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.

Exceptional Care from Dr. Joshua Purow
Dr. Joshua Purow is an excellent doctor with superb bedside manners. He is attentive, highly professional, and truly cares for his patients.I was admitted to the ER midday, and Dr. Purow was by my bedside shortly after. He consulted with my primary care doctor and saved me from a heart attack by placing a stent the next morning. His calm and reassuring approach eased my fears, and to my surprise, the procedure was painless.I was discharged the same day feeling great, thanks to Dr. Purow’s expertise. I truly appreciate his exceptional care and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled cardiologist.

I know I'm alive today because of Dr. Purow
In 2012, I had a major coronary blockage - STEMI heart attack. In the middle of the night I was rushed by ambulance to Holy Cross Hospital. The ER doctor called in the Cath Team that was on call including Dr. Purow. At 4am in the morning I was having a cardiac catheterization which included a stent placement. Dr. Purow thoroughly explained everything as it was happening. He saved my life. On two other occasions, I was having chest discomfort. On both occasions, Dr. Purow performed the cardiac catheterizations. The last time was this past week. To say that Dr. Purow is understanding, thorough, shows excellent bedside manner and truly shows how much he cares about his patients would be the greatest understatement. If you have Dr. Purow as your cardiologist during an emergency or for ongoing care, consider yourself the luckiest living person alive. Also consider that you may be alive still because of his care.

THE VERY BEST
Dr. Purow had an excellent bedside manner, as seen by the fact that he asked questions, listened carefully, and made suggestions. There was no requirement placed on the amount of time spent! It is not easy to find a physician who has the kind of bedside manner as Dr. Purow.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Purow has impressive credentials, is very smart, practical and personable. I would never go to another cardiologist and I trust Dr Purow with the cardiac care of my 96 year old dad too. I wish I could clone Dr Purow for other required specialties. He’s the best.

Excellent Cardiologist
I had my first appointment with Dr Purow last week after a heart failure incident. He reviewed my health record, asked relevant questions and listened to my concerns. He was caring and respectful and recommended additional tests to establish the appropriate care I received an excellent service and feel I am in good hands.

Doctor Purow is my cardiologist. I live in Boca Raton, and there are a lot of cardiologist located much closer to me. However, I am ready to go far away to be MD Purow 's patient for the rest of my life. I trust him! I feel his self-confidence and responsibility, his deep knowledge and attention to me and my health problems. He is very reasonable as a doctor. He is not a commercial doctor as many others around. He is honest, intelligent and professional.
