Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr saw my wife in the early afternoon on a Monday. Stated no heart issues. By Tuesday morning she was on a med evac chopper in critical heart failure. Now on life support because her heart will not sustain her. If I could I d leave a picture of what he's responsible for. Wouldn't take a gmdog to see him for any reason. Only reason for 1 star is because I can't leave zero

Dr Caceres has been my Cardiologist for close to 15 years. He diagnosed me with V-Fib and implanted an ICD. He is very good about explaining the many problems with my heart. When he and his colleagues were unable to keep my heart rate down, he recommended I seek a second opinion from Cleveland Clinic. With his help I had all my medical records sent to Cleveland and was set up with an appointment in no time. I had open heart surgery in Cleveland which helped but did not take care of the entire problem. I was unable to return to Cleveland due to my health for an extra procedure they had scheduled for me. Dr Caseres then sent me to Springfield IL by ambulance and Dr Scherschel , an Electrophysiologist came to the rescue and performed the procedure. Thanks to Dr Careses, I have gone from a wheelchair or walker to walking unassisted and am on an exercise program.
