Dr Romano has many gifts. In addition to her amazing skill as a cardiac surgeon , she has a kind and gentle manner with families. She spent extra time listening to our concerns and explained things in a way that was easy to understand. Although we met under a stressful situation, looking back We are blessed that she was the surgeon.

Dr. Hirsch is WONDERFUL! She is caring, and spent quality time answering questions for parents. She also truly treasures her patients, and spent time playing with and talking to our daughter after she woke up post surgery. She is (obviously) incredibly intelligent yet always answers questions in an understandable way. We could not have asked for or found a better surgeon anywhere. We are SO blessed that she is our daughters surgeon!
