Patient Reviews
Mar 26, 2019
Dr. Kuykendall repaired my Mitral valve in 2010. At the time I was aerobically fit after many years of exercise. He not only saved my life after I went into congestive heart failure but returned me to every day, normal life. It is now 2019 and I'm going strong as ever in my aerobic training. I'm 76 years old. This gentleman is a sharpshooter with a scalpel in one hand, a book of kindness in the other and a smile on his face every time I talked to him.
