I came in as an emergency patient with symptoms of a heart attack. I was fortunate that Dr. Myla and the team at Hoag hospital were there to help me. After two false negative visits the previous week, Dr. Myla saved my life. I had a 100% blockage of the right coronary artery with a clot. Somehow the muscle fed by this artery survived a was it’s little damage. Three stents were placed in me that day.

Dr. Myla is a superb physician who cares for his patients well being. I went to him because of my concerns with the doctor that was seeing me. He took the time to listen to me and my concerns. He immediatlely acquired by history and examined me. He scheduled me for an operation the next day. I truly believe that I would not be alive today if it wasn't for his immediate action and care. I highly recommend him and his staff. I wish that there were more doctors who were as caring and as prof

Dr. Myla Dr. Myla is an outstanding physician who cares for his patients' well-being. Dr. Myla did an outstanding job of identifying severe blockage in two of my heart arteries. After two stent procedures, I have no blockage in either artery. Dr. Myla is friendly and has a good sense of humor. In addition, he is very responsive to questions and a clear communicator. I highly recommend Dr. Myla to anyone who has heart issues.

Dr. Myla is an excellent Doctor. I had heart attacks in 2006 and 2007. Dr. Myla was not my Cardiologist at that time but due to insurance company changes he became my Cardiologist shortly after. He is that rare find of a well experienced physician who also stays on top of all of the new techniques and trends. Last year I developed throat cancer and his genuine concern for making sure my heart made it through the Chemo-Radiation treatments had him emailing with me on Sat and Sunday.

Dr. Myla is absolutely wonderful! He's thorough, competent, very interested in his patients and allows time to discuss his patient's concerns.

This Doctor is very proffessional extreamley knowledgeable and is sought after for speaking engagments around the world. He is well respected among the employees at Hoag Hospital.

This doctor gives vague answers to questions and when I ask for clarification he sticks his face in his computer and ignores me. For example I was referred to him for possible Afib . It turned out I also needed a valve replacement, which was done as a TAVR procedure. When I asked further about the Afib he said "you have Afibs cousin" then stuck his face in his computer and ignored my additional questions. I have tried to switch to a different doctor affiliated with the same hospital but when they find out I am his patient they give me an excuse to not take me. Very frustrating!

Poor communication SKILLS The doctor may be brilliant but he does not adequately involve his patients in life changing or saving decisions. It’s untenable to work with a cardiologist who appears concerned with CYA and is subsequently a poor listener. He may be a brilliant surgeon but his decisions were contradicted by highly respected colleagues of greater stature and the system appeared de personalized and more like a factory. I prefer to be treated as a human being in a matter impacting life or death. I’m extremely gratified I opted out and switched to a more highly respected cardiologist.

Dr. Mila misdiagnosed me with anxiety. I have a heart arrhythmia. Just because of my age I was basically turned away feeling like I was making up a story. He didn't listen. A lot of patients, moving cattle in and out. The staff is rude. Except the woman who did my stress test, she was really nice.

Dr. Myla was negligent in providing my husband care. His team "forgot to check" on lab results that could have cost my husband his life, and then instead of apologizing for the oversight, he terminated my husband and told him that he is too needy and he prefers less needy patients. DO NOT go to this man. He lacks compassion and what's worse is that he lacks follow through with his medical care. Such a shame for his patients.
