Surgical performance good. However, do realize that after in hospital visits your care ends. There is no follow up care or references, or guidance whatsoever. If you are no a physician, you must fall back on your primary care physician for post operative support and recommendations. Not very professional, in fact would name post surgical treatment “TOTAL ABANDONMENT.” I am lucky to have surgical pulmonology and cardiology specialists in my reach. Just an FYI you will need help outside this offices concerns for post operative care or recommendations. Effectively, you are left to your own devices for post surgical care. I thought there would be an investment on the part of this medical office in post surgical care, caveat emptor, there is none available. And, there judgement for this lack of provision is pedantic didactic and condescending. Just sayin’

Doesn't communicate well; pushes surgery over other options. Happy went to a 2nd surgeon who suggested alternative. This guy just wanted to cut first and think later

At first I was told that my mother needed surgery for a leaky valve. After the surgery, I was told that she need a bi-pass and that her heart valves was fine. Later, they sent my mother to a nursing home in which she suffered a stroke.

Gave me great confidence, spent time explaining what was happening to me. Very attentive.

Great surgeon. I'm still alive after four years and still kickin' it pretty good.

As another doctor told me about surgeons, they do their thing, give you a super strong antibiotic, and yell next.
