Board-certified specialists create tailored plans addressing hypertension, cholesterol management, and metabolic health. Patients benefit from evidence-based strategies to reduce heart disease risk while receiving ongoing monitoring and support.
Diagnostic Imaging
Advanced diagnostic imaging services utilize state-of-the-art technology for comprehensive heart evaluations. Our PET/CT myocardial perfusion stress tests and echocardiograms provide detailed insights into cardiac function and blood flow. Non-invasive vascular testing assesses arterial health while sleep studies identify potential cardiovascular complications from sleep disorders.

Report
My Doctor Krishnan informs me via Privia that my echo cardiogram is normal but we need to talk about some abnormalities. I call Landsdowne and Reston the nurses exact answer, "oh well call after hours get the emergency service because Dr. Krishnan does not follow up with patients. If you want to know go to the ER. Because your health is not that urgent to us." I spent and extra $250 out of pocket for an more up to date halter-monitor. I need to hold the thing on with tape. I don't even know if it's recording the info. If your in the medical feel and have no compassion for patients. You need to find a new career!

Dr. Michael Banihashemi was very attentive and thorough for this first appointment. I feel like I am in good hands. Very nice staff. Clean waiting area and exam room. Quick follow up. I saw him at the Leesburg, VA Cornwall office which is very convenient for me.

Report
I wish I could give less than 1 star. We were referred to Dr. Krishnan by our primary care doctor, to diagnose and treat hbp and CHEST PAIN. saw Dr on first visit, wish lasted 15 minutes total. This included discussing abnormal ekgs with the patient at the reception desk of the waiting room. A week later stress test and ultra sound, never spoke with the dr. We had to call and get our results. They still have never posted results to their app. But, the bill is posted rest assured.
Still on same blood pressure pill, never discussed the original problem. I also agree with previous post about the receptionist. I witnessed her being rude to people on the phone and in person. I would suggest bypassing this office at all costs.

The doctors are fine but the receptionists are atrocious. I'm canceling my appointment and won't be going back. I was trying to reschedule an appointment and was on hold for over ten minutes. No indication as to when they were going to get back to me. I kept hearing the phone click like she was picking up the phone and then putting me back on hold. I called on a different line and she answered.
I told her how long I was waiting and she told me well you are just going to have to wait and disconnected before I could say anything else. I've had previous poor experiences but this clinched it. It is unfortunate because Dr. Bhanu Krishnan is really good.
