If you don't have heart problems, you will have one after dealing with their billing department. I seriously doubt anyone there have a real accounting degree of any kind. Dr Travis Taylor is awesome though

I don't know about their care. I called for 2 months after a referral from the emergency department. I got two returned calls from the same lady but could never make contact when calling back. I filled out their online appointment request form at least a dozen times. I uploaded my insurance information and past medical history. All that was left was for me to verify my own insurance information. Geez I went to cardiology practice who answered their phones. Hire more front office staff. Clearly the automated appointment requester and front staff are not enough.

This review is based on their phone prompting system only. It is extremely lengthy and very difficult to get a live person on the phone. There are 11.yes 11 prompts before you get through their menu. If you don't have high blood pressure when you call, you might before you can get to anyone! Often, even when you get through the prompts, you will receive another message that indicates the request was not recognized and to call again. It's a simple fix.pay someone to answer the phone.
