I’ve been a patient of Dr.Passi for many years. He’s very professional knowledgeable and he engages with me and teaches me. I understand the things that he say he looks out for my best interest. He listens to the things that I say, he knows that I’m knowledgeable about my body and experiences that have with medications.I respect him for that because he listened very closely to what I have to say. he also knows as a practitioner that I am afraid of taking medication’s because I’ve had bad experiences with certain medication’s prescribed by another doctor so it’s hard for me to take any medication and he understands that. He works with me to improve my health with diet and exercise.

Hi, I just want to say that the provider is very knowledgeable. He's very helpful. He'll go through everything with you and explain if you don't understand something. And I really do like the provider. He knows what he's talking about. The only thing I'm a little unhappy about is the staff at times. They tend not to get back to you when you phone the office or It's hard for you to get a hold of them sometimes. Other than that, everything else is okay.

Dr. Passi is an excellent doctor. He needs to do better or the manager needs to do better at hiring people because they are making his office worse. They can't get my prescriptions out on time and I'm constantly calling.
7/28/2025

7/24/2025
Excellent knowledge of cardiac care and treatment.
7/19/2025
I would like to say that everything look, you know, it was okay. He explained to me everything and that's it. Okay. So I recommend it to anybody. That's the path.
7/18/2025
I have already sent him multiple patients and continue to do it because Dr. Passi is the best, most caring, kind and highly competent cardiologist in the entire New Jersey.

5/28/2025
With the notes that was placed in my gut by the assistant, none of that was told to me. And I really don't appreciate that because I do have to pay a copay and I wasn't there long.
5/28/2025
