I don't know where to start!
Words fail me to Express our greatest gratitude to Dr. Lugo and his staff.
My wife just had a tripple by-pass surgery and thank God we have Dr. Lugo on our side.
During the surgery from prep to finish I received updates every hour from one of Dr. Lugo's staff.
I was kept informed and updated on every step that was performed on my wife .
One wonders what is going through the minds of loved ones waiting in the waiting room? Then Dr. Lugo walks in and the anxious faces change to smiles after his briefing. Then Dr. Lugo runs back to the ICU to check on his patients.
I can't express my gratitude and appreciation in words.
Simply put Hands of gold mixed with compassion and knowledge.
5 stars to the moon and back a trillion time. Thank you Dr. Joseph lugo

Dr Lugo did my quadruple bypass almost a year ago. He did a great job. But he was a narcissist. I could tell that from the moment I met him. But I'm healed now. So I appreciate his work. The staff at Memorial is horrible though. I had a very scary and bad experience with all of this
★★★★★
Was just reminded of the quadruple bypass emergency surgery Dr Lugo performed on my Mother nearly five years ago that saved her life, and I thanked the doctor personally right after the surgery for doing just that. And Mom's recovery was nothing short of miraculous. Thanks again Doctor Lugo and the staff at Lake Charles Memorial.
★★★★★
Dr. Lugo has a professional team that I would recommend to anyone facing cardiovascular surgery.
He and his team have kept me informed trough all phases of my 5 bypass surgery.
I'm thankful Lake Charles Memorial Heart Center has Dr. Lugo and his professional team here for the citizens in our area.
