About Dr. Patrick DeValeria,
Heart Valve Surgeon
Hello! My name is Dr. Patrick DeValeria and I am a cardiac surgeon having graduated from Stanford University School of Medicine in 1987. Mayo Clinic performs more than 4,500 cardiac surgeries each year. We are experts in treating pediatric, congenital and complex forms of heart valve disease using minimally invasive procedures including transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and robotic mitral valve repair. In addition, Mayo Clinic specializes in treating cardiac conditions often related to heart valve disease including atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease and aortic aneurysms. I regularly perform surgery at Mayo Clinic in Arizona. Read more...
8 Patient Reviews for
Dr. DeValeria
"Dr. DeValeria is head of cardio-thoracic surgery for Mayo Clinic Phoenix. He is a very young 61-year-old doctor with a vast amount of experience, having preceded his position at Mayo Clinic with stints at Johns Hopkins and Stanford.
I STRONGLY recommend Dr. DeValeria for any heart surgery needs from valve repair/replacement all the way to full transplant. In the classic Mayo Clinic manner, Dr. DeValeria's staff of PA's and cardiac nurses are simply fantastic.
And, as a final note, I truly appreciated Dr. DeValeria's sense of humor - he really can make you feel good in a short time during his bedside visits as well as in all pre-procedure meetings. I can't recommend Dr DeValeria enough."

"I can’t say enough good things about Dr. DeValeria. I expect doctors to be more knowledgeable about their area of expertise than I am, which Dr. DeValeria certainly is. One of the areas he excels is he’s also very good at translating medical jargon into easily understandable language. The most telling thing for me was just before surgery, I was joking around with the anesthesiologist who would be taking care of me throughout the procedure - she was great too. When Dr. D walked into the room, the joking stopped. Everybody stood up straighter and it was all business. His mere presence put everyone on their “A Game.” It was clear the level of performance & professionalism he expected during a procedure and that all involved were well rehearsed and committed to not be the person to do something foolish. He has an air of quiet confidence, but is patient enough to answer my inane questions. I referring to during office visits, before the surgery I didn’t have many questions, but I’m sure he’d have made everyone else wait to address my questions or concerns.
If heart surgery is unavoidable, he’s the person you want in your corner. I’m alive today because of him. The only thing that kinda saddens me is that if he ever needs heart surgery he’ll have to settle for the second best surgeon to perform it.
I recommend him with no reservations of any kind. He’s really that good. "
