I found the doctor condescending and perfunctory. He advised me to take blood thinners because every 5 years over 60 my risk for stroke doubled. I found no support for this. New cardiologist at UC DAVIS said I did not need blood thinners and explained my condition after doing 4 tests Ericson was always in a rush and treated me like a child even though I managed a 3 billion plus company. He had his mind made up without thorough testing and put me at risk as a result.

Today was my first vist with Dr. Erickson, my Wife Nita and I met with Doctor Erickson and are so impressed with him. We just returned to Sacramento after living in Palm Desert for the last 30+ years and being cared for by Doctor Gonzales MD also a very good Cardiologist. Doctor Gonzales cared for my wife and myself all of those years. We are so impressed with Doctor Erickson such a wonderful person and Doctor he is taking such good care of both my wife Nita and myself.

Always exceptional care. I needed a new cardiologist and polled numerous area physicians who all recommended Dr. Ericson. He's provided thorough, research based, excellent care to me for several years. I've subsequently recommended 1/2 dozen others see him and they'll had similar experiences as well. I can't speak highly enough about him and his staff.

Doc had a nice friendly manner. However in decades I have never had such a perfunctory exam. He touched for no more than second or two spots on my chest and back with stethoscope and for same 1 second or so, my ankle through the thickness of my sock he failed to lower. I thought that's the way we used to play doctor as kids. No way to get readings. Mini EKG just before exam was negative, but I thought it would be as was feeling fine.
