“Dr. Vinod Jorapur has been my cardiologist since 2012. He has helped me maintain my cardiac and aortal health in good standing. His knowledge of prescriptions is superior (I developed an itchy cough from one, which my GP wasn’t able to pinpoint but Dr. Jorapur correctly attributed it to a particular Rx and solved it. ). His office is always responsive and he responds to my emails immediately. I highly recommend Dr. Vinod Jorapur.”
