Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2025
In essence, he saved my life. On July 16, 2018, I awoke to severe chest pain and was promptly taken to Phoenixville Hospital, initially diagnosed with a heart attack. At the age of 56, I underwent a helicopter transfer to Lankenau Hospital, where Dr. Plestis performed life-saving surgery for an aortic dissection. I am eternally grateful for his exceptional surgical expertise.During my extended six-week hospital stay, Dr. Plestis exhibited remarkable bedside manner and genuine concern for my well-being. This compassionate care persisted throughout my subsequent follow-up appointments. His nurse practitioner, Jacky McGee, was equally impressive, providing informative support and genuine care.As we approach July 2025, marking seven years since my life was saved, I express my profound gratitude to Dr. Plestis and his entire team.
