Recently moved from Vermont and had to leave behind my Cardiologist of 21 years. Dr. Santoro made feel immediately at ease. He is attentive, professional, extremely knowledgeable, and listened to me. I’m so happy to have him taking care of me.

Always sees you in a timely fashion, no excessive waiting. Very personable.
If you have to have a pacemaker installed, he's your man.

I do so appreciate the anonymity but in this case I would be happy if you shared my comment with him. I wish I had met him, and been able to avail myself of his expertise years ago. He gave me a reassurance about my situation that gives me peace of mind. He communicates readily, fully and without medical jargon in communicating through the portal. He is an exceptional man of medicine and I have let him know that.

Had to wait just under an hour to be seen for about 5 minutes. He couldn’t get out of the room fast enough. Was condescending. No bed side manner whatsoever!
