Dr. John Brian Garner, MD

He performed a difficult cardiac ablation on me and took excellent care after the surgery. Answered all my families questions and followed up after the surgery to check for any complications. Would highly recommend.

The best heart Dr in Springfield and surrounding area...took care of my AFib and was able to get me in with one of top surgeons in country for my hocm..he will tell you exactly what's going on and how he will take care of it.. he is very professional and takes your illness and condition and makes it his problem to take care of,. He is the best.. thank you!!!!!!!!

Professional, caring, concerned. I knew he was able and capable of helping me with this situation that was messing my life up entirely. I could tell he had the skill and compassion to help me.

This doctor is arrogant! My husband had a test result in his file for over a year of severe sleep apnea and this doctor missed it. Instead of reading the file when my husband had an appointment(s) he breezed in and out not having a file in hand or looking it up electronically! Instead he gave us a pamphlet to read that he wrote. Inside the pamphlet was how sleep apnea is a big contributing factor to my husband's condition. Good grief if the doctor doesn't have time to read the results of tests then what good is he.

I could not be more satisfied with a doctor! Dr Garner has taken his time, expert skill and care to make my life much better! I highly recommend him!

John Garner the most amazingly awesome dr. Thank you for a whole new life. My family thanks you. Scott B

Always honest straightforward and skillful. Best Dr. I have seen.

He was excellent. Got us right in when no one else would review the chart. He saved my sons life.

Dr. John Garner is a rare and special physician, who can assess your problem with great insight, explain a course of action in real clear and honest terms, and will honestly tell you what you need, or what you can wait to do. Really cares about each patient and spends as long as it takes to make sure you understand everything. We highly recommend him and feel complete confidence in him. And he's just a wonderful person!

I saw Dr. Garner for frequent chest pains I had been experiencing for few weeks. I was extremely impressed with the level of care, concern I received.He is very professional, thorough, knowledgable and a great doctor and took great care of me. I highly recommend him.

Great doctor, Extremely thorough. He makes sure he crosses his T's and dot his I's before jumping into surgery. He even sent me up to UF in Gainesville, for a 2nd opinion prior to a big surgery. He never rushes you out either. He takes as much time as needed with each patient. Although I do have to say, his bedside manner could use a little tweaking . Otherwise, I'd highly recommend Dr. Garner to anyone.

Need an intelligent, competent, caring cardiologist? Dr. Garner is for you!

I was very comfortable with with him. He went out of his way to help me.

I'm not the easiest patient, but this is the first time someone's really explained by diagnosis in a way that I understood. He spends a lot of time with you when it's needed but he does run a bit behind sometimes.

Dr. Garner is maybe the only doctor I've been to who really took the time to explain what was wrong with me instead of just pushing another procedure on me. When we did finally do the operation, everything went great. Thanks, Doc!

Dr. Garner cured my Afib! I love him for that!

I am not Dr. Garner's patient. Instead, I worked with him as a chaplain while he was doing his training. My comment is this: Through hours and hours of discussions, lots of laughs and a few tears together, he demonstrated concern for the whole person. I saw him doing hands on care every day, tired or not. I read his patient notes. I saw him sit at the bedside. I have seen him advocate publicly for the needs of patients in research and in practice. I am proud to recommend him.

My husband and I were sent to Dr Garner due to constant and persistent A-fib as well as a heart beat around 150.Previously,he had medication treatment multiple cardioversions. which ultimately were all unsuccessful. Dr Garner performed an ablation which restored sinus rhythm. His knowledge and skill are number one , His care and bedside manner are excellent . I would recommend him to everyone!!!!

Dr. Garner is extremely thorough and took his time explaining everything to me. I never once felt like he was rushing. Great bedside manner!

Dr. Garner took care of my family member in the hospital. I was quite impressed with his combination of knowledge and bedside manner. We all felt very comfortable with him. He will be graduating from his cardiovascular fellowship soon, and we certainly look forward to becoming one of his office patients.
