Patient Reviews
Jan 30, 2025
Dr. Ciuffo is kind, straightforward, funny with a superb sense of humor. No beating around the bush. He tells you like it is. I honestly believe he saved my life, and I am truly grateful and in his debt. Dr. Ciuffo was honest in telling me and my family what was to come with the cabbaged and triple bypass procedure. I believe honesty is the best policy in these difficult circumstances.He told me you are going to feel like you got hit by a truck and boy was he right, but that you would feel better and be better soon after and he was right. Three weeks since the open-heart surgery and I feel so fortunate that Dr. Ciuffo was my surgeon.
