Patient Reviews
Jun 15, 2017
Our son was born with a very complex congenital heart defect and has had three open heart surgeries as a result of his condition at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics performed by Dr. Turek. Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation our family feels towards Dr. Turek. He is obviously a very skilled and talented surgeon, but beyond that he is a very compassionate and caring person. There is no one our family would be more comfortable and confident in handing our son over to.
