    I had a very bad experience with this doctor: he is arrogant and take no time for you, have no empathy. He never told me what he found on the tests he ordered, explained me nothing about was going on, and was reluctant to give me a copy of the reports. With him, you have to obey without questioning or willing to understand what’s going on with your heart. Experience at Queens quay cardiology

    We had two appointments with Dr. Asim Cheema and waited for over 1.5 hrs even with the appointment. The doctor was 50 minutes late for the work and had all patients lined up waiting in the waiting room. Hope the doctor to be punctual. Not pleasant experience.
