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.

No communication from office
His office called the day before the appointment to inform patient that their appointment was cancelled, because they did not get a referral from family care doctor. Patient hasn't had that family care doctor for many months and patient has been back to the office since the change of family care doctor. But as a 'courtesy' the office called the day before the appointment to inform patient that their appointment was cancelled because there is no referral. If the doctors office would call the patient to find out why there is no referral, patient would be happy to inform them that they are calling the wrong doctor.

I would like to thank Doctor Gandhi for the many years and all the great advice and procedures he has performed. After the last ablation and a procedure, he performed on my Defibrillator/ Pacemaker when I saw him for the follow up, I told him I felt 20 years younger. This was about 5 months ago, and I still feel the same. He is an amazing Specialist and easy to talk to. I am grateful I have such a knowledgeable Cardiologist. Thanks again Dr Gandhi at the Bay Area Heart Center.

Dr. Gandhi has been my Cardiologist for 5 years and I can state that he has helped me immensely, with 4 Catheter Ablation procedures, as well as numerous appointments, and ongoing care. I Highly recommend Dr. Gandhi to anyone needing a Cardiologist. Dr. Gandhi listens to my opinion and takes everything into consideration before sharing his recommendations to help you live a healthier life. I thank God and Dr. Gandhi that he was the attending physician when I was first in the Emergency Room on that fateful night in December, 2016. I am grateful for all of the great care and attention to detail along the way, from this amazing Doctor. A few of you have given Dr. a review that I'm quite sure he did not deserve. However, I would most likely not be alive today if it were not for Dr. Gandhi, and I know firsthand how smart, attentive, caring he truly is. I would give him 10 stars if I could. Thank you for giving me my life back Dr. Gandhi. I will never forget all that you have done for me.

I was at Northside Hospital and he was My cardiologist that attended me while I was there. He missed diagnosed me with a severe heart condition and put a defibrillator/pacemaker or in and now I’m in the procedure of getting it removed because several other cardiologist and bloodwork and genetic testing have all come back shown that I don’t have this condition. He was very short with me ,didn’t listen to me at all. He said I was young and healthy so I’ll be fine when in fact I informed him that I had an eating disorder that I could not help and I was not getting all the nutrients I needed. Do not go to the doctor he will ruin your life

I had a follow up visit for a heart ablation. The actual procedure went well and the follow up was thorough and quick. Prior to my procedure Dr. Ghandi gave me spent time explaining all the possible outcomes of the procedure and additional testing that would occur while I was under anesthesia. We also discussed possible pacemakers and defibrillator equipment that would be used should I require either or both. I went into the procedure feeling confident in his abilities and expertise.
