About Mario F.L. Gaudino, M.D., Ph.D.
“I am humbled to be an Attending Cardiac Surgeon in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at ÎåÔÂÌìÊÓƵ. Throughout my academic career, I have been lucky enough to train with the giants of coronary artery bypass surgery. While bypass surgery may appear as one of the more basic cardiac operation, the complexities of the patient and the variations of the operation require exquisite attention to detail to keep patients safe, which is my main priority. With the support of the incredible staff, including the cardiac anesthesia team, nurses, technicians and surgeons, I have the utmost confidence that I am in the best possible environment to provide the highest level of care to my patients.”
