Edward Avis, a recent heart valve surgery patient, posted the following about Dr. Ota:
“Dr. Ota is a kind, compassionate surgeon who explained everything both before and after surgery, which helped me and my family feel less afraid and more confident about the procedure to replace my aortic valve via open heart surgery. Dr. Ota’s medical credentials, or course, are unparalleled but his demeanor and bedside manner are what helped me me through a very difficult and scary time.
