I delt with Dr. Mangonon at Lawnwood Medical Center &Heart Institute. He did a valve replacement for my daughter, Cristina in 2013 and open heart surgery for my husband George in 2014. He is a man of great skill and humility. As a Cardiac nurse myself, I have great admiration for and feel privileged to have known and trusted this man. God bless.

Dr. Mangonon is equally a very good manager and trusts his employees for patient feedback, progress and team input. He makes no decisions until he meets with this team for all input. If you require heart surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Mangonon and his team.

My dad was diagnosed with a serious heart disease and needed a surgery. Dr. Mangonon performed quadruple bypass surgery to my dad, it was a success! The pre-op and post-op care was exceptional.

ASSORTED TESTIMONIALS
Our family would like to thank Dr. Mangonon for saving our father's life today. When 4 other doctors said heart surgery not a possibility, Dr. Mangonon stepped in and said YES it was and he was right. My father would've died without this man's saving grace❤. Forever grateful!

Dr. Mangonon performed a quadruple bypass on my husband about five weeks ago. The healing process has been very good which we attribute to the very successful surgery. He is now breathing and getting around better than he has in many years and looking forward to being able to do things that he hasn't been able to do in years. Thank God for Dr. Mangonon!

GM for BH
There aren't enough words to thank you for saving my husband's life. Thank God he is doing great! When he tells people about his surgery, he lights up and tells everyone that you came to see him in the hospital. That visit impressed him so much. Doctors don't do that anymore
C & JA
In 2011 Dr Mangonon and Dr Downing, took hours to repair my heart with a 5 way bypass at Lawnwood Regional Medical Center in Ft. Pierce, FL. Had a 10 yr stress test and my heart looked perfect. He truly gave me my life back. I'm 74 now and have no heart issues. Trust this man to save your life.
Curtis White
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the care you provided to my husband ********. A special thanks to Valerie and Erika ...... You are all a credit to your profession.
DA and Family
Dr. Mangonon is a great surgeon and is surrounded by some of the best OR nurses, CVICU, and surgical techs. After discussing the procedure with Dr. Mangonon, it gave us complete hope that he is the surgeon for the case. He rounded on my (family member) routinely, multiple times a day even in between his cases.
Darshan Patel
Dr Mangonon, I remember you telling me that we cross paths for a reason. Well I believe God sent me an angel to keep me around. Always remember how special you are to so many. Thank you!

You have become an important part of my life's story I shall always cherish. Thank you so much!
Michael M.
I just wanted to express my deepest thankfulness and appreciation for your work and helping me heal from my surgery on **/** for a mitral valve. Listening to the nurses in the CVICU talk about you with such reverence I realized just how fortunate I was to have you as my surgeon.
RW
Just wish to express our appreciation for your time and patience during our appointment yesterday. You were able to address our concerns to our satisfaction and also gave us a sense of 'peace of mind' which we were needing for now. Hopefuly I will not need your services in the future but if I do I would feel that I was in 'good hands'.
JW & PM
Around 6 months ago, Dr. Mangonon performed a mediastinoscopy and endoscopy on me to determine the extent of my lung cancer. A few days after that, he removed the upper lobe of my right lung that contained the tumor and several lymph nodes. He was confident right after the surgery that he was able to rid me of all the cancer. The pathology report confirmed this. I just had my 6-month scan, and I am still cancer free.
Carla
Dr Mangonon is unbelievable! … best thing that ever happened to me … he is AMAZING!
JH
Thank you just does not seem to be enough. You have been with my husband through surgery to recovery. He has made great strides forward but not without your words of encouragement and constant visits.
