Patient Reviews
Sep 02, 2017
I'm 52. I saw two Drs before coming to see Dr Sclar. They got me in immediately. I'd been having some chest pains that other MDs suggested (even after an ekg) was likely Gerd. Dr. Sclar listened to my symptoms and said "it's not Gerd, go to the ER immediately." I asked about doing and echocardiogram and he said "No. I know the difference go to the ER now." He was absolutely right. I had had a heart attack. I went in for surgery the next day. He probably saved my life. I highly recommend him
