03/15/2024

Dr Collado has been the first cardiologist whom has shown true concern in getting me the right treatment for my condition, since he consults with my other doctors before making a final decision.

03/13/2024

Staff at reception do not seem happy and are overwhelmed with work. Dr and his assistant are phenominal. just seems like doctors have to manyh patients

03/12/2024

Excellent physician!

03/07/2024

she was great

02/23/2024

He always arrives with his unacknowledged entourage with whom he keeps eye contact. He is cheerful, friendly, yet abrupt. He asked, "How often do you take your blood pressure?" I was thrown off. Why? I have low blood pressure. No explanations. I became tongue tied and stupid. Confused. No coherent words out on my part.. Then, "how often do you go on walks? Walks? Where do 69 years olds, 100 pounds, frail old ladies all by themseves go?? Florida streets? : intimidating to ME. I sat mute, and did not even think to tell him about my exercise bike, of how often I swim in the ocean, or pool at my club. . Next question... My mind is not snappy enough. They left, suddenly. I felt bad. Keeping thin and active, but not athelitc. careful in my diet, but still a failure . I wish I could have told him about my life long and life altering back condition. The audience is intimidating. My son, is an MD, and I get it. He bought me the exercise bike. .

the ARNP and doctor are very interested and compassionate

09/28/2023

I am a physician myself, I understood the Doctor had an emergency and I waited. What was disrespectful was the lack of listening and addressing my concerns. He has an accent and was talking very fast as if I was a lay person. I had to slow him down. When I asked challenging asking he was not interested in addressing them.
