    This was my first visit with Dr. Tekriwal and I found him to be a very kind and compassionate provider. I recently moved to the area and needed to find a new cardiologist. He was recommend by my PCP and I was so glad that he was the one she picked. He was very thorough, reassuring and spoke to me like a person, not a patient. He can be daunting meeting a provider for the first time and Dr. Tekriwal and his staff put me at ease immediately. I was very impressed with the overall experience.

    Excellent, caring doctor. Hoping he doesn’t leave the practice. We lost most doctors there. Had to go elsewhere:(

    Treats us like family.. When we needed Dr to do stents or when he heard something he didn`t like while examining us--he got right on the phone, while we were sitting there, and helped setup different specialists.
