As these visits concern my heart they are important and Dr Fernicola treats them that way and answers any question or concerns I may have.

Omg!! This is one of the best doctors I've seen ! He informed me of why I didn't really need to see him or go to the emergency room if I had another episode of heart palpitations. He didn't just say you are good to go. He basically put my mind at ease!!

All went well

Dr. Fernicola was amazing in all aspects of obtaining a second opinion. He knew my medical history, verified my past and current medications/surgeries, confirmed what I'm being told from UPMC and reached out to a colleague for a path forward. I'm so impressed that I have decided to use Johns Hopkins for my future CRT device/cardiac care.
