I heard sincere happiness in Dr. McGinn's voice upon learning I did not need pain medication before leaving the hospital following my triple bypass. That is when I knew I found the right thoracic surgeon.

Dr Mcginn did mutiple bypass surgery on me in Oct 2024. All went well except I had a lump near my i incision that caused me pain. It has been 7 months and after mutiple tests I found that the cause was a wire that wrapped my ribs together caused calcification. I made mutiple calls to Dr Mcginns Office to explain why those happened. I have yet to get a call back. Follow up is key to and business and I'm disappointed in Dr Mcginns lack of concern After surgery. That's not the way to treat patients.
Best staff I have ver encountered. They went out of their way to help at all times and always with a positive attitude. Their sense of urgency and professionalism are incomparable.

God bless you and your team we will be thankful and grateful for the rest of our life's for God and for an incredible doctor!!! Thank you
I had a heart bypass surgery procedure by Dr. McGinn in Miami FL February 16, 2023. This double bypass was done using McGinns own technique for a minimally invasive procedure. Which means he did not saw open my breastbone, or stop my heart and put me on a heart/lung machine during the procedure. I recovered very fast, so quickly it even surprised me...I was driving my car within 4 days of returning from the hospital...and back at work that same day. My healing has been uneventful, no bleeding, no infections, and very little pain at all. I could have had the old-fashioned bypass by any number of surgeons here Florida, but wanted to avoid the longer and more painful recovery. I can recommend Dr. McGinn without reservation. He has done thousands of these procedures...I regard him as a pioneer in the field. If you are at all able to get to Florida, this is the choice I woudl make.
