Patient Reviews
Jan 07, 2022
In the spring of 2019 I was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm that required immediate attention due to its size and my genetic background. At the time, I was a very healthy 53 year old male and the aneurysm was found while searching for a cause of anemia that turned out to be Lyme. He and his team were one of several such surgical teams I considered to take on the valve sparing procedure. The surgery happened on May 19, 2019 and I was out of the hospital in 4 days. He did an outstanding job from start to finish, and I have had a very full recovery having successfully returned to endurance sports. I waited this long to submit my review so that I could deliver it with confidence to other people considering his care. He and his team are extremely experienced and world class (if not the best) at performing these complicated procedures (valve sparing aortic aneurysm repair). Thank You!
