Patient Reviews
Nov 03, 2024
My husband's brother (8 yrs. younger) ended up with 5 bypasses plus a replacement valve. After urging from all family and me, my husband went for a nuclear stress test, which showed a possible stent. Angiogram showed additional blockages, so he was referred to Dr. Paape. She answered all his questions, explained why he could not get a stent, and was very honest and direct; she took her time with us, and left us feeling he was in good hands. He went through surgery of a triple bypass on Oct. 7, 2024; from before surgery and continuing, she described how he would feel, what he should be able to do each day, what to expect in the coming days. It was exactly as she described! Will definitely be recommending her. Also, has a funny sense of humor, which was a plus.
