Apr 15, 2024
I had both and Aortic Valve Replacement and Aneurysm surgery performed by Dr Lamelas.Only spent 3 nights in Hospital and recovered very fast. I was 100 percent by the end of the second week. My Internist and Cardiologist have commented my recovery is the best they have ever seen. Had my surgery October 2023 and live a very active life thanks to Dr Lamelas and University of Miami. Dr Lamelas staff is also the best in providing the care.My family and I are very thankful for having him do the surgery.
