I wanted to reach out to you to let you know that my dad passed away this morning at 2:15 am. We did everything we could for him but his body just couldn’t keep up. His heart continued for at least five minutes after he took his final breath. You were a tremendous support going way above and beyond for my family. I am truly grateful I met you and for your healing hands on his heart which unfortunately could not sustain the rest of him. God bless you as I will continue to tell others what a talented and caring surgeon we were so fortunate to have as part of our lives during our time of need. Thank you again, Dr. Ravi. ❤️
Did my bypass surgery and is terrific! I’m 76 years old and unlike so many other drs he has true empathy and concerns for his patients. A genuine nice person as well as a compassionate surgeon.
