The hospital itself felt warm, comfortable, and welcoming, with a team of compassionate professionals who truly go above and beyond for their patients. Dr. Golkar was exceptional—caring, knowledgeable, and incredibly skilled. His professionalism and kindness reassured me every step of the way, making what could have been a stressful procedure feel much more manageable. His expertise and attention to detail were evident, and I couldn’t have been in better hands. ### About Dr. Farhaad C.

Jana J I use the Patient Portal for SCHEDULING and MESSAGING my team of doctors at Citrus Cardiology. Dr Topi is my cardiologist and his team is top notch. I’ve been a patient here since moving to Florida. I had asked my neighbors’ group who they recommended for various doctors (PCP, Pulmonologist, Oncologist, Cardiologist… ) and was recommended to Citrus Cardiology and Dr Topi. The practice is highly thought of outside the “recent Google reviewers.” 2021 was my first major cardiac need since back in 2009 when I was first diagnosed with heart failure and in need of a cardiologist. I’m have surgery coming up and trust the medical practitioners here with my life.

Terra Nicosia Ive been a patient of these Doctors for 20 years and I love all the Drs and nurses. They take care of me for all my health issues which is many. If you need a Dr that really cares about you and remembers you at every appointment this is the practice for you

Marilyn Rodriguez Dr. Has been very understanding. With our concerns.Takes the time to explain what is going on.

Linda Myers This was our first appointment to the office. My husband and I were very happy with everyone there. He said he liked his doctor and I liked mine. They were not rushed. They took time and asked questions. It was very nice.

Michael Nonya Dr Rahman is and was the BEST! Very sweet, extremely helpful, informative, and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to check in on me everyday in CMH when he -by medical standards- was no longer needed. He listened to all of my questions, and concerns. He was a BIG part of a small team that did emergency surgery on me for internal bleeding of the stomach. Cant wait to WALK into his office and see him for my follow ups. Thank you for everything Sir! As said. YOU ARE THE BEST!

EDWARD SERRA all my medical staff were excellent, DR Kim did a Great job in replacing my Aorta valve and did a triple by pass and i am doing well at this time.Also my nurses all played a great in my recovery, i thank you.

Bill Margiotta I recently moved my elderly parents to Florida to take care of them. So glad I found Dr Co to be their primary physician. My father has a long history heart problems and my mother has high blood pressure. Dr Co was extremely knowledgeable about all the conditions, advised us, liasoned with the cardiologist and got the proper testing scheduled. I feel very comfortable with Dr Co and I am very grateful to have found a competent and attentive doctor to take care of my parents.

No_BS (No BS) Dr. Ghazi has been the best doctor I’ve seen in decades. Not only does he have a wealth of knowledge and expertise, but he is also the first doctor that truly cares about each of his patients. This is far more than having a good “bedside personality”. The world needs more doctors like Dr. Ghazi.

Pat McCray My first visit to Advanced Urology Institute was a pleasant experience. The staff was professional and friendly. Dr. Seneriz spent time to listen and answer my questions and offered valuable information about my issue. I highly recommend the Institute and Dr. Seneriz. Oh, Sandy at the front desk was awesome.
