Lucky to have him as my doctor

It's hard to describe how trusting I am of Dr. El-chami. He came highly recommended by my primary care doctor and also a close friend of mine who is an Emory graduate and MD in internal medicine. I trusted him to perform an SVT ablation which fixed a huge problem for me. His PA (Blalock) is also excellent. I trust him with my 'heart'....literally.
Very nice and genuinely concerned.
Dr. El-Chami is very professional and knowledgeable with good bedside manner
Good experience
Dr. El Chami is the best!
Excellent meeting with physician and NP to discuss planned procedure!
In depth explanation of informing me to the risks & advantages of my choice
I am very impressed with Dr. El Chami and his staff.
Dr. El Chami is 'the bomb!' He is fabulous; is personal, professionally, and comprehensive of his cardiologist. EXCELLENT
Both Dr. El Chami and his Fellow (Apologies for forgetting her name) provided much-needed additional details about the "why," "how," and "what if" concerning an ablation. The words "routine procedure" were NEVER stated during the visit, which was appreciated beyond measure. I felt valued as an individual rather than a data point. To a cardiology patient, a common cold is routine, not a heart ablation.
In my opinion Dr. El Chami is the best.
Explain to things and answered my questions and always so very nice
As I said before, Dr. El Chami and all the nurses and other care providers were very kind, concerned, and helpful. Dr. El Chami"s office called me the next week to set up an appointment in February to get my Watchman. This was good news to me.
Very informative

I thought my battery had to changed in 4 months but after seeing me he looked it up and told me it was 9 months. He didn't have to do that
The doctor noticed an update from a different doctor in September which heads him concerned. He discussed it with me and together we came up with a plan of action.
Dr El Chami was very helpful with future care.
He's the best!
As always Dr El Chami listened to our concerns, spoke with our daughter although she was extremely sleepy and was hard to understand, made recommendations after reading reports from the pacemaker lab which gave us much relief. He told us to call any time for an appointment if needed and we feel comfortable with that.
