Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very thorough & professional
Both Dr Sobol and her NP were attentive and answered all my questions. They explained my diagnosis and were thorough with tests and follow-up. Would absolutely recommend

Dr Sobol gave me my life back!
Dr Sobol met me during the most scary time in my life. She diagnosed my PAH problem and began her search for the right combination of care, meds and psychology to lift me up to my now healthy status. She continues to follow me and leads me into a positive mind set that helps me to continue on my path to good health. She is definitely my Earth Angel! I love her.

DR. IRINA SOBOL SAVED MY LIFE AND KEEPS ME AS HEALTHY AS I'VE BEEN SINCE 2017 WITH PAH, A LIFE THREATENING CONDITION. SHE IS ALSO MY GUARDIAN ANGEL IN ADDITION TO BEING A BRILLIANT CARDIOLOGIST. DR. SOBOL ANWERS MY QUESTIONS THOUGHTFULLY, INCLUDING THOSE I AM TOO TERRIFIED TO ASK. PAH IS A SCARY WORLD AND SHE HAS GIVEN ME AND MY FAMILY TOOLS TO DEAL WITH IT. I AM GRATEFUL THAT SHE HAS BEEN MY DOCTOR.

Dr Sobol is great
Dr Sobol is thoughtful, friendly, and patient. I saw her when I was in the hospital and now I’ve continued care with her moving forward. She really listens to you and provides solutions with thorough explanations. She is approachable and friendly while staying professional. I never wait very long to see her and always leave appointments feeling like I was heard.
