Dr. Guler saved my life! I first met with Dr. Guler 3 days prior to triple bypass bypass surgery, while lying in the Coronary Intensive Care Unit at CPD. His comforting and confident demeanor eased my mind (and my family's mind) as he explained in detail, but very understandable details, what would be done during this procedure.

Dr Guler seems to know his field well. (I would hope so) He is quite busy, I'm sure, but took time to explain to me the procedure, risks, etc. and went beyond, in my opinion. As this was a large operation, I really did appreciate the time spent with me.
