List of David R Ploss's Reviews
Not a good experience unfortunately they are very nice people but are too busy to take on new patients should not do that. Took me a month and a 1/2 to get an appointment so I have for 5 minutes. Said I need to get an echo stress test scheduled out for a month out the day before they told me they could not get me in because it was not approved.Insurance schedule one-on-one with a doctor and he blew it off.I respect the fact hes a busy doctor but if you're that busy don't take on new patients
Very good. He saved me..what else can i say…i am sitting here with my wife at home,i feel so much better. Blessings on Dr ploss
Abruptly stopped talking to me when I was in the middle of an episode of autonomic dyreflexia. Oof.
Dr. Ploss and his staff were beyond all expectations helpful, alert, calming, and clear about my options through an ablation operation and a short time after installation of a pacemaker, which he did himself. It was necessary on very short notice as I was moving and he made that happen. I am very grateful to have had him as my doctor. He's my sister's cardiologist as well, and came highly recommended from her. Thank you, Dr. Ploss!

I was employed by Dr. Ploss. I also worked with him for about eight years. And I was his patient. Integrity without question. The patience of Job. Way beyond reasonably intelligent.
