Dr. Calkins has been my heart (atrial fibrillation) physician for over a decade. He is top notch by any and every measurement--state-of-the-art subject knowledge, personal demeanor--friendly, kind, amazingly accessible, sincere, makes you feel at ease--attentive to any followup that might be needed or recommended. In short, Dr.Calkins is the epitome of what anyone could want or hope for as their physician.
