    Only complaint is that Dr Mehta has so many duties other than seeing patients, she has limited time available for seeing patients and therefore getting an audience with her is difficult and she is tightly scheduled even when you DO get on her calendar.

    Dr Mehta is a kind and thorough practitioner. She had reviewed my previous history and cardiac testing in detail prior to seeing me. She listened to my thoughts about my situation and asked me questions that helped her form what I believe is a sound assessment of my cardiac care needs. I particularly appreciated her explanations and ideas to optimize my medications. Moreover, we made clear plans for follow-up and she explained how she will collaborate with my Emory primary physician. Great doctor!
