Patient Reviews
Jan 26, 2026
When my cardiologist recommended CABG surgery instead of stents due to multiple vessels blockages, I got worried. When I met Dr. Murali Dharan before the surgery, his compassion and confidence melted away all my worries. He said he is going to take good care of me. And, he took excellent care of me! All my pre-op tests and counseling were handled very efficiently by his office. Got my surgery scheduled within a week. Surgery went very well with multiple grafts. Recovery from it was very smooth and quick. His office ensured I had proper follow up care as part of recovery at home. I highly recommend Dr. Dharan to anyone needing CABG surgery.
