Patient Reviews
Oct 21, 2021
Dr. Lapunzina replaced my husband’s aorta and aortic valve 4 years ago. There have been no complications since and my husband went back to living a full active life. But perhaps equally important is the fact the Dr. Lapunzina approaches his patients with a calm respect and a genuine interest in helping them to make their lives better. He was not only incredibly communicative with my husband, but also was very supportive of me and my concerns and fears throughout the process. Hands down the best specialist I have met yet!
