Although at times the wait is long when you arrive . Dr. shaqra is amazing at what he does. Following my heart failure he made sure I was comfortable and taken care of . When I started good to Dr. Shaqra I wasn’t myself ! After His consistent care & dignosis , he was able to pin point my case and take care of my issues. I feel 100% better now than ever. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a Cardiologist .

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
