It’s always a pleasure when I’m visiting doctor kakai

Our experience has always been excellent services. Dr. Elder and his staff are professional, kind and very knowledgeable. Dr. Elder takes his time and explain the problem, and his plans to help you get well. We have been coming to Dr. Elder for years and we will continue to see him and his staff.

Long wait before seeing Doctor, other services was good

The doctors are great, long waiting room time.

Great doctor

The staff is so nice and funny each time I go thank you so much

Hands on , very personal and caring Appointments right on time .

Dr Tamam is a caring doctor who listens to your concerns and give you the best care

Received an excellent summary on all tests given.

This appointment was different from the other appointments. I was supposed to get a heart monitor. I didn’t. I didn’t get any upcoming tests that Dr. Eider wanted me to have. I understand the power went out. I still haven’t had a return call back yet. It was not Dr. Elder . It was the young man that checked me out. I expressed to him that my transportation was not good to come back for a heart monitor. He just seemed so insincere.

Everything was good

Dr. Kaki may be a good doctor, but he moves so quickly. If I had questions shoot I forget about them cause he's done in 5 minutes.

Very good Doctor always make sure my needs are met

Dr Elder is always through and make sure you are taken care of. He always addresses any concerns. Very helpful and I will always recommend him to everyone

Everyone is pleasant and patient.

Still waiting for a call to at test done said they faxed it but still didn’t get it yet it has been 4. Days.

THE FRONT DESK HAS IMPROVED CONSIDERABLE AND IS FRIENDLIER. PROFESSIONAL STAFF IS COMPETENT AND APPROACHABLE.

Wait time to long

The extensive testing process was quite impressive. Very professional and covered every aspect of cardiovascular health. Was completed in a very timely fashion and uncovered a few abnormalities to be watched and monitored which I was unaware of previously. We now have a baseline from which to work to help ensure better health as I traverse into old age! Great visit, no hurry, answered all questions prudently and thoroughly. Very happy with this practice.

Everyone is so nice and professional from the time you get there till you leave. Dr.Tamam is the the guy you need for your cardiologist.

First and foremost I didn't have to wait long to be seen. All the staff were very pleasant as well as Dr. Elder, as usual he was Kind and easy to talk to. All in all everything went well.

Dr elder is such a caring doctor he listens to me and he answers all my questions effectively.

I am to have surgery in a week. At the last minute, my primary said I needed cardiac clearance. Dr Mohamad and his team went out of their way to give it to me. I hadn’t seen him in a year but he still took good care of me. Thank you.

I am grateful for Dr. Amir Kaki’s knowledge and expertise as an interventional cardiologist – especially in a critical situation. His care and concern is genuine in follow-up visits as well.

Good service

Dr. Elder provided/provides me with excellent care.

Takes his time, goes over all test, explains things, very patient with all our questions and explains so that we understand. Would highly recommend him

At time always explain every thing

Good visit

Pretty good as usual

Very good. Dr Kaki work with his patients with care understanding and patience. His staffs are very nice.

Dr.Elder is a very down to Earth Physician, he takes time to hear the patients concerns! He covers all the bases! Very knowledgeable in his field Cardiology! Thank you Dr.Elder!

Very professional staff and did not stay in the office long. Got the result of my test and was asked a few questions. All is well.

As Always Dr Mohamad and the staff are top notch ! No 1 !

Dr Kaki understands my condition completely and is very thorough.

All good experiences.

Always wonderful, he is very kind and well experienced

Nice, friendly doctor that seems to care about his patients.

The wait was absolutely too long

Got to me right away went over test results thoroughly

Arrived early for my appointment, waited for an hour after appt. time then had to leave for another appointment. This happens all the time, especially when the doctor is involved and it's not just testing. Feels more like a production facility than a doctors office.

Timely, professional and friendly.

Wonderful Doctor with an exceptional staff!

