Patient Reviews
Sep 11, 2024
Quad CABG. Rating is positive but process incomplete because healing continues for six months. Until healing is complete, I cannot comment on efficacy of procedure. Friendly, patiently answered questions and explained procedure. My ignorance prevented me asking more questions than I now wished. A brochure explaining many more details of procedure, especially recovery and healing would have been helpful. Nevertheless, I'm very satisfied, and deeply grateful. My condition was very serious (deadly) and Dr. Fotouhi saved my life.
