About Dr. Duc Thinh Pham,
Heart Surgeon

"My results were very good with Dr. Pham. I feel great and had no problems or complications after surgery. Thank God! His manner is very pleasant!"

"Dr. Pham and his team were superb. Their communication with my family and me was excellent, and the time this busy group spent with us made me feel as if I was their only patient. I had a fast recovery and, thanks to Dr. Pham and his group, great results."

"Dr. Pham has great bedside manners and a great staff. I have already referred others."

"I had the absolute best care."

"Dr. Pham is so good at what he does. Thanks Dr. Pham for fixing my heart. I love you!"

"While my immediate need was a valve repair, Dr. Pham had reviewed my file before our first meeting and suggested this would be an opportunity to repair an aortic aneurysm, and also perform a maze procedure for the Afib. I had been taking medications for years to control my atrial fibrillation. This was a year ago and I enjoy life with no medical restrictions or difficulties. I couldn't be happier that Dr. Pham was my surgeon and I would recommend him without hesitation."

"Dr. Pham's hands were a miracle to my heart. He is professional in all manners. Thanks to him my life has been saved and my quality of life has been greatly improved. He inspires a lot of confidence in his patients. Huge thanks to Dr. Pham and all his team."

"Dr. Pham was direct and to the point. He made diagnosis and recommendations for treatment clear. Also with consideration of my age and physical condition. Showed concern for my recovery and length of hospital stay. This a man who clearly in charge and my results testify to his competence."

"I am doing great and I appreciate everything Dr. Pham and his team has done for me as well as Dr. Flaherty's team, everyone was so nice."

"The whole experience was fantastic! The surgeon, staff, housekeeping, everyone that I was in contact, was super friendly. Dr. Pham is right on top for me! Since I met him, I felt so comfortable with him and I never felt scared. The day after my heart surgery Dr. Pham came to see me to check on me."

"Surgical results were great. I was 66 at the time of surgery and in good health except for the heart valve. I was told I could resume physical activity after the surgery, and resumed martial arts workouts (carefully) about 3 months after surgery. It is now 12 months after surgery and it's a distant memory. I have no physical limitations or side effects, and my blood pressure has gone down. My scar is tiny and not an issue at all.

Regarding bedside manner, Dr Pham was very good leading up to the surgery, but I did have trouble meeting with him afterwards for some follow-up questions while still in the hospital. However, once he was able to see me it went well. He is easy to talk to and spent as much time as I wanted.

My experiences with Dr. Pham and Nortwestern Hospital in Chicago were both very good and I recommend both."

"Thank you Dr. Pham. I feel fantastic and I'm riding my bike 6 miles a day in the winter and 12 miles a day in the summer."

"Dr. Pham is an amazing surgeon. If I needed follow up surgery I would drive to Chicargo to consult with him. He is an amazing man who I credit with my well being today. Although we had only a few meetings, I felt confident in his ability to correct my heart valve issue. There is no one I would trust more with my family members, should they need a cardiac surgeon."

"Excellent! I had 4+ mitral regurgitation and couldn't barely walk. My valve was repaired by Dr. Duc Thinh Pham. Now, I have no mitral regurgitation and feel great."
