I remain very grateful to Capital Cardiology and Dr. Seedhom. From testing to office visits or calling the nurses with a question they are always there for me. After the tests and bloodwork Dr. Seedhom goes over all results with me very patiently and he listens to my concerns and we set things up, medications, testing and visits accordingly. Also the patient portal is easy to use and results are always posted quickly. I highly recommend both Capital Cardiology and Dr. Seedhom in particular he has really helped me get my heart conditions under control.

Dr. Seedhom was attentive, explained everything thoroughly, answered my questions, was kind and courteous. He took the time to actually review and comment on lab results I brought from the most recent checkup with my primary care doctor. I had a post question and the doctor said to just call, but before I left they said someone would call, and sure enough someone called promptly the next morning.

I've given reviews previously, so I won't be long here: Dr Seedhom is an excellent doctor. He explains things. He's empathetic and kind. I can't rate him high enough. There's going to be a chapter in one of my books (one about the medical system specifically) as a great example

I have had the pleasure of finding Dr. Seedhom because he is a client of mine. I scheduled an appointment with him due to some chest discomfort that I am not sure is due to acid reflux or something else. Dr. Seedhom took his time to explain to me everything that I should know, how the structure of the heart is, what my vitals are showing, etc. Dr. Seedhom scheduled me for some precautionary test and a follow up appointment. He takes his time, is kind, and explains everything without being rushed. Highly recommend.

I just met Dr. Seedhom today. He is I think, one of the top 3 doctors I've ever met in my medically exhausting nearly 50 years on this big blue ball. Life is stressful. Having a doctor who is both intelligent and *kind* is a big gift. I hope he has a long and joyful life. I come away wanting to ask blessings upon him.

Dr Seedhom is awesome! Met with him today about a recent hospital stay. My heart was ok but since he and my other doctors are all with the St Peter’s system, I mentioned that a recent cat scan ordered by my gastroenterologist revealed kidney cysts. He read and explained my cat scan with me pointing out the details. Even though he’s not a urologist, he spent the time answering my questions. And that’s why he is so great!!! Patience, thoroughness, personable, extremely professional. And that’s why I am so glad that he’s my doctor. Love the guy!
