I had a great experience with Dr. Makkar,. My case was particularly difficult because the first time he went in my PVCs were not acting up. But your off within weeks, they started firing up again, and my life was miserable. The doShow morector was able to go in again, and find them and kill those little bastards. I have not had a PVC since my procedure three months ago and I feel great. I highly recommend Dr. Makkar, and the practice
