"Dr. Kerendi replaced my mitral valve, repaired my tricuspid valve and placed a clip on my atrial appendage, via sternotomy. He is a skilled surgeon who is very approachable. After my initial appointment, I thought of many, many other questions to ask - especially regarding information posted on this site -- and he always responded to my patient portal queries promptly, even several months after my surgery.
Dr. Kerendi belongs to a cardiothoracic and vascular surgeons group; however, he also serves as a member of the Heart Valve Clinic at the Heart Hospital of Austin, where he collaborates with cardiologists in the assessment of heart valve disease.
Aside from being an excellent surgeon, he also has a good bedside manner, and his team (PAs, office staff, etc.) is wonderful. Everyone was caring and attentive. I highly recommend Dr. Kerendi!"

"I was referred to Dr. Kerendi when the surgeon who did my first valve surgery retired. Dr. Kerendi monitored an aortic aneurysm annually until I needed a second valve surgery, then addressed the aneurysm along with the valves that needed attention.
He re-replaced my aortic valve, repaired my mitral valve, replaced a section of my aorta, & reworked the aortic coarctation conduit from my first surgery. My surgery was considered "complex". I just cannot recommend him highly enough. Dr. Kerendi is highly skilled & has a kind demeanor. The best of the best. "
