Dr. Christiano Caldeira, MD

I experienced everything the Dr or his staff informed me.

he saved my life i love him and my family loves him and his team

I had a Mitral Valve repair surgery on July 25 2022 by Dr Caldeira at Largo Medical Center. I had a severe leak from my mitral valve. I was very nervous getting the surgery. There was no need to worry ,Dr. Caldeira and the team at Largo did an unbelievable job the surgery was a success and my recovery was much better than I expected. I would recommend anyone needing this surgery to use Dr. Caldeira .

Dr Caldeira performed surgery on me in April 2020. (This was at the height of the COVID outbreak) I had an ascending aortic dissection. I would not be alive today otherwise. I will be forever thankful that I was fortunate enough to have him assigned to my case when I came through the emergency dept. I was naturally very frightened to learn of my diagnosis. What comforted me at that point was that all of my physicians and nurses at the Largo Medical Center could not say enough good things about Dr Caldeira. It has been a year now and I am doing fairly well. We are truly blessed to have this expert surgeon in the Tampa Bay, Florida area. Thank you

Dr. Caldeira performed surgery on me in 2016 for Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy (HOCM), also replacing the Aortic valve and the Mitral valve. He literally saved my life. May God continue to guide his hands and Bless him forever. V.Hovater

Can not rate this doctor high enough. He is compassionate, does not have a ego like most doctors. He did open heart surgery on me for a valve repair almost 15 years ago, i dont even have a scar anymore, could not recommend him and his team and higher than i already do. He is the only person i would trust working on my heart! Bar none!

I had aortic valve replacement surgery about 3 1/2 years ago. Surgery and recovery went very well. Dr. Caldeira and his staff were attentive and caring.

Great!

Best doctor and heart team in the entire Tampa Bay area. I had triple by pass and was out of the hospital in 4 days. No complications at all, no real chest pain, sewed me up very nice--hardly a scar. I wouldn't have any other doctor touch my heart. Michael Baccich

Dr caldeira did my triple by pass surgery about may 24th 2019 everything is great awsome Dr.

Had unexpected triple surgery at largo medical center Easter weekend. Can't recommend hospital but awfully glad he was the surgeon. Uses a special technique that allows the heart to continue beating some patients never have to "brought back". At no point during the surgery does the patient die and get revived. His stitches are clean and straight.

Outstanding in every way

Almost three years post heart transplant, myself! Friend is one year post aortic aneurysm repair! Greaty skilled surgeon who is highly dedicated to patient care. Fellow cardiac surgeons at TGH are as well. Thanks, TGH ??

I had a difficult open heart surgery of a triple bypass, Mitral Valve Repair and Mazz procedure to correct Afib. Rehap went normally for a 66 yr old man and 1 1/2 years later had a stress test, wore a halter monitor for 24 hrs and had a stress test. My cardiologist read the results and said everything is normal and no sign of the return of afib.

Dr. Caldiera was able to successfully complete coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on my wife. Four other Cardiothoracic Surgeons in Central Florida said it was impossible to do the surgery, as her arteries were small. Not only is Dr. Caldiera a highly respected and talented Surgeon, he is a very personable and compassionate man. We owe you a debt that money itself cannot repay. Thank you for saving my best friend and love of my life!
