My first visit after reviewing his formal professional background my experience was exactly what I expected. Starting with his personal staff reviewing my medications, past conditions, establishing a baseline EKG regarding my current situation, explaining health journey. The doctor specialist inquired deeper into my health journey making sure to inform him of everything, giving me the opportunity of time listening and taking notes, providing directional advice to be taken now and reactive actions to be made prior to my next visit reviewing initial findings. I feel strongly that Dr.Tawam can help me with a better quality journey of my health in his field of medicine.

I am a new patient transferring from a long time previous cardiologist. He took the time to listen to my concerns and address the issues. Came up with a plan that was agreeable and comfortable. Sent information to my other doctors to make sure there is continuity in care. Even spoke with the other doctor in his practice that I need to see to ensure it is done in a timely manner. Very pleased and he is very knowledgable.

I find Dr Tawam to be extremely knowledgeable about cardiac issues. He takes his time with patients and answers all of their questions which is rare in today's medical environment. As a matter of fact, Dr Tawam invites questions. He explains things in terms which are understandable by his patients. We had a very serious situation which happened to occur in his office during a visit. He remained extremely calm and gave us exact direction regarding how to proceed. He does not overreact and keeps situations in perspective, whether it be a test result or a symptom. I recommend Dr Tawam in the highest and most sincere terms.
