Professional & excellent demeanor.

5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Pousatis gave a great explanation of upcoming surgery and fielded any questions I had. Her overview of different valve types and the pros and cons of each were particularly helpful.

Everyone was very personable. Listened to me and answered all my questions, did not rush me and used props to demonstrate which wS very helpful. Felt I was being treated as a person not just another number. Felt very comfortable and could feel confident being in there care.

I met with Dr Pousatis to surgical options after being referred by my cardiologist. I was impressed by the level of detail she provided in describing my condition and the available approaches. She answered all my questions and I never felt pressured by time. I feel confident in moving forward with her.

5 out of 5 stars

I had to have emergency open heart surgery and Doctor Pousatis was so calming and reassuring. She explained everything in a way I could understand what was going on and not be overwhelmed. I would give more stars if I could.
