Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Successful mitral valve repair and ablation.
My mitral valve repair and ablation experience with Dr. Kantamneni, in 2018, was completely successful and highly satisfactory. My preprocedure conference was informative and cooperative, with much mutually respectful back and forth between us. Post-op visits (in cardiac ICU, etc.) were friendly, informative, and encouraging. I recommend Dr. K without reservation.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Kantamneni?
My surgery was rare and difficult. Everyone reassured me that Dr. Kantamneni was the best choice for me. He was very thorough, did not pull any punches in explaining risks and potential outcomes, and listened to my concerns. Four months later, I am still here and feel great! I strongly recommend Dr. Kantamneni for non-routine cardiac surgery.
