Dr. Richard James Angelico, MD

Dr. Angelico saved my father's life after a "routine" triple bypass went sideways because of the anesthesiologist. My Dad's surgery went from a 3 hour operation to a 13 hour operation pretty quickly. His 3 day stay then became a 30 day stay. Dr. Angelico and his staff were amazing and made sure he got the BEST treatment every step of the way. We owe his life to him and his amazing staff.

My father needed a quadruple bypass 2 years ago. The surgery was textbook but as they closed him up the anesthesiologist scoped my Dad and accidentally tore through his esophagus into his stomach (my Dad has a very large hiatal hernia). A 3 hour surgery turned into a 13 hour nightmare. The poor general surgeon who took over had a very difficult time getting to the tears because of the hernias position. Dr. Angelico took over and performed a thoracotomy and was able to make the repairs. My Dad stayed in the cardiac ICU with round-the-clock care. He even made sure that my Dad was accepted into the hospitals rehab program. He wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for Dr. Angelico and his amazing staff.

Dr. Angelicos' skills are matched only byhis empathy for the patient. Dr. Angelicoperformed a quadruple bypass and a lobectomy with precision. His follow up was exceptional. I consider myself fortunate indeed to have been hispatient.
