"Dr. Botham was exceptional in every way! Very up front and answered all questions, took as much time with me and family as we needed with questions. Super bedside manner, very professional and thoughtful. Staff was super at Hillside Hospital on Mayfield Road. My mitral valve was almost completely calcified, he had to replace it with a titanium valve. Had some problems right after surgery getting my heart rate up, so he kept me in ICU for 4 days, went home on the 6th day. No problems since, only getting used to hearing the constant 'ticking' - but that ticking is a good thing. I felt 110% better by the 2nd day, was up walking the ICU and could breath - day I came in for surgery, I could barely walk from the car to the front door of the atrium, and I was only 61 years old!! Told him about Adam's book, he immediately went to his office and looked it up, said he would read it and thanked me! Can't say enough good about him!! "

"Dr. Mark Botham is an exceptional man and surgeon! He is very caring and in tune to his patients concerns. He put me totally at ease for a procedure that scared me to death. He replaced my totally calcified mitral valve with a new titanium valve. The day before surgery I could hardly walk a few feet without being out of breath, day after surgery, he had me almost doing laps in ICU ! Extremely competent surgeon, wonderful guy!"