Professional and knowledgeable

My experiences with Dr Elder are always positive. He been my doctor for over 20 years. He actually saved my life in June 2021.

Good

It’s took 8 phone calls and 6 weeks to get a prescription pre approve Daya at the Dearborn office was the only one who knew what she was doing She was an absolute excellent employee perhaps she should train the others The girl at the preapproval office at the Southfield office was rude spoke over me was of no assistance and insisted she been there 3 years and knew how BCBS worked and would not call the toll free number to talk to BCBS ASSISTANT to help straighten out the mess

Dr. Kaki❤️ I have great love & respect for Dr. Kaki, he makes me feel like I’m his only patient. He is committed to the medical profession. Also, he takes pride in all Heart & Vascular locations, with breath taking decorations!!!! Dr. Kaki, I’m honored & blessed

Very professional, gracious & courteous. Takes my health needs very seriously and I helps keep me alive

Best cardiologist in the state, very professional, very caring, n always gives great recommendations, been going there for yrs n I can honestly say he is absolutely the best

Addendum to previous review. There were lots of Black people being seen at this Dearborn facility. Did not see a single Black person on staff. It may not matter to some but I believe your staff should reflect the people you serve.

Went to facility with my sister following a serious injury. I acted as my sister’s advocate as she was still not 100%. A series of tests were ordered to rule out heart strain issues and address severe edema. The full list of medications she was taking was given to medical assistant and resident physician. Presumably the list was reviewed by the physician. We went to St. John’s Hospital with a referral to address the edema, waited for 9 hours without medical care, called the vascular institute answering service for the on call doctor 3 times. NEVER received a call back. Ended up leaving without being seen. Finally reviewed list of meds & googled ones I didn’t know. The point was to see what type of diuretic sister was taking to address edema. To my profound disappointment, there was not a single diuretic in her list of meds. How did 3 medical professionals review that list and not note that maybe a diuretic like Lasix would help reduce water retention. Ended up calling college roommate who is a nephrologist, she reviewed the list of meds & told us to follow up with primary care doc for prescription. My sister has been taking the Lasix for just one day and has dropped 3 pounds of water weight. That was a rookie mistake on the institute’s so called premium doctors. Leaving this review on Google and Yelp too. Patients beware!

Review of Dr. Elder, Cardiologist Eight Years of Exceptional Care Having been a patient of Dr. Elder for over eight years, I can confidently attest to his exceptional qualities as both a physician and a person. Dr. Elder stands out not only for his deep medical knowledge and diagnostic acumen, but also for his genuine compassion and unwavering dedication to his patients’ well-being. From the moment you step into his office, Dr. Elder’s warmth and friendliness immediately put you at ease. He commands the respect and attention of his staff, ensuring the environment is professional, attentive, and focused on patient care. Accessibility is one of his hallmarks—whether you have a pressing health concern or need a quick answer, Dr. Elder is always available to respond and guide you. What truly sets Dr. Elder apart is his ability to explain intricate medical details in a clear and thoughtful manner. Every step, from your condition and possible courses of action to recommended tests and medications, is described in detail, empowering you to be an informed participant in your own care. His honesty is unwavering; each recommendation is based not only on your medical history, but also on his personal understanding of your family health dynamics. Efficiency in care is another area where Dr. Elder excels. When tests are required, they are performed promptly, often before you even leave the office. This attention to timely diagnostics ensures peace of mind and rapid progress in your treatment plan. Dr. Elder’s dedication was especially evident when my wife faced a medical emergency that we feared was cardiac related. He saw her the very next day, organizing all necessary tests within hours. Not satisfied until every possibility was addressed, Dr. Elder proceeded with a heart catheterization to provide the gold standard in cardiac diagnosis, exemplifying his commitment to thoroughness and excellence. Both my wife and I have complete trust in Dr. Elder and his practice. For us, he is not only a highly skilled cardiologist, but also a steadfast advocate for our health. His blend of expertise, compassion, accessibility, and integrity has made all the difference in our care, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking exceptional cardiac care.

