I have had Dr Papaleo for 30 years and he is excellent. Performed 2 stents in 2016. He supplied me with sample cardio meds when my wife and I both lost our jobs and had no health insurance. Compassionate and caring. Would recommend him in a heartbeat ( pun intended)!

Doctor Papaleo is fantastic. He always takes his time to listen and to also ask questions. He answers my questions in a way that I never have to question what he has said. I am totally thankful to have him as my cardiologist!
