1 Patient Review for
Dr. Tsao
"Dr. Tsao has given me the opportunity to continue life with an incredible outlook. She replaced my pulmonary value through a catheter in 2024, and I am now able to participate in activities that I would not have expected. Climbing a flight of stairs is no longer a task, and going outside for a run is now an option.
Dr. Tsao’s professionalism, bedside manner, and ability to explain complex procedures in an understandable way made me feel comfortable in a stressful situation. Dr. Tsao’s passion for her work pushes the boundaries of innovation, and the future of possibilities. She elevates interventional cardiology to the next level and provides patients with possibility of a future. I will be forever grateful for Dr. Tsao and the team at the University of Pennsylvania.
What Dr. Tsao calls a good day at work, I call a miracle. Thank you Dr. Tsao and the team.
As a patient, if you are in a situation where cardiac intervention is needed, I highly recommend contacting Dr. Tsao."
