We met a lot of doctors, to understand what is best way forward for my mother’s heart condition (Valve being narrow, hence causing discomfort in chest during exhaustion). Most doctors rarely take out time to clarify the patient-caretaker doubts during the initial phases of decision making (surgery or not & associated trade-offs).

Our family approached Dr. Iyer with my father’s case of severely blocked arteries stemming from uncontrolled diabetes. It was considered a risky case because he was also in heart failure. Dr. Iyer came highly recommended from our Cardiologist for Cardiovascular procedures. He is exceptionally accomplished and very experienced in his field. From the very first consultation we were comfortable working with Dr. Iyer and confident in proceeding with the course of treatment. He was very approachable and transparent with the plan which was reassuring to us.
