"Fantastic doctor who had to complete a complex second aortic replacement due to the first one failing. I had tons of scar tissue and the surgery required some delicate procedures to scrape part of heart off of the breastbone. Fantastic bed side manner, a strong man of faith, and according to nurses and other doctors in the operating room, when things became dicey, Dr. Muehlebach became more calm and peaceful."

"I very impressed by this Dr. Muehlebach. I learned more from him about my condition & surgery options than from the 2 other surgeons I consulted combined. I spent an hour talking to him the first time I met him and I'd only just scheduled the appointment that day. My surgery took only 2.5 hrs w/o problems to our pleasant surprise. He came all 5 days of my hospital stay to check on me even saturday! I would highly recommend the staff at KUMED to everyone as well. The place is much more personal than the other two hospitals I elicited second opinions from."

"Dr. Muehlebach was very communicative and empathetic about my situation and concerns. He answered every question and together we fashioned a plan. It was very successful! Dr. Muehlebach and his team at KU Med have my unending gratitude!"

"A thoroughly professional man. Dr. Muehlebach had an excellent ability to communicate with me. The procedure could not have been smoother."

"The surgeon was excellent. Took as much time as I needed to feel comfortable with the procedure. Very skilled and well regarded. I can't say enough about the nursing staff. Don't underestimate their importance in your recovery."

"He answered all of my and my families questions and never rushed us. Unlike others in this profession he does not have an enlarged ego. Surgery was very successful in a calm methodical manner."
