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.

Horrible
Apparently this cardiologist wants to be a dietician. He had no cares of my very abnormal low HR, no cares of my family history, and felt no need to look further into the issue….he only offered dieting advice and no real solution or plan of care. He encouraged me to come back….not for heart related care but for dietary counseling. The most unprofessional doctor I have ever met and seriously lacks in critical thinking. There’s a reason why you can get a quick appointment….he's awful. STAY AWAY

Stress Tests
I have seen Dr.Vybiral on several occasions and the first thing that I noticed that he always has dirty fingernails then he schedules two or three appointments for the same time, my last visit took three hours the FNPs that work for him are afraid of him and say that he is very difficult to work for I have a lot of serious health problems and can't get a referral to a specialist in a timely manner and I was told by one of the other doctors that I needed to see a specialist asap will be waiting at least three months if I'm still alive.i went to my appointment today and have lost twelve pounds in less than thirty days and no one knows why and they don't seem to care about finding out so I'm trying to find another provider now so no I don't recommend him to anyone.

Unprofessional Billing
I liked Dr. Vybiral as he seemed to take a genuine interest in my heart issues. However, I received my first bill and was shocked to learn that the one sentence from him telling me "I should cut back on Alcohol to lose weight", cost me $54 as he billed it as a 15 Alcohol behavior counselling. The entire visit was not even 15 minutes. I cannot recommend him due to this billing practice.

I went to dr vybiral for heart palpitations, racing heart & unstable b/p. He did a stress test as to which I couldn’t even do after a second due to my bp dropping & racing heart. He said it was good. He did a heart monitor & said I had some palpitations & he wasn’t going to do any other test. I got a second opinion & they found out yes I do have heart palpitations that is coming from tachycardia along with an underlying condition. So now I have to see a heart rhythm specialist. He claimed that all that was wrong with me was anxiety. My grandmother died at 34 due to heart disease. Plus my mother, grandfather & great grandfather has had strokes. I wouldn’t ever recommend him for nothing. I am glad I got a second opinion.

Horrible and unprofessional! I went for a stress test and he has stood me up for 3 different appointments. He is supposed to call and doesn’t. I have no idea what the results are and if I have heart problem and he won’t return my calls. The front office workers don’t believe me that he isn’t calling. They are irritated with me because I keep calling. What a joke this place is. Stay away!

My 80 year old mother was experiencing irregular and fast heartbeats and exhaustion. She went to see Dr. Vybiral who basically told her it was due to her age and that she would just have to live with it. Fortunately, she got a second opinion from a doctor in Winston Salem who said her exhaustion and irregular heartbeat was caused by (continuous) A-Fib and that they can “shock” her heart to get it back to a normal beat. If you get an “old age” diagnosis— get a 2nd opinion!

I’m currently in the ER with my friend who is a patient of Dr. Vybiral’s. She was told by him to call whenever she was having cardio related symptoms because he wanted to know how it was disrupting her life. She called him and left a message, like she was instructed to do. When he called back, we were in the ER by this time and she was having extreme chest pain. I took the call for her and he was rude and acted as if it was an inconvience and let me know that it was his emergency line she called

I was overjoyed that Dr. Vybiral was going to let me be seen along with my husband at his appointment. When he came in to see us he was smiling and was very friendly , and immediately shook hands with me and husband, noting that we were both Veterans, and thanking us for our service. He impressed me when he looked straight into my eyes, and said 3 times his very important doctors orders like no sugar and no salt but the hardest thing was, no sweet iced tea.. He said, I want you well,not ill
