Patient Reviews
Mar 21, 2024
I was referred to Dr. Damiano from a cardiac interventionist in Columbia, MO for a mitral valve replacement. Dr. Damiano was warm, caring, explained precisely what was needed. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. I would recommend him, without reservation, to anyone needing the same or similar procedure. He gave me the chance to live well once again. I am looking forward to truly living life to its fullest and it is all thanks to him and his team.
