Dr. Mazziotti performed the nuss procedure on my 15 yr old daughter on 7/3/12. Her chest was 8.6 on the Haller index. The result is amazing! Really beautiful.
Dr. Mazziotti has a wonderful bedside manner, which is incredibly important to us since this is an emotional time. He's sweet, funny, and compassionate. He has an easy-going manner, but with complete seriousness behind it - if that makes sense. We just really felt comfortable with his confidence and knowledge.
He has been 100% accessible via cell phone/text - even through another health crisis we had a month before surgery. He wanted us to keep in touch to let him know how she was doing. He has spent as much time as we've needed answering questions and talking with us about our concerns without us ever feeling rushed. Before and after the surgery.
He also has a wonderful team. All the surgeons that checked on us throughout our hospital stay were compassionate, knowledgable and helpful with our concerns.