Dr.kaki is great,easy to talk too,very highly educated. Few of office staff is rude sometimes.

It’s always great when I come in to the office

EXCELLENT DOCTOR GREAT STAFF

Always a good experience. I've recommended him to my sister.

Dr Kaki has always been a great doctor. He is not only that; he is a great teacher. I can see growth in the confidence of his students as they are involved in the office visit process. They are getting the experience that will make them.great doctors as well.

I am very happy with DR elder

Literally, best care ever. Timely, professional, caring, understanding and knowledgeable from the front desk, all of the doctors and check out. Overall exceptional care.

The staff are always pleasant. I’ve never had any issues with my appointments. I’ve recommended this office to 3 people and they love it.

Good office visit! Dr. Elder is helping me get my heart stronger!

You think you're doing well with one awesome doc. Then, that doc refers you to his colleague!! Dr. Kaki is transparent...which i appreciate from a doc. He understands my twisted way of thinking about my health. He's concise & kind. Would recommend him.

Very attentive, thoughtful, & pleasant. Believes in getting to the root cause of heart issues. He & his team are awesome. Highly recommend.

Love my Dr Elder. Very kind ,respectful, caring was there yesterday 5- 20 - 25. Wait time was long 40 minutes in lobby and 20 minutes in room. But still would recommend all great Doctors.

Dr. Amir Kaki one of the best intravenous cardiologists in the Detroit metro area

The best Dr ever

It was great

Dr.is great. Asking questions a patient might forget to and is very helpful and informative.

Excelent attention and friendly personal

Satisfied with the exam.

First off Dr. Elder is the best Dr ever. He listens and don't rush. Secondly, all the staff there is so nice and makes you feel comfortable. Just note, if you are going for testing , bring a snack with you.

Outstanding care. Rania made my family feel confident in the care we were getting.

Dr. Tamam Mohamad is soft spoken and kind. He makes a point of making a person feel comfortable and listened to.

Excellent

It takes a long time to get a new way to see the doctor, a lot of test to do. Since May I am still waiting to see doc appointment, to get the results of all the information. Going on 3 months now sorry to say it but could be dead

Was told that the test could be done right away. 4 hours later was told that patients with appointments would be taken first If we had known that in the first place would have made an appointment and come back another day

Dr.Mohamad was pleasant at the same time concerned about my health condition, he took very good care of me

Excellent patient care and concern for over all care.

I left without instructions as to where or when I was to see the doctor Elder referred me to. No address where I am suppose to go for next visit

very professional and sincere

It was warm & comfortable, I felt cared for

Dr. Elder is a devoted Physician and cares very much about the health and wellbeing of his patients. From day one of my initial first appointment. I just couldn’t believe I enjoyed attending a doctor visit because not only is he the most welcoming and supportive heart specialist he is a sharp dresser! His medical team staff is are knowledgeable, thoughtful professionals and care about the patient needs. Not to mention they are willing to listen. Thank you for making me feel like I matter.

Amazing, Dr. Elder was the BEST! He made us feel welcome and at ease! He would find out what are problem was and assured us we would be well taken care of! Left the office feeling confident in his potential!! I must give kudos to the whole staff involved in the care of the patient! Your customer service is a 10+!! Thank you!!

It was OK. Dr. Elder seemed to be in a rush. The Blood Pressure Tablet only worked one day. I'm waiting for a tech to let me know how to get a new tablet.

Best Dr ever great treatment best result thank you

They are always very nice and helpful and he's a good doctor

ultra sound

All of techs that conducted the tests were very good and nice. Dr Kaki was professional and polite. But the office area itself was not good. There was mold on the ceiling vent in the exam room. Dirty ceiling tiles, holes in walls. Dr Kaki kept me waiting for over an hour with no explanation.

Really great and understanding Doctor really listens well to what issues you are having and explains everything clearly.

