Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2023
My EKG was abnormal at my PCP said I needed to see my cardiologist stat They faxed the results to DR Fosters office and I even sent a message to Heather she responded back and said that Stephen Miller was in clinicals and when he looks at the the test results she would call me this was yesterday 7/7 said it would be late so fart I have not heard anything. So now I've got a call into my PCP to refer me to another Cardiologist. It saddens me to have to do this because I think highly of DR Foster and Stephen Miller and this is the first time I have had any problems with either one of them .
