Dr. Rodriguez is very young and not enough years of experience. Very nice, but a little feisty. And not very patient with my comments. He did not even listen to my heart, just relied on the EKG. Not happy with his solution to just adjust my Pacemaker. I am still very short of breath and nothing has changed as a result of the short visit to the Weston Clinic.
