Dr. Fotouhi gave me my life back last year during both of my heart surgeries to replace major valves! He seriously is amazing.

I had open heart surgery three months ago performed by Dr. Farzin Fotouhi. He was very patient and informative. He was also caring and at ease with all my questions. I was extremely comfortable having him do my surgery. I would recommend him to a friend or family member readily. He was kind and had a calming ability to put me at ease from the initial visit, throughout the week in the hospital including the follow-up appointment. All is going along as it was clearly explained.

My father was told he needed a triple bypass. We went to another hospital and got a second opinion. Turns out, there were other less invasive options available. We completely avoided bypass surgery and he is doing great. Please always get a second opinion.

Dr Fotouhi is a caring, professional and highly skilled surgeon. Two years ago, Dr. Fotouhi performed open heart surgery on my husband. The surgery was a complete success. We were all thankful for his bedside manner and skillful hands as he cared for my husband. I would highly recommend Dr. Fotouhi.
