Kansas City Heart Foundation

Dr Craig Lundgren has been an absolutely fantastic cardiologist. He saved my fathers life and has always been so attentive to both my parents as they muddle through the mess of a much less than perfect heart. Our family feels incredibly lucky he was on call that day. Not that anyone wants to ever have a cardiologist, but if you do Dr. Craig Lundgren is your guy. more

I did not get to choose my cardiologist while in the ER waiting to go to the Cath Lab but when Dr Lundgren came I felt relief simply by his bed side manner. That was 2 years ago now and I still choose him to be my doctor. The office staff know me and are friendly to everyone. The nurses are kind and treat me like a friend more than a patient. There are two Dr in the practice that are a lacking the same touchie - feelie as everyone else but by in large a great group. They collaborate well and brought their combined knowledge to diagnosis my usual heart problem. Mostly I feel listened to when I go there and that is a huge relief. Dr Lundgren listened while I was going through the shock of the heart attacks and he still listens when I am in the office. His nurse calls back when I leave a message and is attentive. No one wants to have a cardiologist but if you have to try Dr. Craig Lundgren. Pros: Dr. Lundgren is a great as well at the office staff. Cons: few of the Dr in the practice are not super people-oriented. more

From information received from their scheduling desk - they seem to have some sort of problem either with having enough personnel to do the testing or the quality of their equipment seems to be questionable. There are questions which remain unanswered after a year with this group. Consequently, I am returning to a group which I have utilized in the past. Cons: After open heart surgery, I was ""forced"" to utilize this grp more
