Dr. Krishnamoorthy is wonderful. I switched from my Cardiologist at RGH to Dr. Vijay after attending a few of my husband's cardiology appointments after my husband's heart attack. Dr. Vijay was so very attentive, asked questions, listened and most of all talked "with" my husband not "to" him.

I disclosed that as a victim of [...], the stress/trauma may have an adverse impact on my cardiac health. This made him visibly uncomfortable and he opted not to discuss this matter. Otherwise he was thorough, and to be honest I'm not expecting a cardiologist to know anything about psychiatry or social-behavioral matters

Considerate of my aversion to Pharmaceuticals. Began with minimal dosages, explained medication & effects, and schooled me on self-care with very helpful suggestions. Friendly and respectful manner. Good listener- quite understanding, which is unusual because of my cognitive disfunction.
