Patient Reviews
Aug 05, 2019
While in hospital at Karmanos Cancer Hospital I was seen by Dr. Afonso for an unrelated issue. He helped find a serious issue with my pericardial sac that another cardiologist down played. He took time to verify and consult with other specialist to devise a treatment plan allowing for surgery only as last resort. As with any new course of medications there comes side effects. He provided his personal cell number to text with problems; evenings and weekends. His response was less than a 1/2 hr. I have not reached the end of my treatment, but as for now I could not be happier with the care I am receiving.

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
