Dr Salik is a special cardiologist and I am lucky he is now part of my care team. He is engaging and takes the time to listen. He did not rush me and spent quality time with me. My cardiac disease is fairly new to me, and he was very reassuring, answering all my questions. He needed to consult with one of my other providers and promised to message me with the plan, which he did later that day. Dr Salik is a doctor who is patient centric and I feel very safe in his capable hands.

The issue that I went to see Dr. Salik for is something I've been dealing with since 2020. Over that time, I've seen multiple specialists, multiple doctors, and I have to say that none of them had provided the level of concern, care, empathy, and understanding that Dr. Salik did. He clearly knew my case, the history. He even went so far as to tell me about how he studied my case over the weekend, which seemingly would be his own time. But then when I was in the office with him, his compassion level was extraordinary and his knowledge equally is extraordinary. And I left there feeling extremely comfortable, which is something that I haven't experienced in the last five years of dealing with this. So it was just amazing. And I'm very hopeful that moving forward, he'll be able to help me with what's going on in my health right now.

It was very clear that he cared about me and he knew what he was talking about. It also made it clear that if he had looked at the charts, the previous exams in my medical history in the six months between last time I was in the hospital and when I saw the doctor in Boston, he would have been able to tell the same thing that he told me that morning at the appointment, that my test results did not show any sign of the reason that I was there.
