Testimonials

"I saw my PCP and was taken to see Dr. Jarbeau. She has a very nice personality, obvious she cares about her patients and loves her job. It is very refreshing to have your doctor say 'I am going to explain everything, review with you your tests and answer each question.' I knew I was in good hands and they don’t get any better than her."

"In May of 1997, while 7 months pregnant with my first child, I was diagnosed with Wolfe-Parkinson White Syndrome. I was extremely anxious and concerned. My arrhythmias were putting myself and my unborn son in danger. Dr. Schneider handled my case in such a caring and professional manner. He put my anxieties at ease and referred me for a catheter ablation by an electrophysiologist. Thanks to Dr. Schneider, I have been living a happy healthy life with my husband, and now two children. I am forever indebted and grateful to the entire staff of Cardiovascular Associates of RI. ”

"From my first visit in April 2005 with Dr. Sklar, to my two procedures at the Miriam Hospital, I have not only gotten better but feel the experience was a positive one in many ways. I look forward to coming to see Dr. Sklar for checkups and it is not an assembly line, he takes all the time that is needed. Dr. Sklar and the office staff have been very professional and courteous.”

~ Dan Donahue, Patient

"I had seen other doctors and they could not find out what was wrong with me. We were thinking of going to Massachusetts for help till we found Dr. Meringolo and Dr. Hyder. They are always concerned about how I am feeling and spend time to answer my questions. They also are always available to deal with emergency issues. Now my mother and a co-worker come to Cardiovascular Associates of RI to see Dr. Meringolo and Dr. Hyder, because of their good care and reputation."

"I first met Dr. Franklin Schneider in the Miriam Hospital Emergency Room. My family and I feel very fortunate that he was the one who took care of me that day back in 2001. Since then, Dr. Schneider has been my cardiologist and has kept a close watch over any changes in my condition. With testing, medication and a pacemaker insertion, he has given me a very pleasant quality of life. I can live on my own, drive and do my errands, as well as visit my friends-even those out of state. This past September I spent a glorious afternoon walking my favorite beach. I thank Dr. Schneider and his staff for the part they play in keeping my life so productive and happy."

"My PCP doctor recommended that I go to a cardiologist and he sent me to Dr. Schneider. I found him to have a good bedside manner, and he is always willing to spend the time to explain everything. I also appreciate the rest of the staff and all their efforts. Dr. Schneider is very proactive in his care and I owe him my life."
