Patient Reviews
Jan 14, 2024
Dr. Khwaja was recommended by my cardiologist Dr. Sandhu after asymptomatic discovery of severe multi artery blockage through stress testing and angioplasty. After meeting Dr Khwaja there was no question he was the best from the start, initial consultation and all pre-procedure scanning and labs. On the day of the surgery he addressed my final questions and his entire team was very thorough and passionate. After the surgery he came by and detailed the procedure to my wife. It is day 6 and I am released to go home. We need more Dr.s like Dr Khwaja and Dr Sandhu. God bless them.Tony Bakersfield - January 13, 2024