The wait was short, and the staff was efficient & polite.

The BEST Physician and Friend EVER!! He has helped me through some very difficult medical conditions and I owe him a lot!!! I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my medical attention!!!

Dr. Elder and his staff always are very caring and concerned, kind and helpful Love going there.

The BEST surgeon in the world, if not the universe!!!! I am forever grateful to you for saving my husband's life!!!

I love my new heart doctor thank you for saving my life

There was at least an hour and half wait time to be seen by the Dr.Elder. Was worth learning of my health status.

That day I was very scared and emotional I talked to Dr Kaki and another Doctor Both were great and listen to me and it was a big relief thank you very much .Mary Ann Bauer

Everyone was kind and friendly and helpful. They didn't waste time, but they took care of me. I was very pleased with the service that I received and would recommend your services to others.

Being an R.N., retired, I am aware of the differences in Doctors. Dr. Elder being so credentialed and a Top Doc is very important to me. He is a detail person and proactive. Only problem is his understandably busy schedule.

Definitely was taking care of professionally and was highly impressed

I got right in to see the doctor and they took great care of me

The staff is always pleasant and professional. They care about your overall health.

Dr. Elder and his staff have always gone above and beyond to address my heart issues and concerns. I have always left his office feeling optimistic and confident in my experience and the knowledge they have. 21 years into my quadruple bipass and still going- Thank God for Dr Elder and his staff:)

Me and my mom have been going to him for 7 years! Would not trust my life with anyone else, his staff is so kind! Thank you for everything you have done..

Great Doctor, she know what going on before you get to her.

This heart clinic is outstanding. They are caring and proficient, very. All my test were completed in a short period of time! Dr. Muhammad is so very caring just like all the testimonials I heard in the waiting area. What more can you ask for. The staff is awesome. Everyone is so busy and concerned!

Very knowledgeable Doctor, he goes above and beyond to make sure all my concerns are addressed. I feel very safe being treated by Dr Elder.

Very kind, and friendly

Excellent

Ok

On my first visit, I anticipated to have a long wait although I had an appointment because the scheduler told me she was squeezing me in. I waited no longer than 30 minutes. The staff was professional and courteous. Dr. Mohamad greeted me by name and reviewed my ailment. He was attentive and compassionate.

The best in my opinion. The Cardiologist in the West.

I recommend to connect with patients faster

Appointment time was precise, front desk and technicians were professional.

Awesome

Very nice visit!

My last visit was awesome. I had an ultrasound. The technician was very friendly. She was happy to start her day being able to see "clear" pictures of my heart. I made her morning and she made mine. The process was not long. I love early appointments. I can get in and out of the office. Also, the prior appointment was cool with Dr. Tamam over Google Duo. The same process was followed as being in the office, the only difference was that he couldn't listen to my heart with the stethoscope.

They are the most professional people I've ever experienced in any medical facility.

I was very satisfied with the service I received with the entire staff at this office. They were very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. Dr Elder is a very caring doctor that treat you as if you are a relative, he really does care and takes time to hear your concerns. I would highly, highly recommended this office. It was my pleasure to meet and see that there are still caring people in this world, thank you for your services and support

Dr. Kaki performed a delicate maneuver on my LAD. He was professional, courteous and allowed my input during the procedure, which helped ease a complicated situation. His follow up visit to discharge me was excellent.

Initial consult was great. Follow needs ALOT of work. Test done, needed to see doctor, no one there. No one on stand by to call. No one to consult or order meds. It's 48 hours later and a student took a message. Terrible and scary.

Services are excellent parking is not

Very support

In early February, Dr. Elder saved my life for the 2nd time (The first time was in November 2015 when he removed PE's from my lungs.). He got me transferred to Beaumont Hospital in a timely fashion into their Cath Lab while it was still possible to successfully implant a stent into my heart's main artery. Thus, Dr. Elder managed my heart attack without resorting to open heart surgery. Dr. Elder: thank you.
