Bueno, llegue a conocerlo por mediacion de otro cardiologo, Me confundió al principio, me iban a poner un desfibrilador y al final me hizo una ablacion de FA. Me tranquilizó su profesionalidad en el tema arritmias, creo que me puse en buenas manos, pero tampoco me explicó con anterioridad al procedimiento lo que me iba hacer, tuve que interesarme personalmente e informarme en el mismo Centro que me intervino. Pero bueno, fué todo muy bien y me tranquilizó ponerme en buenas manos, lo único falta de comunicación con el paciente ante un procedimiento de esas caracteristicas.

Mi experiencia es que acudí al Dr. Berruezo i no lo he vuelto a ver ni después de la intervención ni hacer el seguimiento.
Me trataron en la Clínica TEKNON i después de la intervención fue todo cada vez a peor.
A este doctor i a su equipo de doctores les falta mucha humanidad. Es una lástima. Fui por privado, nada de mutuas.

Profesional excepcional. Desde el principio, nos explicó de manera detallada la intervención que iban a realizarle a un familiar (una ablación cardíaca). Se toma todo el tiempo necesario para responder dudas y dejarte tranquilo de cara a la intervención quirúrgica. Asimismo, nos aseguró desde el primer momento su presencia en el momento de realizarla y así fue.
Siempre le estaremos eternamente agradecidos, Dr. Berruezo.

Solo puedo tener palabras de agradecimiento al Dr. Berruezo y a todo su equipo.
Me realizaron una ablación cardiaca.
Desde el primer momento la atención dedicada, las explicaciones y la confianza que me transmitieron fueron excelentes.
Pude presenciar toda la intervención que me realizaron y puedo asegurar que es espectacular la manera de proceder en todo momento, la profesionalidad, la atención al paciente y la humanidad de todo el equipo.
Muchas gracias!!

Después de dos ablaciones sigo igual. Estaba hundido y muy preocupado por mi arritmia. Se rió de mi, me dijo que estaba loco.

El unico contacto que tuve con el, fué para decirme que dia me operaban de arritmia (ablación) ya no lo vi mas. No me solucionaron la arritmia, que todo iba bien. Al dia siguiente de la operación me enviaron a casa, pese a que les dije que me dolia la cabeza, a las 2 horas volví a ingresar a urgencias con fiebre y una fuerte presión toracica. Unos inutiles.Me quitaron el esparadrapo super fuerte de la pierna y me arrancaron la carne, me dijeron que me pusiera crema. Todo ello en la Teknon. No pienso volver jamas.
