Dr. Mikhail Kapchits

I suffered from a heart attack a little over 2 years ago, and since that time I’ve been a patient of Dr. Kapchits, and he has changed my life. He pointed out a on of health and lifestyle choices that I was making that was contributing to my heart disease, cleaning up my diet, helping me quit smoking, and just living a lot healthier. Since that time I’ve lost over 25 pounds, and feel the best I have in my adult life! I was referred to Dr. Kapchits and Advanced Cardiology earlier in the year, as heart disease runs rampant in my family history. Dr. K is the most caring medical professional I’ve ever been treated by. He seems to genuinely care about my health and wants me to be healthier. He’s very down to Earth, and every appointment seems like catching up with a close friend. It really makes going to the doctor a lot better. Advanced medical is one of the best cardiology practices in the city. And for being such a huge practice with multiple doctors, and tons of staff – its really refreshing to see how personal they are with their care. They truly are here for you and your improvement. The front desk staff always remembers my name, and theres never really a lot of people waiting. They take their time with patients but still manage to get people out of there quick, I even schedule appointments during my lunch break! My husband has been a patient at Advanced Cardiology for 5 years, and recently I was referred to a physical therapist there as well! We both work crazy hours and its really convenient having all of our medical care under one roof, and with their office located within a 3 minute walk from our home, its that much better! The facility is very nice, and well kept. All the staff is really helpful, and so sweet! Highly recommended!! Advanced Medical Care is the best! My mother recently moved back to the US, and she unfortunately only speaks Russian. Luckily Dr. Kapchits, and most of the staff are fluent. It was such a struggle when she originally moved here to find a cardiologist she could even communicate with, and I simply work too much to take her to all of her appointments. It really puts me at ease, a trip to the doctor gets her out of the house, lets her socialize with others wh speak Russian and she’s in hands that I know I can trust! I have a history of heart disease on both my mother’s and father’s sides of the family so growing up I took every precaution I could, eating healthy, exercising, and more. But sadly I still ended up with terrible cholesterol issues, and plaque build up. Thankfully thats when I was introduced to Advanced Medical Care – the staff and doctors are amazing here. I’ve never gotten so much attention from a doctor than I have from Dr. Kapchits, and for such a huge practice its truly a testament to the level of patient care. Dr. Kapchits has been my cardiologist for the better part of the last 5 years, and he really is the best in my experience. A complete professional, he has performed countless tests from EKG’s and echo’s, to stress tests, and more – if something seems to trouble him he doesn’t ignore it and you can tell he takes the health of his patients very seriously. I never met a doctor who was as caring, and hands on with his care. Thank you Dr. Kapchits. I am currently 6 years removed from a massive stroke that really set me back. Being in my late 60’s my family didn’t expect that I would be able to recover and just hoped that I could regain some speech. Thankfully with the help of Dr. Neystat and Advanced Medical I’m doing a whole lot better. I had to have a stent put in as well as a pacemaker but I am proud to say my cholesterol is the lowest its been in years, I’m still active, and I’m truly able to enjoy my life. From the point I was when I began care here to present day, its a complete change – my family and I owe them the world. The first time I came to Advanced Medical it was because I needed a physical for my new job, and I have been a patient ever since. Over the coarse of 10+ years they have handled pretty much ALL my care or referred me here and there. From when I needed physical therapy during recovery from ligament surgery in my knee, to neurology care when I struggled with sleep issues, and cardiology as I’ve gotten older. Its especially convenient for me as I live in Brooklyn and commute to Queens everyday for work, and they have got offices located fairly close to me. The doctor’s are amazing, the staff is really helpful and organized, and the offices are both really large and professional, theres so many rooms theres never really a wait. I suffer from Hypertension and over the years my blood pressure has really gotten bad. I have collapsed, and at times just blown my fuse and thought I was having a heart attack! My lifestyle was very stressful, and I had an awful temper. Thanks to Dr. K and his staff I’m finally doing a lot better. He did a stress test, and just got an understanding of what my health was like. Afterwards he prescribed me meds to lower my blood pressure and they really help. The best part is that he truly seemed to care, and told me it was important that I make some lifestyle changes. Put me on a diet, and workout regimen, he even referred me to a doctor who could help me with my anger issues – a huge trigger for my blood pressure. Advanced medical is by far the best practice in BK.

Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP/ECP) Treatment

EECP/ECP (Enhanced External Counterpulsation) is a new, Medicare-approved, noninvasive, outpatient treatment for angina and coronary artery disease. When applied over a course of time, EECP/ECP reduces angina frequency, improves a person’s exercise capacity, and may even result in reduced need for medications. EECP is not a replacement for bypass surgery or angioplasty, but it is an alternative treatment for those patients who can no longer benefit from additional surgery or angioplasty, and for whom medical therapy has already been maximized.

Nearly everyone with coronary artery disease, angina, or congestive heart failure can benefit from EECP/ECP. It is particularly well-suited for people who:

Have already had angioplasty, stents, or bypass surgery, but their heart disease symptoms have returned or persisted
Are not candidates for surgery due to other medical conditions
Do not want to undergo surgery
Are diabetic
Have small vessels (often women)
Rely on medications or curtail their activities to avoid angina and other heart disease symptoms
