Hiesinger is a horrible surgeon. My mom was doing well before the surgery performed by Hiesinger. She had few episodes of breathlessness due to Mitral valve, however she was doing great otherwise. After Hiesinger performed surgery on my mom, her breathlessness did not improve, rather she got a trachea after her surgery due to respitory failure. I suspect that he ruptured the lungs while opening the sternum and performing open heart surgery to replace the mitral valve. I lost my mom after 8 months of struggle in the ICU at Stanford. Please DO NOT get your surgery done by this Doctor. You may not be alive for too long.
