I have dealt with heart failure for over ten years and Dr Montis is by far the best I ever had! I moved to Ohio for the Cleveland Clinic not knowing what to expect and very afraid. One of my first experiences was with Dr Montis and I immediately requested her on my team. It has been the blessing I needed. They gave me my life back
Reviewed on Oct 29, 2020
The doctor ordered three or four different things that the scheduling person was supposed to do. When I got to the scheduling desk she was confused, disoriented, and distracted by other things and did not give me any clear direction. So I had to wander to the places that Dr Mountis wanted me to go.
