Dr. Downar helped keep my husband alive for several extra years after he was given his death sentence by not making the transplant list. I will forever be thankful for the extra time Dr. Downar gave us together. His bedside manner was so pleasant and kind, yet even a very tasteful sense of humour. When we were given the word that Dave didn’t make the transplant list, Dr Downar told us that he still had a couple of tricks up his sleeve! It was in the very early days of ablation and Dr Downar very expertly performed several on his more than willing patient. He also watched over while a bilateral sympathectomy was performed to try to disturb the electrical signals to his heart! He never gave up and neither did my amazing husband. They were from the same area of England and had a lot of funny stories to share with each other, which only kept my husband’s moral up as high as it could be. We had an EXTRA 4 years together more then what the transplant surgeon forecasted. He is the kindest and most caring person you could ever ask for! One day while just passing each other in the hall of the hospital, he stopped and said “well i know how he is doing, but how are you doing?” That meant so much to me that even this many years later I remember his words! If you are fortunate enough to have Dr. Downar on your health team, you couldn’t be in better hands! Even though my husband passed away 14 years ago, I will ALWAYS. Be thankful for Dr. Downar’s brilliance, expertise and genuine caring touch!
