Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2023
What began as a medical event turned into a life changing experience. I met Dr. Purga when visiting the Urgent Cardiac Care facility at Capital Cardiology. He patiently explained my condition, and recommended a new course of medication. After several months of follow-up, my condition has greatly improved and is now under control. I highly recommend Dr. Purga for several reasons. He is patient, listens, makes excellent recommendations and has a pleasant disposition. He saved my life and I will forever be grateful to him. Another plus - his staff is outstanding.
