My husband and I are both patients of Dr. Shmukler. He has always provided us with excellent cardiac care and advise. The nursing staff and all of the support staff at NCH are total professionals or polite, courteous, and very efficient in their work. We are very satisfied with NCH as a whole as we have been patients of other doctors in the system.
