Cardiologists of Lubbock

"A complete waste of my time. I came in for persistent chest pains, which should be taken very seriously. Instead, Dr. Sharif came in for literally under 2 minutes and did an examination that was a joke. He "listened" to my heart, but the stethoscope literally wasn't even pressing again my chest/back, and then he "felt" my pulse by just lightly laying his two fingers on my wrist without even moving my sleeve. There was no way he actually heard my heart or felt my pulse. He looked at my EKG for 0.1 seconds, recommended a stress test and echo, and rushed out of the room. I was lost until I found the signs for checkout. DO NOT GO HERE."

"Treatment is one thing. Office operations and billing are something else. The billing is the worst I have ever seen. They are trying to double bill for things that have already been paid and have resorted to having their callers harass me with calls and texts after hours. I will be moving my care to another cardiology clinic/practice as soon as possible. Beware and do your research."

"Saw Dr Shariff to look into a condition I've had for about 15 years. Didn't listen. Didn't do any long term testing. Said it was probably just dehydration. I don't think he took me seriously because I'm young and generally healthy."

"Dr. Solis is great! However the front office staff is very disorganized and not helpful at all. I got a notification a week before my appointment, I showed up to my appointment at the scheduled time I was notified to be there. I was told by one girl that they had “no showed” me and I missed my appointment. That I had an appointment with the doctor thirty minutes before and then testing following that appointment. I explained to her that I only got one notification and only knew of one appointment. She didn’t listen to anything I said, but she said I could still be seen for the testing since I was on time for that appointment. I waited for OVER AN HOUR before I was taken back for the tests. After 45 minutes of waiting, I went to ask a different girl then the first one I talked to how long she thought I would be waiting because I was on time for the “one” appointment. Another girl rudely interrupted and raised her voice and said my chart was in the back and once it’s in the back they have no control over how long things take. When it was time for me to check out I told the girl that had raised her voice that I needed to make an appointment with the doctor, since I wasn’t able to see him. She again raised her voice and said “HE’S NOT HERE!” Very rude front staff. I was not happy at all."

"I have been having heart issues for a week. I visited my PCP in Amarillo and she put in a referral request. A week later I have heard NOTHING from that referral. As a 38 year old mom of 3 I was becoming more nervous with each passing day that something could be seriously wrong. I visited my Endocrinologist (in Lubbock) this morning for my yearly checkup and he told me he'd refer me to a friend. I wasn't even out of the parking lot before I received a call to go straight to see Dr. Sharif. They worked me in immediately. An hour later, I have had an EKG, I have a monitor for 2 weeks, and he has calmed my fears. The staff was pleasant and kind, even though I know my appointment ate into their already brief lunch time. I am so thankful God allowed these two doctors into my life. After horrible interactions with a major Heart Group in Amarillo, I will recommend a 2 hour drive to Dr. Sharif to anyone I know."
