has 3 major artery blockages. One 99, one 97 and one 75. Save yourself and go to someone who will listen to you and do testing before making an evaluation.

6/17/21 GPS took me to the wrong location. The office is right next to Big Lots. I called the office for help and the lady who answered was helpful to me so I could find my way. I had a fantastic experience with Dr Markson and the staff. The front desk was courteous, and the assistant was pleasant too. I enjoyed my visit and I feel fortunate to be under Dr Markson’s care. He spent a lot of time with me, was a good listener, compassionate, and was not rushing me out the door. I appreciated his candor too. We have a plan in motion for my issues. I have been extremely lucky with all of the St Luke’s doctors. I never thought the hospitals/medical care could measure up to Penn. I’ve been very pleased with the care and the medical staff I’ve encountered.

Cardiology Associates office does not even pretend to be professional. Pacemaker change outs are production lined. Your device rep, NOT a doctor is your best source of info. While doctor/hospital get the job done,he must certainly recognize just how terrible the office is. The admin staff is the worse I have ever seen, truly an heartless cardiology practice. Beware!
