Dr. Joseph R Califano

Was in cardiac arrest Dr. Calfaino was on call came in did the catheterization. I didn’t have any blockages. It was determined I had a clot that dissolves in his patient since very curious about your care. Excellent talk to highly recommend.

Dr. Califano is a fabulous Cardiologist. He is intelligent, experienced and dedicated to his practice. He saved my husband’s life after he had a heart attack and almost died. Dr. Califano was called in at 4 am and performed emergency surgery, implanting 3 stints. While my husband was in the hospital for 15 days because there were lcomplications, Dr. Califano came to see him every day. I cannot say enough to compliment this caring, committed, true professional. He is a wonderful doctor who was a tremendous help in making sure my husband had an excellent recovery!

My husband had a heart attack and was admitted to Physician’s Regional Hospital. Dr. Califano was called in at 4 am. He performed emergency surgery implanting 3 stints in my husband. My husband had lots of complications so he was in the hospital for 2 weeks and Dr. Califano checked on him daily…..sometimes twice daily., He is a true professional who is dedicated to his patients and his practice. I am so grateful that he took such great care of my husband insuring that he had a positive recovery!

Dr. Califano is a good Cardiologist & I recommend him. BUT I think he needs to find new help in his office. I am not sure they know how to answer the phone every time I have called you get a voicemail that the person is helping someone else. Funny when you go there the girls up front are chit chatting away. Also Cheryl his nurse is very rude and not willing to help out if need it. She actually hung up on me the other day and would not give me any straight answers to my questions. She also told me that the Dr. Does not have time to talk to insurance to help a patient get authorization to get a procedure done. Which is what needed to be done to help out the situation. I will ask him about that IF we go back. I will most likely be finding my husband a different Cardiologist. One that has a good reputation and a respectful staff. I see there are others on here that will agree with me about his (Help) Dr. Califano is a good Cardiologist & I recommend him. BUT I think he needs to find new help in his office.

Been trying to get an answer from his office for 2 months on a referral for my doctor in the same group. Totally unresponsive. Maria in this office is less than helpful. Apparently, you need to have a heart attack to get get them to call you back

Took time to answer questions and gave explanations where needed. Does use lots of medical terms, but will explain when asked. Good experience.

Dr. Califano is without a doubt the best in Naples. Both my husband and I were with him for several years before we had to relocate. I am now back in Naples and plan to continue my cardiology health with him. Highly recommended ???????????? Thanks Dr.Joe!

My husband was seen by Dr. Califano today and we were impressed by his knowledge and he is very thorough. Would never hesitate to recommend him to others.

Met the man for less then 5 mons. He never even read my chart. Im allergic to nuclear stress test and he almost forced me to have one..I fired him before he even touched me....I put a compliment on him then about 6 months later I get a bill from him for over $600 when he could have easily killed me....

Waited 1 1/2 hr in room. New to community because of the heart issues. The doctor who referred me had not sent any information to this doctor yet his office called & scheduled me an appt in 2 days. No information? Why would they schedule me to come to a hospital? The governor has told if over 65 we needed to stay in our home. I had no mask. Virus in hospital scared me and everyone else who had to be there. It was a complete waste for me to be there. I had a BIG concern & this doctor was not helpful at all. BIG WASTE OF TIME & I FEEL I PUT MYSELF IN HARMS WAY. I asked a few questions as heart failure IS new to me and RECEIVED no answer. I WISH I COULD FIND A GOOD INTERNIST TO HELP ME AND MY HUSBAND. I was really angry when I left. Almost a 2 hour wait at 8:30 appt is not right. I’m Scheduled to go back in 3 weeks so trying to get a information of this man. I need to know if he is a good doctor. NOT good 1st impression. I’ll update if I go back. Would not recommend at this time

Competent. Patient and Kind. Removed my fears and set me on a path to live my life properly . Can't say enough about him, his staff and Physicians Regional. God Bless.

Very inquisitive about how you feel. I recommend Dr Califano 100% Francisco P. Rodríguez

Great Dr. And total experience. Thank you.

He is amazing. He explained everything and has a good bedside manner. Im 38 years old and had severe chest pain on Oct 14. I went to Physicians Regional on Pine Ridge. Dr. Califano found 4 blockages and saved my life. I highly recommend him if you are having cardiac issues. "Real heros don't wear capes"

Dr. Califano is simply fabulous. I have been his patient since he started his practice in Naples. Of my 18 stents and he put in all except 4. I would not be here today without his exceptional care.

I was taken by ambulance to Physicians regional medical center Pine ridge . In the emergency room I was told I needed a stint . I meet Dr Califano who verbally walked me through the procedure.The doctor was very reassuring, knowledge and pleasant under a stressful time for me . Then I was taken to the catheterization laboratory for the procedure . Dr Califano saved my life as I was in Cardiac arrest.I’ve never met a finer physician . I’m blessed I meet Dr Califano.

Dr. Califano is excellent. Have had 2 cardiac procedures resulting in placement of 3 stents. Just a really fine, knowledgeable physician who provides wonderful expertise in his field.

Dr. Califano took me for an almost emergency catherazation, with one artery 100% blocked and another 80%. He discovered the 100% one to have a malformation similar to an S curve. He spent four and one-half hrs. inventing ways to clean it out and put multiple small stents to get around the curves, thus sparing me by-pass surgery. I doubt if there is another Dr. anywhere who would not have refused to try that hard, and sent me for the much more invasive solution. My gratitude is enormous.
