4 Patient Reviews for
Dr. Boulton
"Dr. Boulton was very informative, extremely knowledgeable, calm, reassuring, very experienced and was always available to answer any questions. My surgery was a huge success. My recovery went better than expected. I would highly recommend him. He is the best in his field."
-- Christy Dixon, Mitral Valve, Valve Repair, 12/14/2020
"Dr. Boulton removed my vegetated prosthetic aortic valve that was blood culture negative and later believed to have been caused by getting scratched by a Cat “Bartonella”. The valve was quite infected along with the area around the valve.
If it wasn’t for Dr. Boulton’s creativity and endurance “8 hour surgery“, I would not be here today.
He has excellent bedside manners, very positive, post-operation with me that really helped. I’m doing great and would recommend him to friends and family."
