Patient Reviews
Feb 22, 2025
Dr. Rokkas is a very kind, very knowledgeable doctor. He helped to monitor my husband's health over an 8 year time period, and when it was the best time to replace his valve, he was very informative and knowledgeable about it being the best stage for surgery. They found that my husband also had a blockage in another area of his heart and Dr. Rokkas corrected that at the same time. We feel blessed to have found a doctor that was able to care for my husband so well. Thank-you Dr. Rokkas and staff from the UW Hospital in Madison, WI.
