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.

Wonderful Doctor
Dr Grecul is an honest open minded person. He takes the time to listen and understands what I’m talking about. I have had 3 major heart attacks and Dr Grecul has been monitoring me regularly. I have no problems getting appointments if I stress the importance of it. The office staff has been rude but I tell them that and that they don’t have their customer service skill they should. But I can’t say that it get in the way of how I’m treated by Dr Grecul. He is an awesome and caring man.

I went into the hospital on Thursday. Stayed overnight For tests . Didn’t find out what the test results were. Dr. Grecul just said that if he didn’t find out anything life threatening, I could go home. I’m home, so I called the office, like I’m supposed to. Trying to find out what is going on! I told the receptionist that my palpitations were still bothering me. And that I suppose to call the office, because that’s what I’m supposed to do. Well she seemed put off by my request. Like I was bothering her! I told her never mind . It didn’t give me a good first impression. And I’m still left hanging of what is going with my health!

Dr. Grecul is a kind and caring man. He doesn’t over-burden you with visits and tests. Encourages questions and is patient in answering. He is a straight shooter so if you are willing to listen he is willing to offer advise (not fluff). I have been going to him for 6 yrs now and would not want to see another Cardiologist. I’m convinced I am still here because he was paying attention.

Dr Grecul is a very charismatic doctor. Although having only interacted with him briefly, I found him to be a good listener who asked all the right questions in order to gain a good understanding of the nature of my symptoms. He also has an excellent assistant in Nurse Practioner Beth Decordova.

I have gone to Dr Grecul for 3 years. As doctor, he is great! However his office staff is a serious problem. I have recently been hospitalized for afib. I was hospitalized for 7 days, until my heart went into normal rhythm. Now I call the office and am told he is booked for a month and a half. I can get an appointment with his nurse practitioner. I go to a cardiologist and never expected my heart medicine to be determined by a nurse practitioner, not even a doctor!

My experience with Dr. Grecul has been treatment for AFIB - a new diagnosis for me over the past year. The doctor appears to be genuinely concerned about my health issues (and I have many). He takes plenty of time to ask questions and answer questions and does a thorough job I think. I like his business manner - his professional approach if you will. He's very conscientious it seems to me in the way he covers a lot of territory in an office visit. I also like his compassionate side.

In January my husband went into cardiac arrest with p.e.a as he was being transported to The Heart Center, so as Palm Bay Hospital was closer he was taken there. Dr Grecul applied chest compressions for 10 minutes, not giving up on my husband. He saved his life. If it were not for Dr Grecul my husband would not be here with me this Thanksgiving I give thanks for Dr Grecul for all he did. It's a miracle he was able to save my husband.

This doctor is supposed to be a heart specialist, meanwhile he is the rudest doctor I have ever met. After he left my hospital room. The nurse turned to me and said, "I'm sorry, but he has gotten better, he used to be meaner than that". Unbelievable. This man is a risk to Health First.

This is the most condescending, supercilious, patronizing, haughty, disdainful, pompous evil hearted individual I have ever come across. It's ironic that a Cardiologist who specializes in hearts, could not have one himself. I would rather take my chances than to ever see this low life again, moreover if I was having a heart attack, again I would rather take my chances then to have this arrogant man ever help me He is evil to the core and really is the nastiest individual that I have ever met

He is one of most brilliant Doctors that I met. I had heart problems and was misdiagnosed. I felt much better with the first bout of medication he put me on. He listens to what you tell him. He knew my whole medical history before he met with me.

Dr. Grecul is a very savvy MD with lots of experience and knowledge. He is also very caring but may not show it. After losing two internists, he and his staff helped me until just a few weeks ago when I was helped finding another internist. I have AFIB. His staff has helped monitor my PT/INR, making suggestions when it went above or below the desired range. I hope to continue under his care.
