Dr. Nugent is an excellent Cardiologist. Today was my first time meeting him to try to determine if there is a issue with my heart. He explained what may be an issue based on what my Primary Physician was concerned about. ( Heart Murmur). However, he is taking additional test before making a determination on what could be a issue. I was relieved and very much so satisfied with his decision to do more testing.
