Doctor avgerinos successfully performed an aortic valve repair and an ascending aortic aneurysm repair on my mom in September 2018. His confidence and positivity is one of the first things we noticed. He explains the procedure in a detailed yet calm and patient way. He is always with a smile and made us feel like he cared. Thanks to him, my mom is alive and healthy! Thank you!!!

My husband came on a Saturday after the cardiologist told us to go emergently to the ED. He did ultrasound and saw a huge aneurysm with a tear in the wall. Dr Dimitrios came in to see us and explained that we had to do surgery. He finished the surgery the same afternoon and saved his life!!!

Elias Miro - Dr Avgerinos' bedside manner is second to none. They way he described the procedure calmed me and my family. He makes me feel like he cares about me, my health and my future quality of life. His methods should be studied as the standard. Thank you for saving my life. His staff of nurses also treated me like family, particularly Lovely, Elezabeth, Peter, Paula and Sade.

Our experience with Dr Avgerinos was AWFUL! Although initially he seemed highly attentive, the outcome was disastrous and my mother died shortly after the operation. I cannot help but feel that if Dr. Avgerinos had handled things with more compassion and professionalism snd my Moms bedt interest as his priority, my mother would still be alive today.
