Saint Alphonsus Heart Care

"My grandfather received.superb care. I was particularly impressed with the care he received by Zach Grunig the physician assistant. He was professional and knowledgeable. Made us feel like we mattered. The whole staff was super!"

"My husband Joe had an ablation done by Doctor Margot Vloka. She is helpful, personable, caring and has great skills. I felt like she went the extra mile to make sure that as his family, wife, I knew what was going on the whole time, as well as how I can help care for him once he's home. I highly recommend her. Also, I would like to send a personal shout out to the nurses who also did a great job of caring for Joe and briefing me on his status. Thank you to Rylee, Jeffrey and Julian."

"I appreciate Doctor Writer's and his teams concern each time I speak to them. It makes me realize that I really need to take my condition seriously. I realize they have long days especially during covid. I do trust your advisings and appreciate the effort. Despite me constantly pushing. Thanks so much team."

"I’ve been receiving care from Margot Vloka since 2018. The care that I’ve received from her has been adequate. Saint Al’s Heart Care as a whole, though, is grossly careless, incompetent, and bureaucratic. When calling the office, I always expect to be on hold from ten to twenty minutes. When providers return calls, they never leave direct lines if their call is missed. This requires one to traverse the convoluted process again in an attempt to return a call. Thus, more valuable time is forever wasted listening to elevator music. Additionally, the last three times that I’ve required a new prescription, I have explicitly left instructions regarding the exact pharmacy location. Whether this information is ignored by the providers due to carelessness or if it is lost in the bureaucratic transfer of information to them, I am uncertain. All I know is that the providers repeatedly send prescriptions to the wrong pharmacies despite my efforts to have this information corrected both in person and over the phone. I would report these complaints to the office, but I fear that it would be of no use. It would be like expecting a child to act as responsibly as an adult."

"I saw Dr Matthew Nelson and he made me feel very comfortable. He sat down and really got to know me. He looked me in the eye and spoke to me about my life and I about his. He really made me feel comfortable-- after all, I am there because something is wrong with my broken heart, right? I felt very comfortable talking to him and learning about ways that I can help myself live longer. He was thorough-- ordered more tests-- and left me with a sense of hopefulness for the future."
