1) They Take an Innovative Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment

From diagnosis to treatment methods, the best modern-day cardiologists take an innovative approach to treating their patient’s heart health needs.

After a “radial first” procedure, patients generally feel little pain or discomfort and can return to their normal activity level within a few days with their doctor’s approval. This is just one of several innovative procedures Dr. Popat utilizes to greatly improve patient outcomes.  

2) They Have Access to the Best Resources
