What to bring

Coming in for the first time.

Most first visits run 45–60 minutes - history, exam, and in-office testing the same day when indicated.

  • Insurance card and a photo ID
  • A list of all current medications - dose and frequency
  • Prior imaging - CDs of prior echos, CTs, MRIs, or ultrasounds plus reports
  • A short symptom timeline - when symptoms started, what makes them better or worse
  • Your referring physician's contact info, if you were referred
  • Completed new-patient forms from above

Please don't email medical details. For anything clinical, call 305-279-2621 - that's the secure path.

Test prep

How to prepare for in-office tests.

Your provider will give specific instructions when your test is scheduled - those override anything here.

Echocardiogram

No special prep. Loose-fitting clothing. Eat and take medications normally. About 45 minutes.

Stress test (treadmill)

Comfortable clothes, athletic shoes. No caffeine 12 hours before. No food 2 hours prior. Ask about holding heart-rate or BP medications.

Vascular ultrasound

No prep for leg or carotid studies. Abdominal aortic: nothing to eat or drink for 8 hours. Two-piece clothing.

Holter / event monitor

Shower before - you can't get it wet afterward. Avoid heavy lotions on the chest. 30 minutes for placement.

Procedural visit

Detailed prep is provided 1 week before. General: arrange a ride home, no food after midnight, morning meds with a sip of water unless told otherwise.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need a referral to schedule?

Most patients don't need a referral. Some Medicare Advantage and HMO plans require one - check with your insurance. If you need a referral, your primary care office can send it directly to us.

Do you accept Medicare?

Yes. We accept Medicare Part B and most Medicare Advantage plans. We're in-network with the major Florida MA plans.

How soon can I be seen?

Most new patients are seen within a week. Urgent or limb-threatening symptoms get same-week or same-day appointments - call and tell the team it's urgent.

Can I email Dr. Chainani about my symptoms or test results?

No - email isn't a secure channel for medical information. For anything clinical, call 305-279-2621. The front desk routes urgent questions directly to the team.

Do you offer telehealth visits?

Yes, for follow-up visits and medication management when appropriate. New patient consults and any visit involving an exam or in-office testing are in-person. Ask if telehealth is an option for your specific visit.

What if I can't make my appointment?

Call us at least 24 hours in advance. We'll find another time. No-show fees apply only after repeated missed visits without notice.

Where are your offices?

4 locations across Miami-Dade. See the Locations page for addresses, parking notes, and which services are available at each.

What languages do you speak?

English, Spanish, and several other languages spoken across our staff. Interpreter services available on request - mention at booking.
