Dr Gongora is an exceptional, excellent doctor who saved my wife’s life. We are on vacation from Hungary and last night my wife felt pain in her chest and back we went to the emergency care and were told she needed an aorta surgery right away, Dr Gongora and his team was working on her more then 7 hours. After surgery he explained everything he was detailed, warm, friendly so there are no words to say how great full and thankful and amazed And appreciated I feel!! Thank you so much! ????Izsáki
