Michael Bolanos, MD

Dr Bolanos was in town supporting our busy cardiac thoracic surgery department at Holmes Regional Medical Center in Melbourne Florida last week. And I can say with certainty that my husband was very lucky to have Dr Bolanos as his CT surgeon. My husband is only 66 and has a family history of high B/P and arterial sclerosis disease. My husband woke in the middle of the night with chest pain and from there he ended up in surgery for a triple bypass. My husband's recovery is as close to a miracle as could be. This is day seven since the surgery and he's already walking four blocks, three times a day! He came home from the hospital two days ago and doesn't even require pain medication after having his chest cracked open and a triple bypass. Only a skilled surgeon can do that! I've spent my career working in the healthcare industry, and Dr Bolanos is definitely one of the leaders in his specialty. Aside from the detailed perfectionism of his field, he is a man that commands the room, yet is full of compassion and confidence. I almost fell apart when I found out that my husband had a severe blockage, commonly referred to as the widow maker. But the doctor's confidence and compassion helped our family set our fears aside and focus on being the support system that my husband needed. Thank you Dr Bolanos and, go Go Gators!

Dr Bolanos has a great personality and kept me well informed as to what was going to happen with my surgery. I was having a triple bypass, and was apprehensive about the procedure. He kept telling me I was going to do great with it. His reassuring me really helped me. He saw me everyday before and after the surgery. I went home in 4 days and have done great. I could not have been happier with Dr Bolanos and his team. I highly recommend him and his associates for their caring and highly professional attitude and their skill as surgeons.

Dr. Bolanos was wonderful during my coronary artery bypass surgery. He was very caring and compassionate. He spoke in terms I could understand and a answered all of my questions. I felt very confident in him and would highly recommend him. His staff was also amazing!!!Thank you to this wonderful Doctor!

Dr. Bolanos' expertise, compassion and bedside manner are invaluable! From our consultation appt to discharge, he was attentive to my husband's every need. Dr. Bolanos explained every step of my husband's valve replacement/aortic repair in understandable terms. He was so attentive after surgery, helping both of us through this difficult open heart surgery. The team, his nurse and PA, that he works with are beyond compare! We can't say enough about how highly we regard his talent and support!

Dr. Bolanos saved my life 8/20/23 to 8/21/23. First God, then his hands, his knowledge and expertise. He gave me back life where other Doctors may not have even tried. My case was critical with only 1% survival rate and here I am, working, healthy, and eternally grateful. My daughters and I Love Dr. Bolanos. May he continue being blessed and saving lives.
