Yes, I definitely want to make a comment about the doctor. He was absolutely fantastic. I was beyond impressed and his reputation preceded him. I'm an employee at the hospital, nurse practitioner, and I really, really could not speak more highly about him. I definitely have some other friends that need cardiology services.

I like the provider but I find the conversation always steers towards long term medication and is reluctant to discuss alternatives or root causes
His doctor was excellent. He listened, he was respectful, he had to hear what I had to say, he gave me great feedback. I'm super grateful that he and his staff were willing to work on Christmas Eve to see us. I'm super thankful for that and I would definitely recommend other people to see you all there. Thanks.
Since my hearing aide was not working and it was cold outside, obtaining an Uber ride was not easy or convenient the young woman in the office escorted me to the Uber ride so I could safely get into the Uber. God bless her.
This is a really good doctor from all points of view.
He is excellent, one of the best I have ever met
Great Doctor. Glad he's still practicing with MGH.
It is always a pleasure to have my health care taken care of by this group.
I cannot reccomend Dr Honigberg enough. He is thorough, friendly, solution-oriented and has amazing bedside manner.
This was one of the most pleasurable experiences that I've had at a doctors office. Right from the receptionist to the medical assistant, who is great by the way, and of course the doctor. I went to Brigham And Women's cardiology before and this place is so much better. I am glad I transferred iover.
