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.

My husband, Dan, has been Dr. Markarian's patient for 5 plus years. Dan was fortunate to have Dr. Markarian on a Saturday morning when we rushed him into the Emergency. After nearly four hours, she came out and told me what had happened to Dan and what she and another doctor did; virtually chiseled out blockage and planted four stents - Dan is doing well. She was most comforting. Her office staff is wonderful and my special thanks to her assistant, John, who has been most kind and helpful. Kay Tompkins in Kailua

Dr Markarian saved the life of my wife two (2) times. She was very quick to diagnose what was happening and performed the necessary surgeries immediately after. Wife is doing great and we will always be grateful to have had Dr Markarian at such a critical time. She was clear in her explanations of what was taking place and always keep me informed, which relieved a lot of worry.

I'm a doc grad from the same school. I was having weird 'pauses' in my heartbeat and getting weak so went to see another Cardio guy who was awful, NO EXAM, and I had to set up testing nearly a week later. Uh uh. I looked her up and went in as a new patient. She did a THOROUGH history, vitals (great staff, nursing and P.A.) and EXAM. Then she set me up right in-house for an Echo to look at how my heart was pumping, a stress echo + holter monitor SAME DAY. EXCELLENT OFFICE/EXAM/WORK-UP! Five star

I have been Dr. Markarian's patient for the past 3-4 years. Her treatment including heart surgery, requiring three stents. I have been very satisfied with her care and do not hesitate in recommending her to others. Her assistant, John, has been especially helpful.

Dr. Markarian completely understands my complicated multiple heart complications including the very difficult diagnosis of Prinz Metal Angina/ Vaso Spasm heart attack. I have found very few Doctors actually understand the condition and Dr. Markarian has an exceptional ability to understand the problem and provide the best plan of care possible. She is kind & not judgmental and makes you feel comfortable with everything including treatment plans. I have not had to wait at all for appointments.
