Dr Mekuria is EXCELLENT. she is conservative, takes an excellent medical history, listens and issues reasonable and appropriate interventions. I first went in June after noting I had a sudden and unexpected increase in my BP readings. I am a long-distance cycling, runner and am VERY FIT, so this was unusual. I had an abnormal ECG upon my first visit along with the persistent elevated BP reading. i was kinda a "zebra". so she ordered that i undergo a Cardiac CT a 2D echo and carotid ultrasound to further investigate. i did all that (with the dedicated and personalized assistance of her front office staff. Long story short, I have a very slightly enlarged heart due to my exercise conditioning, but i also had new onset hypertension which required medication. We mutually discussed the best med which would work while not interfering with my very very active lifestyle. so far so good and my numbers are trending downward and the med may need further tweaking. This office is ORGANIZED, communicates well, no drama and very flexible and personable in helping all folks of all walks of life. It is a smaller practice- I fond this to be a HUGE positive factor. So, if you want more calm, one on one competent conservative cardiac care, i HIGHLY endorse Dr Mekuria.

From ease of scheduling my appointment, great office reception, professionalism displayed by the entre team, Dr. Shubir Sofat, Hanna, and Margie was 5 STAR....

I…read morewent in for a physical recently with a new Doctor and talked about my desire to get back in the gym and lose some weight - I've been experiencing some conditions that led me to worry about my cardiovascular health. So I was scheduled for a Nuclear Stress Test. They inject a radioactive isotope into your cardiovascular system - then use a special imaging system to capture imagery of your heart and cardiovascular system. Then they put you on a treadmill, hook up a bunch of sensors to you, get your heart rate up to 148, then inject another round of radioactive isotope into your system - then re-image you a second time. After you get off the treadmill, you are then allowed to eat some snacks and drink juice or water which they provide. The two ladies who were the nurse technicians who ran me through the sequence of steps were very nice. They warn you to expect to be there 3-4 hours - I got out in 2.5 hours. My results came back today and no problems were found - so onto the gym!

This is a heart care facility and it is run by John Hopkins Community Physicians Heart Care. I know that you probably aren't supposed to comment about the decor in a doctor's office, but it was decorated for the holidays with warmth and whimsy. It really does take your mind off going in for a test. I am used to seeing my cardiologist, but he wasn't overseeing this test. The doctor I saw today was very nice. But, definitely not warm and comforting like Dr. Kumkumian. The technician who was also helping with the test was very nice too. She was very supportive. So, in summary, the office is a very efficient and professional heart care team. I recommend them for their care and expertise.

I would have liked a little more explanation from Dr. Anis about my diagnosis (which got chalked up to minor inflammation of the heart lining due to a potentially associated virus that needed to just run its course), and I only got to see him a few minutes at the end of my third visit.
