This is a continuation of my previous commentary. As I was saying dr. Silva the second day of inserting stats into my heart placed for more down the front muscle of my heart called the left anterior descending artery. This was a total of 6 stents placed in my heart over a. Of 2 days. I was discharged on Christmas Eve. Just in time to go home with my life. I owe him my life because I did not have long to live not even another day as I was having an active heart attack at the time of the intervention. I would never see another cardiologist beside this doctor and I am and extremely experienced well-educated Medical RN with 26 years of cardiac nursing in high-tech situations acute heart attacks and post care of stented heart attack dented blockages and open heart surgery. Once again my experience could not have been done by many I think we set a record that day but more important is that went home on Christmas Day and my Christmas present was my life God bless him and God bless all of you that choose him to take care of you. He has a true love for the art of Medicine but more importantly he has a true love for helping other human beings. Top notch

I have been in advanced nursing taking care of cardiac patients initially in the emergency room and also post-op cardiac surgical units and all intensive care units available. I do not know why this doctor does not have a 5.0 rating and if there was something higher I would check that box. His skill level is far beyond anything I've ever seen. I have rubbed elbows with the best of the best surgeons on the scale of Ben Carson neurosurgeons cardiac surgeons open bypass surgeons Etc. Dr. Satish sivasankaran is beyond the skill level of anyone that I have come in contact with. I have been a patient and have noticed and had been treated for heart disease 21 years ago. Buy a different doctor who is also excellent. However what I met this man I was immediately overwhelmed by his interest making me better not in what insurance I had or my copay or my chart number. He asked about my family he asked about my wife he asked about our children. But most importantly it was literally my last day on this Earth I truly believe this I was actually having an active heart attack while I was in the hospital waiting on catheterization. I think he was also surprised to inject the dye and noticed that I had multiple blockages. He asked me if I wanted open heart or stents while he was standing there talking to me and I was wide awake laying on my back and had a wire already in my heart. I told him I trusted him and I wanted stents it was the right decision. He corrected the immediate threat that was threatening to take my life as the pain was so severe I could barely talk to him. He then opened my circumflex artery are the front part of my heart what does 90% blocked rapidly he went back in the vessel and he unblocked the same artery further down and behind the heart where it was 99% blocked. I was literally a day or one emotional outburst from being someone that does not live on this Earth anymore. The very next morning he went back in and he went down the front of my heart there's a big vessel called the left anterior descending artery. It had many blockages he started at the bottom and worked his way up was done I had four more stats. So Ida. Of 2 days I received six stents

I followed Dr. Siva to his new practice not only for his professional knowledge and care but because of his one-on-one interest in me as an individual and not just a patient. He makes sure you understand what his diagnosis is and the path he wants to take to help you. And, he always makes it a point to ask how my family is doing and sometimes we get off topic and talk about non-medical things. He never seems rushed and his nursing staff and front office people are bright, cheerful and friendly.

Yale University trained cardiologist. Have been with him 5 years and find him to be caring, extremely competent, and interested in my well being. Has an excellent staff who help manage my condition. Most importantly, he and his staff are always available day and night which should be a comfort to anyone with a heart condition.

My routine, follow-up visit with Dr. Siva was pleasant and fruitful. He answered my questions completely and I feel that he is monitoring my chronic heart condition very carefully and very capably. His office staff are both efficient and caring, and I really like this new location. I noticed this time, that the building is dedicated to St. John, and there really is a strange sort of spirituality about the place. I was amused and at the same time, soothed by a small piece of art on the wall while I waited; it read, "It's cool to be kind". I think that must be Dr. Siva's personal philosophy, as it certainly fits him.

After my stroke last year I started to see Dr. Siva as a patient and have found him to be an outstanding person who is genuinely interested in finding out what is going on with my body, mind, and most importantly my soul. He asks questions waits for the response and follows up with others trying to make sure he is correctly diagnosing the issue and to determine the proper course of action. Even with his mask on you can tell he greets you with a smile and I feel he totally is committed to making peoples health better especially in the long run...look at his blog he provides important information that has helped me to better understand what I ca do to live a more healthy life and to pinpoint potential healthcare issues. Great person who takes pride in what he does with patience and empathy.

Check in was quick with Covid protocol. Also was brought to the exam room in a timely manner. Tiffany was so kind and friendly doing the EKG and BP. And Dr Siva I consider one of the best cardiologist’s. Easy to talk to and is thorough with his examination. I’m lucky to have found him since I just moved to FL.
