This was the first time I met Dr. Ling- I am super confident I made the right choice in choosing him. I did my research and "picked him" and am very thankful I was able to get into see him. He is highly competent and when I asked why he was sending me for a TEE instead of a stress test- he seemed appreciative that I was concerned about my care- and not upset that I asked him.He has a wonderful "bedside" manner and I felt respected by him and I'm very impressed by him!!!!

Since there were several risks in the procedure that I was facing, one included not doing anything, it was very important that I knew and understood what was involved. Dr. Ling and his support staff explained the pros and cons of each so my wife and I could reach a decision with utmost confidence of the outcome.
