The reviews listed below were collected independently of The Cardiac and Vascular Institute through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
I appreciate his attention to detail that enhances my ability to continue to my cardiac maintenance. That same attention 4-5 years ago led to several issues previously unnoticed by TCVI physicians. Three significant issues were alleviated through open heart surgery. I owe him for this. My thanks and gratitude to Dr. Pondicherry. RJF

I don’t know if it’s lack of knowledge or training—1) he is not aware of at home cholesterol testing 2) he dismisses my concern about my triglyceride/HDL ratio saying it’s not impt because it’s not on the lab test. AI reports “this ratio may be a better predictor of heart disease than LDL/HDL ratios.”
3) I ‘ve been twice now that “I worry too much”—once before and once after my heart attack
This adds up to a lack of confidence
