I went to Dr. Martin for a severely leaking tricuspid valve. I was high risk due to it being my third open heart surgery. The surgery went very well and although it was a lengthy recovery I am doing great. I haven’t felt this good in years. Besides his skill he is a kind and gentle doctor which put me at ease. His staff is amazing as well. Wonderful communication! Best surgeon ever!
