Patient Reviews

I was very impressed with the doctor's thorough examination of my cardiac condition. He is quite the artist when it comes to drawing! His ability to convey his thoughts through word and artistic imagery really helped me to fully understand my medical condition. I trust him without reservation.

July 13, 2026

The medication that I didn't know if I was still on, metoprolol, I am still taking.

I had an 8:00am appt & was there by 7:45. No appt before me & was still not seen on time.

June 21, 2026

5

While I was sitting in the waiting room another patient came up to check in. He said that he had an appointment with the same doctor at 10:15, the same time as I had. He was called back a couple of minutes before I was called. I was kept waiting in the exam room for over 30 minutes. I walked out & complained to one of the staff who stated that it wasn't possible because they know not to double book. He came into the room at 10:50. My blood pressure was elevated because of this. Needless to say, I was very unhappy with this.

June 19, 2026

I Really have confidence in this Medical Team. ??????

All of the staff at the reception area and the nurse in the back, Emily, and the doctor Jacob, they were all very polite, very professional, and very helpful. And it was a pleasant experience and I appreciated it. Thank you.

Dr. Jacoboff. He wasn't in a hurry. Took his time to explain what was going on with my health. Drew pictures on a board to illustrate. Very helpful! Allowed time for my questions. I felt very comfortable and not rushed. When I said maybe I should change my primary dr. He was the one that met me at the counter and handed me a list of possible providers. He was never concerned about the clock. He wanted to be clear and tell me exactly what was happening.

June 6, 2026

5

Everyone on the staff from the physicians to the mas to the RNs to the front desk were all phenomenal. Give them all raises and company cars. Do not promote them into management because they are too cool for that.

Dr Jacoboff emphatically knows his area of medical expertise, and does a good job of explaining it to me. I feel totally confident in his abilities and desires to repair, as best he can, my medical defects, and help me function more normally with problems he cannot totally repair. He is a God loving man of whom I trust completely!

I was very impressed with the doctor's thorough examination of my cardiac condition. He is quite the artist when it comes to drawing! His ability to convey his thoughts through word and artistic imagery really helped me to fully understand my medical condition. I trust him without reservation.

Doing good CPR is critical to save someone from cardiac arrest.

KevinCare

There aren’t many people out there who can say they survived cardiac arrest at 30. Kevin Miskewicz can.

According to the American Heart Association, more than 90% of people who experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die. Those who survive often have permanent neurological disabilities. But Kevin’s story has an incredibly fortunate ending, thanks to the highly coordinated work of his medical experts at Wellstar.

Recovering from cardiac arrest is something Kevin will never forget. It lives forever as a piece of his health history—one that includes a dedicated healthcare team—and his wife, who was the first to save his life.

There aren’t many people out there who can say they survived cardiac arrest at 30. Kevin can.

CPR to the rescue

Kevin woke up on Labor Day 2017 at 5:30 AM to take the dog out. Pausing to adjust the thermostat as he came in, he fell, knocking over a lamp.

He was in cardiac arrest.

With no symptoms and no known pre-existing condition, this was unexpected, but that didn’t stop his wife, Andrea, from jumping into action.

“If it weren’t for me knocking over a lamp when I passed out,” said Kevin, “she would have never woken up and saved my life.”

In addition to calling 911 and unlocking the door for the paramedics, Andrea performed CPR for 10 minutes.

“Kevin’s wife doing good CPR was critical,” said Dr. Arthur Reitman, the interventional cardiologist who was a vital part of Kevin’s treatment team at Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center. “More than five minutes of poor blood flow to the brain can result in permanent irreparable injury from which a patient is unable to recover.”

Coordinating multidisciplinary care to save a life

When paramedics arrived at Kevin’s home, he had no pulse and was not breathing. As the paramedics performed their lifesaving work, he technically died two times.

The ambulance took him to Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center, where he was initially assessed and treated by Dr. David Jacoboff. The interventional cardiologist implanted an intra-aortic balloon pump to stabilize him. Then, he transferred Kevin to Wellstar Kennestone for highly specialized heart care.

When Kevin arrived at Wellstar Kennestone by helicopter, his heart function wasn’t strong enough to support his body. Dr. Reitman and a team of doctors including a cardiologist, a pulmonologist and critical care doctors worked in tandem to put Kevin on an advanced life support system called veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Better known as VA-ECMO, it took the heart “offline” so it could heal. The technology removed unoxygenated blood from his body, oxygenated it and pumped it back in for the next three days.

“Very few places in the state—only four or five hospitals—have the technology and specialized training to put a patient on ECMO,” Dr. Reitman explained.

Lifesaving Wound Care Treatment in a Family Atmosphere

Two-time breast cancer survivor Heidi Bohlmann was accustomed to successfully facing health challenges. But when stomach pain brought the Roswell resident to Wellstar North Fulton Hospital’s Emergency Department (ED), she faced her ultimate challenge: a torn small intestine, which led to a life-threatening infection.

“I remember being in the ED, then waking up in a hospital room 11 days later with machines all around me,” said Bohlmann, 58. “My family from Wisconsin was there. No one was sure I would pull through.”

Bohlmann underwent surgery to repair her perforated bowel, which included creating a hole in her abdomen so the contents of her small intestine could empty into an external pouch. Called an ileostomy, the procedure allows the intestine to heal.
