Hello! My name is Dr. Mark Epler and I am a cardiac surgeon having graduated from University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine in 2000. To date, I have performed approximately 1,500 cardiac surgeries, of which more than 1,000 involved heart valve procedures. I regularly perform surgery at Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital.

I believe my greatest strength is my interest and fortune in surrounding myself with amazing team members and support staff. We tackle cardiac disease from a team standpoint. There is never an isolated process with just one individual. I have a reliance on a team concept.
Experience has allowed me to be prepared for almost anything that comes to my team. This has allowed me the confidence to tackle complex valve disease that is simply not routine, and cases others would not tackle.
