How it works
Schedule your appointment
Select the care you need and pick a convenient time. Send any information you would like reviewed beforehand — prior diagnostic testing or labs.
Meet your cardiologist
Connect virtually with an expert cardiologist for a guideline-based visit. We diagnose your cardiac issues, order tests at a local lab or imaging center near you, and prescribe the medications you need.
Continue your care journey
Follow-up visits review your test results, update your medications, and order more tests as needed. A visit note goes to your PCP so your primary care stays in the loop.
What we treat
A board-certified cardiologist can evaluate and manage a full range of heart and vascular conditions by video.
Need testing close to home? When we order labs or imaging, the test gets done at a facility near you. Recent orders include BayCare Outpatient Imaging (FL), Mass General Nuclear Cardiology Lab (MA), RAYUS Radiology (WA), Sutter Medical Group Cardiology (CA), and many more across the country.

Modern cholesterol therapies — not just statins
Looking for a cardiologist who will work with you on alternatives to statins, or prescribe the latest non-statin therapies? Our cardiologists prescribe the full modern lipid-management toolkit — from first-line statins to PCSK9 inhibitors, bempedoic acid, ezetimibe, and the newest combination options.
Read our take on the 2026 cholesterol guidelines — covering Lp(a), ApoB, statin alternatives, and when each therapy makes sense.
Tests we order & interpret
We can order the cardiac tests you need — and review the results you already have. The test gets done at a local imaging center or lab; results come back for review and discussion at a follow-up video visit. Skip the multi-month wait for an in-person cardiologist appointment just to get an order written.
Where do tests get done? A lab or imaging center close to your home. We've ordered cardiac testing at facilities across the country, including BayCare Outpatient Imaging (FL), Mass General Nuclear Cardiology Lab (MA), RAYUS Radiology (WA), Sutter Medical Group Cardiology (CA), and many more.

What patients say
Dr. Deo has been an absolute godsend for me. I've been dealing with a really tough cluster of symptoms (POTS, flushing, adrenaline surges, migraines, and more) that left me nearly homebound. I also have a complex family history of sudden cardiac arrest. Finding a local cardiologist who could see me (and could handle my complex case) was basically impossible and most were booked out nearly a year. The thought of going in person was overwhelming with my anxiety. Dr. Deo does everything a normal in-office cardiologist can do. He orders tests, reviews results, prescribes medications, and manages care, but because it's all virtual, he's been able to see me much more often and respond faster than I could have ever gotten with local doctors. His office manager, Jacqueline, is amazing — she's very receptive and thorough, which made the whole process feel supportive from the start. Dr. Deo himself took the time to really listen and dig into my full history. He ordered the right tests (including the Zio patch) and was genuinely open to thinking creatively about medications that could actually help my specific symptoms instead of just giving me the standard answers. Look up his educational/experience background! Impressive. He's clearly very knowledgeable across several areas but explained things in a way that made sense. I've already started feeling a bit more hopeful and supported. I've even been recommending him on TikTok to other women going through similar issues because finding a doctor (and team) who actually gets the full picture, works with you virtually, and can see you more frequently is rare. If you're struggling with complex autonomic or cardiac symptoms and need someone who will truly listen, I can't recommend Dr. Deo enough.
Highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs a cardiologist, especially in states where access is limited. I have nothing but good things to say about them. Highly responsive to questions and easy to talk to during tele visits. So much better than being on waitlists for in-person visits with mediocre care.
I had an amazing experience at my first virtual visit with Dr. Deo. The Dr. listened to my concerns and was very personable and professional. Testing was ordered immediately. I feel like I am in great hands with him.
Outstanding experience with Dr. Rahul Deo. He is an exceptional communicator who thoughtfully reviewed the results of my labs/scans in great detail, breaking down complex cardiac markers into clear, practical explanations. It is rare to find a cardiology specialist who is this accessible, responsive, and genuinely invested in preventive health. This direct virtual care model is highly efficient, stress-free without taking away the quality of care. Highly recommend!

I'm so glad I scheduled a second opinion with Dr. Deo. He reviewed all of my relevant medical data ahead of our appointment and gave clear explanations for my results. He was much more informative than my original doctor and understood what I was hoping to get out of our appointment. An empathetic listener, he recognized that I was feeling anxious and needed reassurance in addition to detailed explanation of my palpitations and what the next steps should be.
Dr Deo was great. He was friendly, very detail oriented, data driven and I had the overall feeling that I was in very good hands.
Dr Deo was very patient with me. He answered all my questions, provided excellent information regarding my upcoming procedure, and advised me regarding healthier alternatives post procedure. It was an excellent appointment and very convenient!
Outstanding virtual visit. The doctor was attentive, knowledgeable, and actually took the time to listen. Smooth process from start to finish, couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!
Dr Rahul Deo is an amazing, knowledgeable and superbly caring doctor. He took a holistic approach to my situation and even gave me very good, actionable tips on how to manage life as a busy graduate student. Overall I felt very seen and that my concerns were thoroughly addressed. I highly, highly recommend this doctor to anyone considering seeing him!
Had a pretty good experience at the Docs Office. I was not expecting to be seen so quickly, but the wait time was fantastic and the care received was top notch. The Doc made sure to ask all the necessary questions and was very patient throughout that process.
Clear advice. Was able to get my questions answered. Good input for next steps. I am happy to see such expertise available via zocdoc. I saw only two cardiologists listed for the area with available appointments that I could see within a few days of searching.
Very good bedside manner. Attended to my questions and needs. The video visits are so convenient too. I'd recommend this doctor to my family or anyone.
Dr Deo: he was personable, and answered my questions with authority. He was able to pull my charts and agreed to refill the prescriptions.
Very positive experience. Dr seemed very knowledgeable and listened well to my concerns. Seem to have a game plan I was comfortable with for my issues.
Dr. Deo was really kind, and there was minimal wait time to be seen.
Great experience. The physician told me he would include the contact information in the chat. However, once disconnected, it was irretrievable.
Very knowledgeable.
Great service.
Good.
Good listener and helped me clear out my doubts.
