Dr Fitton did not hurry the meeting and took the time to thoroughly explain TAVR and SAVR, and how they related to my condition. He answered all of my and my daughter's questions and gave me confidence to proceed forward.

I thought Dr. Fiton was exceptional. He took the time to explain my issues in detail and integrated an earlier (1969) problem into my current situation. His candor was much appreciated!

The doctor I most recently saw was a heart specialist. I went in very agitated and worked up. He was calm, knowledgeable, and had a great manner about him. I left feeling informed, healthy, and grateful.
