Review by Mary ***** October 1, 2025

5/5
Compassionate, Respectful, Kind, Knowledgeable, Intelligent, Professional, and Patient focused. It is very rare to find these attributes in a doctor but Dr. Nieber demonstrated all of these to me. The open-heart surgery itself was long and complicated. Dr. Nieber demonstrated patience, persistence, insight and great skill. Thank you I am forever indebted to you.
