Blog Topics: Top Cardiothoracic Surgeon - Mark Bleiweis; Gainesville, Florida; Heart Surgeon at University of Florida.

Hi there,

From February through April of this year, I ran an extensive survey to better understand the realities of heart valve surgery for patients and their caregivers.

Some of the questions posed to the 78 former, heart valve surgery patients were about their cardiothoracic surgeons. The responses to these questions were very interesting.

As I reviewed the survey results, a few select heart surgeons received high marks and comments from their heart valve surgery patients. One of those top cardiothoracic surgeons was Dr. Mark Bleiweis, MD from Gainesville, Florida.

Dr. Mark Bleiweis, M.D. is a heart surgeon from Gainesville, Florida. Dr. Bleiweis specializes in adult cardiac surgery and pediatric surgery.

Like most of the cardiothoracic surgeons referenced in my heart valve surgery survey, Dr. Mark Bleweis, MD, has a very solid background and academic record. Here is a list of facilities that Dr. Mark Bleweis has studied and/or practiced at:

• Cornell University
• University of California, San Diego School of Medicine
• Harbor - UCLA Medical Center General Surgery
• University of California, Fellow Pediatric Cardiac Surgery
• UNC-Chapel Hill, Assistant Professor of Surgery
• Children’s Heart Institute, Orange County
• St. Joseph’s Hospital, Orange County
