Cardiology Specialist Medical Group 31515 Rancho Pueblo Road, Temecula, CA 92590

"**UPDATE** In the end the new doctor ended up being good and I'm happy with the office overall. **UPDATE 2/8/23* After seeing my review the office called me and was very nice and is working to see if I can see a different doctor in the office. Everyone I dealt with there BESIDES the specific doctor I saw was great, it was just the doctor had no interest in my condition. I will update the review accordingly after my next visit. They completely blew me off. I had CHF in 2005 at the age of 29. I recently had some symptoms again and during my appointment the doc couldn't have been less interested. He said "If your heart was going bad again you would know it". My primary doc referred me to get an echocardiogram, which I used to get annually. The cardiologist said "We can do one, but we won't contact you unless something is wrong." I saw during my echo that my EF was below 50%, which is 15% lower than my previous echo. I had to follow up and call the office and they wouldn't book a follow up appointment and told me that doctor said "50% EF, normal echo. They didn't care what I had to say and the doctor didn't listen to me and seemed annoyed that he even had to see me. If you can find another doctor you should instead of going to these guys."

"Saw Dr. Cox after having my first scary event with my heart going in to A-FIB. I actually saw him in the hospital first and he listened and prescribed the right meds for me. Then said I need to follow up with a cardiologist when I leave and I told him I did not have one yet because we just changed insurance from Kaiser to PPO Blue Shield /Blue Cross, so he gave me his card and I followed up with him which gave me peace and he was once again kind and attentive. The nurse and receptionist were also very sweet. I’m feeling great now! I go back in 6 months."

"“ Dr. Parekh is the best! He saved my father's life. Not only he is knowledgable he is also compassionate. We are lucky to have him as my father's cardiologist. Would recommend him to anyone. ”"

"I saw “doctor” Nader attia for follow up few years after seeing other Indian doctor who was very rude to me for some reason. Yet, he did order echo and stress test. Anyway my pcp wants me to see cardiologist since last year bc of my blood work and tachycardia and shortness of breath and I saw Attia few months ago, he did ekg, and said “since nothing has happened to you so far we don’t need to continue further testing if something wouldv happened to you it wouldv have by now, don’t need to come back”. That’s shady and messed up. I could tell he didn’t like me bc of some reason (maybe bc of my middle eastern ethnic background?) or was in bad mood. 100% could tell bad intent. Well I will definitely let Sacramento board know bc he can hurt more patients. This “Cardiology Specialist Medical Group” should close down for well-being of patients."

"My dad had an appointment with Dr Parkeh after having a procedure at the hospital. The doctor and his staff were friendly and efficient, Carmen and Arielle were extra helpful and tentative! Overall wonderful experience."
