The office staff tells you to arrive 15 mins early prior to appointment. I arrived and only 3 people were waiting. More people arrived after me. The nurse would call the patients name and the dr they were seeing. Well they called people who arrived after me. A nurse called me to the back saying oh they were double booked today but still you shouldn't call people after me.

Dr. Koosh was very friendly and knowledgeable, and I have no doubt he would provide appropriate care. But, he seems overwhelmed and rushed through my visit, speaking quickly and giving very short answers. On top of that, I showed up 15 minutes early, as requested by Wellstar, but wasn't seen until an hour after my appointment time. If Dr. Koosh is that busy, he needs to get some assistance. The front desk staff needs some training in customer service as well. They weren't unfriendly, but they could barely be bothered to make eye contact, or show any interest in my health or presence.

I will say Dr. Kooshkabadi, or how you say his name, was very good, very thorough. Very, as soon as I had a question, boom, he had answered before I could even get done asking it. He was very, very well, he was probably, if I had to guess in his medical class, he was probably tops in his class. He's very good. I definitely would recommend him if my mom and dad were alive. I would recommend him to my mom and dad. I mean, that's how much I trust him. He's very good, very thorough, and it was a pleasant experience, and I would recommend him to anybody.

Dr. Mohammad Khuskabadi is without any question the finest medical provider, doctor, cardiologist that I've ever had in my life. And I'm 81 years old and I've seen different doctor networks, etc., across the entire United States. There is no one, and I mean no one, as good and as thorough in every respect as Dr. Kooshkabadi.

Experience was fine Doctor very knowledgeable and was very comfortable. My experience with the hospital and actual procedure was terrible not by the doctors but by some of the staff. I should not have been in the hospital for six days to have a pacemaker put in I will be disputing that with my insurance company when I get the bill. Will be eventually transferring to a Northside cardiologist. I should not have sent in North Fulton Hospital for days without nothing being done. I should've been transferred out for the simple procedure or a doctor transferred in. But as far as my follow up at the cardiologist office it went well

I had an appointment for 3:15 last Friday afternoon. I was called by the office around 12:30 or 1 asking if I could come early. I changed my plans in order to do so and then was kept waiting almost an hour before I was seen. I ultimately was seen at my original 3:15 appointment time. I felt like this was very inconsiderate of me as an individual. It certainly would not have been tolerable if I'd have kept the doctor waiting an hour. I think it's important for the doctor and his schedulers to keep an accurate track of how much wait time patients have. What happened to me last Friday was an outrage. The treatment and the time with the doctor was fine, but I changed my plans to accommodate what I thought was his schedule and was kept waiting with no explanation.

The office staff tells you to arrive 15 mins early prior to appointment. I arrived and only 3 people were waiting. More people arrived after me. The nurse would call the patients name and the dr they were seeing. Well they called people who arrived after me. A nurse called me to the back saying oh they were double booked today but still you shouldn't call people after me.

Wellstar Treats Atrial Fibrillation with Comprehensive, Tailored Care
Atrial fibrillation, also called AFib, occurs when the upper chambers of the heart—known as atria—beat irregularly and fail to pump blood efficiently to the rest of the body. It’s the most common heart arrhythmia, and at Wellstar, you’ll find comprehensive care and multiple treatment options for this condition.
What is AFib?
The heart in AFib often responds by beating too fast, with potentially dangerous results. A normal heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute, but a heart in AFib beats 100 to 175 times per minute. Though the heart is working hard, it is inefficiently pumping blood through the body and may restrict oxygen delivery.
The poor pumping function may also leave blood to collect in the atria, where clots can form. If a clot is pumped through the heart and into the body, it could reach the brain and cause a stroke. The risk of experiencing a stroke is about four to five times higher if someone has AFib, according to the American Heart Association.
Symptoms of AFib include:
Rapid or irregular heartbeat or pulse
Skipped heartbeats
Chest palpitations
Lightheadedness or fainting
Confusion
Extreme fatigue
Shortness of breath
Chest pain
If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical care right away.
How is AFib treated?
“If you are diagnosed with AFib, your Wellstar cardiologist will tailor your treatment plan, considering the condition of your heart and any other medical conditions you may have,” said Wellstar Cardiac Electrophysiologist Dr. Mohammad Kooshkabadi. “Their goals will be to reset your heart rhythm, prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of your AFib returning.”
Treatment options for AFib include:
Lifestyle changes
Medications, including blood thinners
Nonsurgical or catheter ablations
Implantable heart devices, such as a pacemaker
Surgical ablations (open heart surgery or minimally invasive surgery)
