Patient Reviews
Aug 13, 2024
Dr Nakamura did a double heart by pass on my Husband in May 2024 . The very best experience that we could have possibly expected. We loved having him as his surgeon. Very confident and reassuring. He listened carefully, was always calm even when I wasn't. His staff is very good, professional and helpful. The incision was so good we thought he may have been a plastic surgeon at one time .. He followed through with us and patiently saw us through the entire process. We felt so privileged to have him do the surgery.
