Dr. Fingleton performed an elective aortic valve replacement to remedy my severe regurgitation. All prep was spot on for max safety, full understanding of my condition and requirements for correct action. Staff was great. Full detailed explanation from doc and answered my many questions re possible scenarios. Total confidence in his professional skill & judgement. Followup was good and gives me confidence for my recovery and future good health. Warmest thanks to a fine surgeon!
