Patient Reviews
Mar 17, 2024
Dr. Santora is very knowledgeable about the heart. He did a stress test on me which confirmed what my previous cardiologist at UCI said about my condition. He informs you well about your respective heart condition and a regimen to follow. Recently, Dr. Santora performed my very first coronary angiogram at Providence St. Joseph Hospital in Orange. He and the nursing staff over there made me feel very comfortable despite my emotionally tense state. His office in Orange is very busy so it is hard to schedule.
