The reviews listed below were collected independently of Capital Cardiology Associates through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
Dr Winston is hands down the best Cardiac Surgeon in the capital region. Capital Cardiology is extremely lucky to have such a talented long standing member in their team. He is patient, kind and understanding. Dr. Winston takes time to answer all of my questions. Truly wouldn’t want to ever see any other cardiologist who happens to be the best cardiac surgeon.

Great doctor.

He was very nice. A little rushed. I trust him.

He makes me feel safe and takes the time to answer all my questions. I couldn't ask for a better physician. He's the definition on excellence as a physician and as a person!

This appointment was my second visit with Dr. Wilson. Again, I found him to be indifferent and unconcerned about myself as a complete person. Thankfully, and hopefully, I will be returning to Dr. Healey’s care, that is if my next appointment is not once again canceled and rescheduled for Clifton Park two times, an unacceptable location, pushing out my original scheduled appointment for nine months.
