Feb 13, 2024
l am posting my pleasure with Dr. Kalimi because l just found out about this website. Dec.2021 Dr Kalimi did open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve and do 3 bypasses. 10 tears ago l developed an aortic heart murmur which was being monitored by eco & stress tests. In Oct. 2021 l had a stress test and passed it very well. ln Nov. while cutting my lawn l got tightness in my chest & lightheadedness. l sat down, put a pulse ox on 2-3 & my oxygen was 85. 2-3 Mins. sitting oxygen was 98 & tightness gone. The next week l felt the same symptoms doing work & they became more frequent. l admitted my self to Huntington hospital for more tests. They found 2 blockages in my heart which was the first time l heard of them. l was transferred to South Side Hospital and Dr. Kalimi performed my operation. every aspect of the operation was exceptional from start to finish. l am an EMT with an ambulance squad in Huntington and l know good medical care. l would ask for Dr. Kalimi with confidence.
