Dr. Paul Douglass and his staff, they were very professional, knowledgeable, patient, helpful. They are good listeners. Dr. Douglas brings a lot of expertise. He shows concern for my well-being and has read up on my chart and everything, so he's knowledgeable about my health, not just my heart, but he looked at all my information. So surely I would recommend Dr. Douglass to anyone I know, and I've been going to him for a year, years, and I drive over an hour to get to my appointment. That shows I really want to go to an appointment with him because I could certainly, I know I certainly passed a whole lot of cardiologists on my way, but he's a great doctor. Thank you very much.

Yes, the front office agent, her name is our front office person, I think her name was Tish. She was amazing. I absolutely felt so warm and welcomed by the front office staff. Tish is the one that initially checked me in. And with Dr. Paul, I've had him before. So happy that I'm able to come back to him because I do trust and respect his judgment in my heart health care. Thank you. Thank you, Dr. Paul Douglas.

After working in construction for more than 20 years, Brett Faucett knows all about the right building blocks. Piece by piece, a building comes together, but if one brick falls out of line, the whole system can crumble.
That’s why Brett knew something was wrong when the numbness started in his left arm. It came and went several times before he ended up behind the wheel of his car.
Sitting at an intersection, Brett was at a crossroads. He could turn right, attend his out-of-town business meeting, and ignore the sinking feeling inside. Or he could turn left and drive straight to the Emergency Department at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital.
“It’s really hard when you plan on going to work and you know people are counting on you. It’s hard to make that left turn and listen to your body.”
Brett took a deep breath and turned the wheel toward the hospital, forever changing the course of his life.
