Patient-centered medicine where you matter

Louisville Cardiovascular

Care

Louisville Cardiovascular Care is a private practice established by Dr. Kenneth Kral in April, 2015. Dr. Kral began practicing cardiology in 1982. His mission is to provide excellent care to his patients by treating them like people - not numbers.

 

Many corporate practices focus on revenue. The physicians are often encouraged to see as many patients as possible, limiting the amount of time they can spend with each patient. Dr. Kral focuses on patients' individual needs without time restrictions or quotas.

We Do Things Differently

Corporate Medicine

Visits are Rushed

Corporate medicine focuses on revenue, not patients' needs. They overbook to make more money, which limits the amount of time doctors can spend with their patients.  

Long Waits

With such a high patient volume, doctors frequently run behind. This means long waits for patients.

No Parking

Large, crowded establishments means limited parking, and long walks to get to your doctor's office. 

Impersonal

Short, rushed visits make it difficult to develop a strong rapport with your doctor.

Doctor Doesn't Listen

The average time that a doctor interrupts his or her patient after he or she begins to speak is 12-18 seconds!

Won't Return Phone Calls

Getting in touch with your physician is almost impossible. Phone calls are rarely answered or returned and you hardly ever get to talk to your actual doctor.

Private Medicine

Take Your Time

Dr. Kral focuses on each individual patient's needs. There is no overbooking, so he is able to spend more time with each one of his patients. You will never feel rushed with him.

Short Waits

At a private practice, such as Louisville Cardiovascular Care, waits are rarely longer than 5 minutes.

Easy Parking

You can park in a parking lot directly outside the office. No more circling around parking garages or walking long distances to get to your appointment.

Personal Care

Dr. Kral believes having a good rapport with his patients is crucial in effectively treating them. You will never be treated like a number.

Dr. Kral Listens

Dr. Kral believes what patients tell him is valuable. He will listen to your needs without interrupting.

Talk to the Doctor

When you need to speak with him, Dr. Kral will call you directly. Unlike corporate medicine, you will be able to speak with your actual doctor about what's important to you.
