Dr. Snapper and his staff are amazing. His MA, Michael, was wonderful. She is professional, knowledgeable and caring. I cannot find words to express how great Dr. Snapper is. He takes the time to educate the patient and also to ensure that the patient understands what is happening in their body. It was a struggle to wait 11 months for an appointment but it was well worth the wait. It was a relief to finally have a doctor and staff that completely understood what I was experiencing and knew the exactly what to do to put me on a better path.

The first time I visited this office I was completely satisfied. The doctor spent a good amount of time asking questions and explaining about my condition. This time, he seemed rushed and dismissed my concerns.

I was incredibly pleased with my experience with Dr. Snapper. He was able to provide some answers that I've been looking for for a long time and it was incredibly validating and a huge relief to me to know finally what was going on. He listened carefully and took time to really understand what was going on. He's incredibly knowledgeable and I feel very blessed and grateful that I was able to get in to see him understand why he's booked out as far as he is.

Dr Snapper is very knowledgeable and truly cares. Wellstar definitely needs to offer more providers that specialize in autonomics, Ehler's Danlos syndrome. Mayo and other facilities across the country have various specialist and teams that specialize. Unfortunately we do not have that in our area.

It was not a good experience at all. The assistance wasn't that friendly at all. Also I had to wait in the medical room for about forty five minutes before the doctor came in. This physician has changed my BP medication about four times and he still hasn't gotten it right.

Mainly just want to say thank you for the whole team. It's great to be able to go to a place where they actually listen to what my daughter has to say about her health and she's not getting looked at as a kid or someone who's over-exaggerating, but someone who actually believes and listen to what she has to say about how she's feeling and what's going on. Thank you.

Yes, I've been with Dr. Snapper for probably 50 years, 40 years anyway. He's always been very good at recognizing my problems and solving them for me. Right now, I'm in pretty good shape. He tells me I'm in excellent condition for everything that's going, for heart problems. Anyway, I think he's one of the best doctors around. The staff is always good there at his office for WellSTAR. Thank you very much for the opportunity to comment on this. Goodbye.

I was referred to Dr. Snapper by Dr M. Brown. So thankful for Dr. Snapper I had to wait for an appointment almost a year, but he is well worth the wait. I've had multiple fainting spells along with crazy pain and he gave me a diagnosis all long with medication to help. It's a step by step process but it is a blessing to have someone listen and understand. Thank you and may God bless you and your staff.

This appointment left me feeling like I had let Dr. Snapper down. He was short, hurried. I brought BP readings so he could see the spread range. DID NOT look at them. He listened to my heart and arteries, never mentioned how EKG went, said a few words about report I brought from VA and see you in 6 months. I had questions about things going on with me but he was so short and kept. So much for the great and wonderful Dr. Snapper.

I hope every person I talked to today will see this. When I say this is the best experience I've ever had in the medical field, it's still an understatement. Michael was thorough checking me in. Had knowledge to ask the right questions and explain what was going on. Dr. Snapper is a treasure. I wasn't coming for confirmation. I was only hoping for answers. Within 5 minutes, I was validated and so many things made sense for me. The education he has to offer is incredible. Absolutely what anyone wants in a specialist! Then, Anna came to make sure nothing was confusing, she explained when to call for advice and what would be "go to the er" protocol. Hate I forgot the name, but the sweet woman who helped schedule my ext appointment treated me like a family friend. I hope everyone involved in the higher-ups at the hospital realizes what quality providers are working here. I'm actually in a semi state of shock. This is not what is happening in most medical practices in the US. Dr. Snapper, thank you! All of you deserve a raise.

This appointment left me feeling like I had let Dr. Snapper down. He was short, hurried. I brought BP readings so he could see the spread range. DID NOT look at them. He listened to my heart and arteries, never mentioned how EKG went, said a few words about report I brought from VA and see you in 6 months. I had questions about things going on with me but he was so short and kept. So much for the great and wonderful Dr. Snapper.

I hope every person I talked to today will see this. When I say this is the best experience I've ever had in the medical field, it's still an understatement. Michael was thorough checking me in. Had knowledge to ask the right questions and explain what was going on. Dr. Snapper is a treasure. I wasn't coming for confirmation. I was only hoping for answers. Within 5 minutes, I was validated and so many things made sense for me. The education he has to offer is incredible. Absolutely what anyone wants in a specialist! Then, Anna came to make sure nothing was confusing, she explained when to call for advice and what would be "go to the er" protocol. Hate I forgot the name, but the sweet woman who helped schedule my ext appointment treated me like a family friend. I hope everyone involved in the higher-ups at the hospital realizes what quality providers are working here. I'm actually in a semi state of shock. This is not what is happening in most medical practices in the US. Dr. Snapper, thank you! All of you deserve a raise.

