Dr. Sarmast was very experienced in treating my heart problems. He had reviewed my medical questionaire and EKG before seeing me. He explained to me the result of the EKG and the current condition of my heart. A visit for an ECH Transthoracic Complete six months later was set up. He was kind and courteous to me and my wife who accompnied me to help interpret for me because of my hearing impairment. Many thanks to Dr. Sarmast.
