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.

Everything about my 1st appointment was excellent. She is very caring, concerned and willing to listen. I would highly recommend her.

Something's not right
She's changed. Visits used to be friendly, comfortable. The last few times she's been a little distant, but more detailed on the doctoring stuff (not a bad thing). She took me off a statin and wouldn't explain why when I asked - more than once. She changed my meds even though the changes have been difficult for me; I am really struggling. She failed to get back to me on a referral after weeks of waiting and at least one remnder. And i think she is mad at me for reminding her. I don't want to leave her because I thought we had a good relationship. but I don't believe she is putting me and my medical needs first. Something's not right.

Absolutely the worst cardiologist I have ever been to, if you value your life don't trust it to her!

Not a good experience
Mom has been under her care for a while, dealing with AFiB. Her last few appointments have been getting worse. My son and daughter-in-law care for Mom, so they were there with her. Dr. Bobbish yelled at them, saying they were not caring for her right and that they were the reason she had been in and out of the hospital lately. She also started pushing to put Mom in a home where she could perfectly live in her own house. While she was busy yelling at my son, Mom's heart rate skyrocketed. If this continues, she's going to be the one who puts Mom back in the hospital. This sort of behavior is unacceptable for me.

Something has changed.
This very loving, caring doctor has become very cold. Four of us have gone to her for many years and have always loved her. Since Covid, she acts scared of everyone. No more warm hugs. Yesterday she told my 92 yr old mother-in-law, because of her age, she should consider getting off of her cholesterol meds and basically let the aging process run it's course! Mom asked questions, and really got a cold response. Mom is alert, active and doing great in spite if her diabetes. She told Dr. Bobish she saw no reason to change a thing after all of these yrs. Going to the car, Mom was totally upset. She said she has never been treated so cold in her entire life. She asked me if her impression of Dr. Bobish was correct, that it sounded like she was being told that it was past time for her to check out of life and to hurry it along by getting off of some of her meds. Indeed, it was the strangest visit with her we have ever had. We will never return, we have canceled all of our appts.

Terrible
My mother has been in congestive heart failure for weeks and trusted Bobish to treat her. Bobish just kept changing her blood pressure medications meanwhile my mother’s cardiac monitoring service was calling the office telling them her heart rate was through the roof and my mother was calling the office and telling them she was experiencing swelling in her legs and struggling to breathe. They acted as if nothing was wrong. Thankfully my mother went to another doctor who immediately had her admitted to the hospital.

She was rude and unprofessional. She mentioned health problems that I may have before even looking at my chart. Also, tried to address health problems out of her specialty which she was wrong. Will be seeing someone else.

Dr is excellent. Staff not real responsive to returning phone calls. Not sure if it's a distance problem or staff. Waited 10 days to get a cardiac med refill. Finally got a 3 day rx from pharmacist. Still waiting g for a phone call.