Anna, the nurse navigator, was so thorough and kind. She is an extremely hard worker who is very attentive to her patience and gracious during long wait times. Dr. Snapper and his team, particularly Anna, are wonderful.

All of the office staff was incredibly kind, and Dr. Snapper took the time to listen to the problems I was having and put the puzzle pieces together to diagnose MCAS, M-C-A-S, which I had never known that I have. He gave me two new medicines, and I have been doing fantastic. Thank you so much, Dr. Snapper. Thank you.

I've been to 2 other specialists with concern for my health, both of which said I was probably just experiencing anxiety. Dr. Snapper is the only one who actually listened to my concerns, with which he was able to correctly diagnose me.

I was referred to Dr. Snapper by Dr M. Brown. So thankful for Dr. Snapper I had to wait for an appointment almost a year, but he is well worth the wait. I've had multiple fainting spells along with crazy pain and he gave me a diagnosis all long with medication to help. It's a step by step process but it is a blessing to have someone listen and understand. Thank you and may God bless you and your staff.

Yes, I've been with Dr. Snapper for probably 50 years, 40 years anyway. He's always been very good at recognizing my problems and solving them for me. Right now, I'm in pretty good shape. He tells me I'm in excellent condition for everything that's going, for heart problems. Anyway, I think he's one of the best doctors around. The staff is always good there at his office for WellSTAR. Thank you very much for the opportunity to comment on this. Goodbye.

Mainly just want to say thank you for the whole team. It's great to be able to go to a place where they actually listen to what my daughter has to say about her health and she's not getting looked at as a kid or someone who's over-exaggerating, but someone who actually believes and listen to what she has to say about how she's feeling and what's going on. Thank you.

It was not a good experience at all. The assistance wasn't that friendly at all. Also I had to wait in the medical room for about forty five minutes before the doctor came in. This physician has changed my BP medication about four times and he still hasn't gotten it right.

Dr Snapper is very knowledgeable and truly cares. Wellstar definitely needs to offer more providers that specialize in autonomics, Ehler's Danlos syndrome. Mayo and other facilities across the country have various specialist and teams that specialize. Unfortunately we do not have that in our area.

I was incredibly pleased with my experience with Dr. Snapper. He was able to provide some answers that I've been looking for for a long time and it was incredibly validating and a huge relief to me to know finally what was going on. He listened carefully and took time to really understand what was going on. He's incredibly knowledgeable and I feel very blessed and grateful that I was able to get in to see him understand why he's booked out as far as he is.

The first time I visited this office I was completely satisfied. The doctor spent a good amount of time asking questions and explaining about my condition. This time, he seemed rushed and dismissed my concerns.

Dr. Snapper and his staff are amazing. His MA, Michael, was wonderful. She is professional, knowledgeable and caring. I cannot find words to express how great Dr. Snapper is. He takes the time to educate the patient and also to ensure that the patient understands what is happening in their body. It was a struggle to wait 11 months for an appointment but it was well worth the wait. It was a relief to finally have a doctor and staff that completely understood what I was experiencing and knew the exactly what to do to put me on a better path.

Wellstar Autonomic Center Expands Care for Autonomic Disorders
For people with autonomic disorders, finding treatment can be difficult. With only a few specialized programs in the country, getting care can require traveling a long distance.
However, patients in Georgia can access this crucial care close to home. Wellstar Cardiovascular Disease Specialist Dr. Howard Snapper, who sees patients in Woodstock, is one of fewer than 50 physicians in North America certified to diagnose and treat autonomic disorders.
Autonomic disorders, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), involve the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary body functions like heart rate, temperature, sweating and digestion.
When people with POTS move from sitting down to standing up, their heart rate increases by about 30 beats per minute, but their blood pressure doesn’t change. This sudden increase can lead to dizziness or fainting. Most patients with POTS are younger women about 13 to 50 years old.
“Autonomic disorders are not that rare—about 2 to 3 million people in the country are affected—but they are often underdiagnosed because the symptoms can indicate other conditions,” Dr. Snapper said. “It can also be difficult to get the proper diagnosis and treatment to start improving these conditions.”
Dr. Snapper sees patients from as far as California, and Wellstar has one of only two autonomic disorder programs in the Southeast. With the addition of two new advanced practice providers, the program at Wellstar now has increased capacity and can help more patients live healthier and more comfortably.
To schedule an appointment with Dr. Snapper, call (678) 324-4400.
