Patient Reviews
Aug 27, 2023
I came in a helicopter due to a rupturing aortic aneurysm. You don't often survive those things. He did a double by-pass and put in a porcine valve. Has the general disposition of a surgeon but results were most exceptional. I am a physician and have seen many thoracic surgeons. Consider yourself fortunate if he needs operates on you.
