Biography
Luis A. Dibos, MD, FACS Luis A. Dibos, MD, FACS, is a board-certified Cardiovascular surgeon, with over 20 years experience in clinical practice. He received his general surgery training at Union Memorial Hospital, in Baltimore, MD, from 1989 to 1993, and then a Cardiac surgery fellowship at SUNY upstate, in Syracuse, New York, followed by a chief resident year in Cardiac surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. While at the Clinic, he received extensive training in reoperative cardiac surgery, ventricular assist devices, as well as complex valvular surgery, working along side Drs. Bruce Lytle, Toby Cosgrove, and Pat McCarthy. He then went on to practice Cardiac Surgery in Baltimore. Dr. Dibos' special interests include minimally invasive valve surgery, off pump (beating heart) bypass surgery, and complex aortic surgery. He has performed over 5000 cases during his career, including close to 2000 off pump procedures. He is considered a regional expert in the off pump technique. Dr. Dibos has also been involved with several TAVR programs throughout the country, and has been involved in over 100 of these procedures since 2013. While practicing in Baltimore , he was repeatedly listed as a "Top Doc" in Cardiac Surgery, most recently from 2010-2016, and was named as one of the up and coming Cardiac Surgeons under age 40, in 1999. In January of 2017, Dr. Dibos decided to leave Baltimore, and has been traveling around the country as a traveling or "locums" cardiac surgeon. He has worked in hospitals in Colorado, Wisconsin, Montana, and Florida. He holds a medical license in 13 states, and is enjoying his new phase of life. "I never realized how much of a need there was for experienced cardiac surgeons in other parts of the country. It has been very rewarding operating on patients in these locations. I definitely feel like I am filling a void, and making a difference."
