I am 58 years old, had surgery for an aortic aneurism, aortic root repair and aortic valve replacement, pretty complex and scary stuff to go through. Dr. Rudersdorf explained my condition, the procedures and options,  and risks  to me and most importantly to my wife and family. He spent as much time as we needed for questions and concerns, addressing all of them thoroughly.  His staff is incredible and very helpful answering questions and scheduling procedures and follow ups. Dr. Rudersdorf called me at home several times and left numbers for him and his staff before and after the surgery and said to call  anytime 24/7. His bedside manners are incredible, something rare for many surgeons. You sense that he loves what he is doing and truely cares about you as a patient. I am 1 1/2 months out from surgery, have had no complications and am recovering ahead of schedule. I couldn' t have asked for a better outcome and  what a blessing to have Dr. Rudersdorf's skill and compassion to lead me through it.
