Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2021
Dr Nakamura did a quadrupal bypass surgery on me in July 2021. I must say that he and his team of professionals from the receptionist and staff to anesthesiologist and PA's were terrific. I shall forever appreciate Dr Nakamura's technical skill as a surgeon and also the thoroughness of his work. During my recovery, 3 ICU nurses said if they ever have to do heart surgery they would want Dr Nakamura to work on them. His attention to detail is amazing as the 9 inch incision on my chest looks like a fine ball point pen of a scar. If that work is an indication of his skills he uses on the inside grafts, then I'm confident that he is the best in Hawaii. Most of all, he is a very personalble guy. He helped me and my wife feel totally comfortable about the whole process and his other team members so I knew I was in great hands. I strongly recommend Dr Nakamura for any heart surgery and will proudly show people my scar if they ask to see proof. Much MAHALO to Dr Nakamura and his team!!!
