Dr. Salazar is my baby's surgeon and we owe his life to him. Dr. Is very compassionate and I think that is his greatest strength. My baby's heart was fully repair by him and his team. We are still waiting for recovery of third surgery but we trust every person on children's memorial Hermann hospital.
