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.

He is AMAZING
I traveled 9.5 hours for Dr. Choucair and do not regret it in the slightest. He is absolutely phenomenal as a doctor and as a person, in every single way. He fixed my heart issues when no one else would and I am forever thankful to him. You will NEVER find a better Cardiologist, or doctor in general. He listens and answers every question you might have. Make him your Cardiologist!!! You will not regret it!

Top ep surgeon in Texas handsdown
Not only does this provider have extensive knowledge and background and skill he takes time with his patience. He remembers you, and he cares about each and every individual not as a patient, but as a person I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

Outstanding Doctor and Medical Staff
We were highly appreciative and impressed with the professional attention that we received from Dr. Choucair and his medical staff in our visit to his office. My wife's symptoms and concerns were well clarified in easy and simple terms. The doctor reviewed all her medications and provided valuable information as to the purpose and proper time to take them. Being from out of town, we are extra thankful to the office staff for accommodating our visit in such short notice. There is no doubt, Dr. Choucair is an excellent cardiologist.

Excellent - Excellent doctor. He takes time with you during your appointment to explain your situation and what options you have. He let me decide what I wanted to do, with my afib and then my slow heart beat. Saved my life

Dr. Choucair has taken care of my late husband, my daughter, as well as myself. I have never met a more compassionate and caring doctor in my many years of seeing doctors. I am an RN and have dealt with many doctors over the years. I would not consider seeing any other cardiologist. While the wait times are generally long, I have never felt rushed once I got into see the doctor. Dr. Choucair is very thorough but beyond that, he is a very kind person.

Dr Choucair and his team make the best doctors office i have ever been to! He talked to us like old friends. He took his time and explained everything. He showed me my testing pictures and was very detailed about my condition. I called his office and spoke to Mr Enreque regarding my medications and symptoms. We spoke on the phone for over half an hour answering ALL of my questions and put me at ease. He even called the following week to make sure i was doing okay. Thank you Dr Choucair! Would recommended to anyone!

I had my appointment with Dr. Choucair about a month and I must say he is the best cardiologist I’ve been too. He diagnosed my condition right away. Two previous cardiologist that I went to couldn’t even pick up on my heart condition, but this doctor did. Thank you Dr. Choucair I look forward to seeing you manage my condition. Thank you for listening to me and explaining everything. You are wonderful!

Dr Choucair is truly caring and understanding and makes you feel like a friend. He can be late at times but worth the wait as he does take his time with me at every visit until I am satisfied. His staff is small and something it is hard to get through. When I can't go in to see him I can always count on his young assistant (forgot his name Henry?) to get back to me with a answer for whatever I may need. He is compassionate on the phone and helped me with everything! Truly great staff.
