Dr. Herman at the Santa Barbara Care Center (Connected to the Hospital) is great.

I would highly recommend Dr Robert Herman. He is a good listener and will address your concerns.

He found something that was not right in a test that he did, scheduled a procedure (angioplasty) found 2 arteries 75% clogged and the “widowmaker artery” was 90% clogged with calcium deposits, Dr, Tom Tempira did the procedure and drilled the calcium artery and it’s now clean, 3 stents and I am in great shape. Recommend this practice highly. Everyone in the practice is pleasant and real nice, and normally on time.

I vote for Dr Alvarez. She has kept me alive, and kept my heart ticking since 2012. I wouldn't go anywhere else. She wrote the book comparing women's heart problems and mens heart problems called "Heels & Ties."

Another vote for Dr Georg Couturier.

Also after my last heart attack I was told I would need a pacemaker hi everybody and when I went into the hospital found out I'm for my heart was not damaged nearly as much as they said it was and Medicare would not pay for the pacemaker so just discharged me after putting me under and putting me through this stress

Cardiologists are not surgeons

Ditto! Stay away from Citrus Cardiology. Left a message with the scheduler. Three days later no callback from them. Called again. This time they said said they were too busy! Too busy for a callback and or too busy to see him? Quickly called our regular Primary doctor who referred him to my cardiologist. Village Heart And Vein. Another vote for Dr. Couturier.

Old Bob 09-30-2021 07:58 AM

Yes, I agree with Dr Georg Couturier of Village Heart and Vein.

I have been with Dr Kersh for a couple of years. He is very thorough and his assistant Angelica is very responsive if you have a question between appointments. I highly recommend!

LOL, you couldn’t of said any better! Same thing when you call some businesses. I’ve already had to hang up on them because I could not understand a single word they were saying. As a matter of fact the last several time I made calls in the last 2 or 3 months every call was a foreigner, some I could understand & some I had no idea what they were saying. These businesses must of got them for a dollar an hr. Sorry I can’t help but I’m guessing 95% of heart Drs. in TV are foreigners. I went to Dr. Garcia, he’s Spanish but you can understand him because he talks slow & pronounces his words very clearly & never in a rush to get to his nexted appointment. Good Luck!
