I am so grateful for Dr. Michael Mazar. He discovered that I actually may have had a seizure instead of a heart problem. He was professional, considerate, and helped me figure out what the problem may have been. This was important to me because I believe once we can identify the problem, then we can solve/treat for it.

Dr Mazar is one of two doctors at UCLA, but I have complete trust in. I ask a lot of questions when it comes to my heart health and the medications I take, and he spends whatever time is necessary.

Dr. Mazar is completely professional. He gives me the same care each time I come for my visits which is twice a year. His care, knowledge and bedside manner is always the very best. I feel blessed to have him as my cardiologist. I know that I am in good hands. He always looks over my. blood work and adjusts my care accordingly.. Also I have to tell you that his nurse is exceptional! She’s very thorough, kind, knowledgeable, and makes me feel welcome and relaxed. I love UCLA. I have never been in a medical center that their standards are so high and consistent. I have been going to UCLA since 1997 and their standards remain high day in day out and year in year out.The only changes I have ever seen is when they make something EVEN better than it has already been. Remarkable.!!! Congratulations!
