It's a pleasure having care and follow up, and not worrying about my heart condition with Afib
Swedish Patient
I am very pleased with the treatment and care from my specialist at Cherry Hill Swedish. Since my heart problems started they all took care of me and got me back on my feet to live a fairly normal life in no time at all. I can't thank the staff for putting me back in the mainstream of life.
