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

I Highly recommend this doctor. Friendly staff ! He really gets right to the problem !

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!

for misdiagnosis that caused me couple weeks of hospitalization!

The diagnosis Dr. Ploss gave me delayed the best treatment plan I could have received. I ended up went to ER and had a pace making put in. I would rather go cardiologist in Santa Rosa or in Bay area in the future.

Dr. Ploss is terrific! Extremely knowledgeable and explains things well. The man cares! I've had a multitude of cardiac issues and he jumps on them right away. I went into A-flutter one Sunday and called him to get advice on what hospital to go to on Monday. He said, "Meet me at Ukiah Valley Med. Center in 45 minutes and I'll give you a cardioversion." Issue solved. With other doctors, I've waited months for a cardioversion! I know several other patients and they love him too!
