Patient Reviews
Apr 10, 2023
Dr. Firstenberg saved my dad’s life. My parents were visiting Maui when my dad had an MI causing a ventricle rupture and was rushed to the OR. He coded on the table and Dr. Firstenberg and his team were able to intervene just in time. My family has never felt more lucky to have him be the surgeon on call that day. Anyone would be lucky to have him care for themself or loved ones. We are forever grateful. The care he provided was more than excellent.
