Patient Reviews
Apr 08, 2017
After going into a fib Dr. Valentino taught me a couple of things about a fib, ( after another cardiologist didn't inform me of these issues), that could take a toll on my heart in the future if it's not treated, just living with your heart quivering). He is very nice and takes his time. The staff is nice too. He came highly recommend to me me by three people I know, and I now recommend him myself. A very comfortable office.
