Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Still great 10 years after mitral valve fix
I was referred to Dr. Sewik by my Puyallup based cardiologist who claimed he and his partner were the two most experienced robotic heart surgeons in the Northwest. My mitral valve repair was done June 20, 2014. Yesterday I celebrated 10 years of great health since that day. He saved my life and I’m on zero heart meds! Dr Sewik is a very competent robotic heart surgeon.

Still going strong.
I was Dr. Siwek’s first patient to have a mitral valve surgery done robotically. 21 years later my cardiologist just told me that my valve sounds better than most do, even without a repair.

He performed aortic repair and I think he saved my life. I trusted him with my life and I would tell anyone needing heart surgery to go to him.
