How likely are you to recommend Dr. Limmer?
He explains well the procedure. He has great bedside manner. Glad we got him as my husband's surgeon to fix his aortic aneurysm. His NPs, LVN and all his staff members are awesome as well especially Sheryl their scheduler. I highly recommend Dr Limmer to those who needs heart surgery. Great MD!
