If you are looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable cardiologist I would recommended Dr Porterfield! I have been passed out with no warning for a year; I was a patient at University they had done a tilt table test results came back POTS I was treated for not even two months, then it was a neurologist that I only saw one time passed out in her office she had blood srawn and told me to come back in February. So her and my old PCP decided that it was NES and wanted me to do group therapy to treat it. I left University and was referred to him by my new PCP the 1st appointment he said you have POTS this is POTS. Under his care my "episodes have decreased and I'm getting better. He does not through medicines at you he really thinks about you as a person as well as the best plan of action for you.
I highly recommend him
If Dr Porterfield is your doctor than you can absolutely not be in better hands!! In today's health care system, it is all about big corporate health organizations that are for profit and not patient care. Dr Porterfield is the most caring and incredibly gifted doctor that I have ever met. As I write this review Im trying to come up with words that describe the admiration and gratitude that I have towards him. The words incredible, caring, talented, compassionate, along with many others that describe perfection just don't seem to be enough. His bed side manner and his ability to describe both the diagnosis and the remedy put me at ease after seeing no less than 5 other doctors that never seemed to care or have the time to even call me back. This man saved my life. All the while giving me the comfort that a family member would give let alone a Doctor!! I never post reviews but Dr Porterfield is an exceptional man that Im proud to call my Doctor as well as a new friend. God Bless you Dr Porterfield!!
