Patient Reviews
Mar 09, 2023
Dr. Morales replaced my aortic valve with a pig valve. I was very sick with systemic infection. Surgery was performed after two weeks of being in the hospital. I was at "high-risk for in-hospital mortality." Can't begin to say how grateful I am for his surgical treatment. I have no memory of ever seeing him but my being alive attests to his great skills.
