Dr turissini
The dropoff /pickup area at entrance was much safer and convenient for me and my "walker" than the Everett location that has none.
Dr. Turissini asked questions, listened carefully, explained complicated (to me) issues and explained follow-up. He recognized the importance of a patient's overall health, not just the cardiac issue requiring the appointment. He showed compassion and understanding.
I had a cardiac ultrasound and a stress test with 2 providers. They were pleasant, informative, and provided excellent feedback and explanations.
Very orifessional
Dr. made greatly communicated with me and put me at ease . good experience
