Write a Review256-231-2552

Staff was very kind. Dr. Salame was very informative and helpful. All the studies he ordered can be done in his office which is great!

Dr. Salame is a great Dr. Very interactive and concerned with patients long term health. Communicates so the patient understands the diagnosis and the options for improved health. Staff has always been very courteous. Actual time from appointment to being seen is a little slow based on the volume of patients they see. I have had only good experiences while using this office.

I would not recommend this office at all! Go TO UAB!! I had an extremely long wait (somewhat understandable for cardiology) and the staff was less than pleasant. Once getting in the exam room the male nurse answered his cell phone and left the room while talking to me about the problems I was having. When the Dr. finally came in he was rushing with me and left the room ( I was under the impression he was coming back) and the receptionist came and got me from the exam room for checkout. I never got to ask him all of my questions or concerns. (it was close to closing time so i guess they were just ready to leave). He ordered special testing and I returned in the following week. His echo technician ( blonde with red glasses) was very rude and unfriendly. I dont recall seeing one smiling face in this office other than the long-haired brunette who checked my weight and blood pressure. They told me after my testing if i didnt hear back within a week to call their office for my results. I called on a thursday and left a message at the nurses desk at around 1:30pm. I never heard back so I called back the following day around 3pm and they were CLOSED! (The website states they are open mon-fri til 5pm. I really hope nothing is seriously wrong with my heart because this practice has a serious lack of concern and compassion for their patients. I highly recommend anyone needing a cardiologist to go to Birmingham at UAB where they take their time with you and care more about their patients health and well-being than getting off work on time.
