Patient Reviews
May 16, 2024
Dr. Jayakar saved my dad’s life. He went in for a scope of his heart & if he needed a stent, they planned to do so. It was discovered that my dad needed 11-15 stents & 2 bypasses. The hospital was scared to even let my dad drive home. They reached out to Dr. Jayakar, whose surgeries were booked out for months. He made an exception due to the state my dad was in. We were told they were going to instead do 5 bypasses, & planned to keep my dad’s heart beating through the process. Dr. Jayakar had a tough job ahead of him, but he undoubtedly saved my dad’s life. We were blessed to have his experience & expertise as the surgeon, who saved my dad. I am eternally grateful. Thank you beyond words Dr. Jayakar. I will never forget the care & valuable advice for moving forward, that you instilled upon my dad.
