Dr. Halkos was a delight from the time he opened the door! Not only was he very personable, but he explained the purpose of the stress test as he viewed the heart activity during the exercise. He interspersed health education with humor, and Coached me to try "one more minute," then "10 more seconds," In order to gather as much data as he could.
