Patient Reviews
May 30, 2024
I typically research, extensively, my doctors - anything! I was referred by my cardiologist to a doctor at UW because he anticipated my condition would take me there eventually. That doctor took off 18 months later. I was assigned to Dr. Minami, she's great! Her nurse Ariana is top notch as well. It is not convenient to get to the UW but they make it worth the effort. Throw in a fantastic EP and I have a Super Team at UW! Thank you Dr. Minami.
