Patient reviews Mr Franco Ciulli

Extremely fortunate to have been under the expert care of Mr Ciulli for my quintuple coronary artery bypass graft. The time he took to explain the procedure, answer questions and reassure me throughout was greatly appreciated and I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Ciulli.

Mr Ciulli provided essential reassurance at a stressful time with his expertise and advice. His frequent post-op visits succeeded an catching and addressing issues, which were essential for my full recovery.

Mr. Ciulli has amazed me by the outstanding quality of his care for both myself and my 79 year old sister. My own surgery was coronary bypass and my sister needed a replacement aortic valve. He went far in excess of every expectation in his care and deserves the highest praise!

Highly professional- answered all my questions and concerns. Patient and explained procedure treatment and possible side effects . Excellent follow up pre and post procedure, backed by an excellent support team

Mr Ciulli was recommended by a friend, and I have no hesitation in doing the same to anyone who needs heart surgery. For the Mitral Valve Repair that I had Mr Ciulli's expertise, attention to detail, explanation, skill, care and follow up has been first class.

I cannot praise Mr Ciulli High enough. I was put completely at ease from my very first meeting with him, he explained in detail all aspects of my procedure and I came away knowing I was in very safe hands. My operation went well and he regularly called in on me during my recovery

Professionalism and care that he has shown to me for my first meeting to my op and days afder have been outstanding he has given my life back outstanding

I found Mr Cuilli to be very professional,friendly and made me feel totally at ease

Throughout my x2 CABG the treatment received from Mr Ciulli, the surgery team and support staff was exemplary. I recommend Mr Ciulli without any hesitation.

Mr Ciulli & his team have been amazing. The level of care has been brilliant, alongside helpful, friendly & informative pre - op discussions with my consultant which made the thought of the procedure more bearable. Post-op support has been second to none with open communication.

If I could give more than five stars, I would. Dr. Ciulli has been excellent from the initial consultation until the present. The operation was not routine, so the experience and planning were crucial and successful. I was kept informed and felt reassured at all stages.

Franco was highly recommended by my Cardiologist to carry out a 'fiddly' x2 CABG procedure - he is highly experienced and well regarded in the profession.

I had a video call with which I was completely happy.

An uplifting experience

The whole appointment was excellent

very professional and excellant manner

Mr Ciulli made me feel comfortable and reassured at each stage of the procedure and recovery. I am very grateful.

I was a patient of Mister Ciulli in April 2021. I was referred for surgery to repair a heart valve prolapse. The lead up to surgery was difficult as the NHS was dealing with substantial cases of Covid and as a result surgery was being rescheduled as resources were tested. Mr. Ciulli made a point of discussing my surgery and difficulties in scheduling and contacted me directly to update me on progress and to check up on both my physical and emotional status. I was encouraged by his contact and obvious interest in me as a patient at a time when he was also under pressure due to the effects of the Covid pandemic. My operation was eventually carried out at the Bristol Spire Hospital as an NHS patient. My adsmission was the first time I had met with Mr. Ciulli and felt reassured by his interest and consideration for me. He went to great lengths to explain what was planned, the risks and, more importantly, the positive outcome I could expect from the operation. Although I knew that I needed to have this treatment to ensure a healthy future I was apprehensive about what was going to done to me. Mr. Ciulli’s manner showed empathy and professionalism which allayed much of the concern I had. I am here, on the mend and relieved that it is done. Now it’s up to me. I cannot judge his expertise as a surgeon as I was asleep when he did his best work but the results speak for themselves. I can ‘wholeheartedly’ say that he is a man I would put my trust in again without question. Thank you.
