Juan M. Esnard, MD, FACC

If I could give less than one star I would. The office staff and doctor were all in need of some bedside manner classes. No smiles from anyone. Of course I didn’t go for the smiles but felt that very little (zero) attention was given to my medical issues. And lastly, I have now been coughed in my face by an uncaring physician. Take your chances. Hopefully they were all simply having a bad day!

Dr. Esnard has been a great doctor in the past. The tech that did my echocardiogram provided inadequate information about my condition. The tech was baffled when I mentioned I have e a VSD - due to results tech doesn't seem to know the difference in a mitrial valve and a VSD. The office staff called with results - she could not answer my questions, and proceeded to tell me "mitrial leak is normal in aging." Nope, someone has their wires crossed as I have a small VSD with a whole in the upper left valve - not a mitrial leak - a ventricular septum leak. I was born with it. I either need another echocardiogram with a qualified tech or answers.

Well to start with I hate to post anything negative especially with a doctor I considered to save my life 15 yrs ago but I visited Dr Juan Esnard and he walked in and I told him I couldn’t breathe or walk to the mailbox and back without getting weak and he simply told me this is how it was going to be until I pass away listened to my heart and he set up a echo for a week later and sent me on my way. The same night I started throwing up and couldn’t move needless to say the EMTs were called in Irwin county (thank god another miracle)which carried me to coffee regional hospital where Dr Knol was the cardiologist on call there and immediately started treating me life flight to Emory and today I’m alive and able to breathe and walk to the mailbox. Dr Esnard totally failed me but I pray he help

Dr Esnard is a highly skilled, compassionate, thorough, and respectful cardiologist. He has been my cardiologist for over 5 years, seeing me initially for an emergency heart cath, and has followed my case since my cardiac bypass surgery following the cath. Very pleased with the continued care he and his excellent staff have provided.

Dr. Esnard is a very knowledgeable and caring cardiologist. He has given care to both of my parents. My Mother's recent checkup was an efficient office staff greeting followed by a wonderful doctors visit. Thank you Dr. Esnard for your care.
