Patient Reviews
Apr 14, 2017
I would highly recommend Dr. Chris Higgins. He's very, very knowledgeable, thorough, skilled, kind and just an excellent physician all the way around. I was truly blessed to have him as my Cardiologist these past 2 years. Also, his office covers every need of the heart patient. You don't have to run around to different facilities to have the various visits or procedures. That just makes it so much less stressful.
