Patient Reviews
Mar 07, 2024
Right after finding the news regarding my cardiovascular condition, I hesitated to decide on doctors’ recommended approach to address it. I had never been hospitalized before and the perspective of going through heart surgery seemed daunting to me. It was Dr. Murray Kwon that took the time and explained to me the issue in detail, walking me patiently through the entire process step by step. Eventually, I became confident that the recommended procedure would take me to a good place. The surgery went very well thanks to Dr. Kwon’s and his team exquisite professionalism and kind attention. My family and I will be forever grateful to Dr. Kwon and the UCLA Ronald Reagan Hospital personnel that took care of me throughout the surgery and then while recuperating within ICU facilities. My deepest thanks go to the administrative personnel, too, especially to the surgery coordinator Rafi Boghossian.
