Patient Reviews
Dec 02, 2021
Dr. Alkire and the team at Tampa General Hospital performed 5 cardiac bypasses and an aortic aneurysm repair on me in 2015. He is a very caring physician and an excellent surgeon. He followed my recovery thoroughly visiting nearly every day. He communicates well with his patients and medical staff and is well respected by the many other healthcare professionals who participated in my surgery and rehabilitation. He truly is a lifesaver.
