CardiaCare Services, P.A. now merged with Orlando Health Heart and Vascular Institute

"Had my first visit to Dr. Karkals office. Everyone from the front desk to the technicians and Dr. Karkal were amazing. Definitely recommend this practice."

"This team is great! I was so relieved to hear that Dr. Karkal's team was able to get me in asap and even more when I found out that some of the tests could be done in office same day contrary to some of the other practices I have reached out to. Of course scheduling can vary but it is so important to have efficient care when time is of the essence with your health and Dr. Karkal knows that. He has very good bedside manner and is very knowledgeable. His team is like magic! They are so welcoming, compassionate, and positive. Going to a specialist can be daunting but Dr. Karkal's team made the experience rather positive! Everyone was very friendly and professional. Highly recommend this practice!"

"My husband was referred to Dr Karkal in 2017 and our experience has been fantastic. The people behind the counters are very professional with compassion. They remember us when we come in for our appointments. With heart issues in my family, I decided to see if he can monitor my heart. Immediately he said certainly. I gave my insurance card to them & after they knew my coverage, Dr Karkal saw me right then. We both feel well taken care."

"Oh GOD STAY AWAY!. He misread an EKG from a nearby dr outsourced to him which is what got me to his office in the first place. Then he proceeded to 'not be clear' about another exam he did at this office, then recommended cutting me open to see my heart. Was not clear about options. Found a safe alternative and took it and when results were negative, he still wanted to cut me open for no good reason. I found out from co-workers that he's done this to them too. Seems like cutting you open for a 1 in 1000 chance of death surgery should be last resort, not first. Look elsewhere."
