Dr. Rand is very nice, respectful, and explains things in a way that you understand. He is very patient, works with you and takes his time with you. Although this was my 1st visit with him, I hope all my visits will be the same as my 1st one. I will recommend him to everyone I know that is looking for a great heart doctor.

Dr. Rand was friendly and made me feel comfortable. He greeted me and used my name. He seemed genuinely interested in my health. He took time with me and professionally explained the EKG in relation to my medication, which had not previously been explained. I will definitely tell others about this very positive experience.

Dr. Rand and his team were exceptional. Dr. Rand and his nurse explained everything very clearly and were very down to earth. The team did everything possible to make me comfortable and to explain things along the way. I was quite worried when I started the day and I was very relieved at the end of the day.

everyone was so awesome and made me feel very comfortable and explained everything in detail before it took place. Dr. explained everything in detail afterwards also showing me with visual things. Came out of the clinic knowing everything was done in detail leaving no questions.
