Dr Alkahlil is the best cardiologist and so glad to have him as a part of my care team. He is the most caring person I know and would not be alive without his expertise, compassion and pulling together other providers to bring the best team together for my overall health (and in my case, survival)! All doctors could learn a lesson from Dr. Alkahlil on his commitment, and compassion, servant leadership with his patients. You know you have a great doctor when those who support or work for him, all speak up when his name is spoken as such an amazing provider and incredible human being

This was a very quickly arranged visit because I was not doing well. I was put onto Dr. Alkhalil's schedule the next day. He spent quite a bit of time before the visit reviewing my records. When he came in he knew what my problem was and what he needed to do. He was very soft spoken and very polite, I felt very good about talking to him and confident that he was going figure what I needed to get done. His nurse [...] was so kind and helpful about getting the appointment set up so quickly, she answered so many questions.
