I met Dr Cecaro many years ago now but he has always stayed in my memory. He had such a kind, understanding manner. It was if he truly cared, I have never felt so assured and and at ease with a dr. He helped me through a very difficult time and I will always be grateful for that. Thank you Dr fabz Bianca

My assessment was excellent. Dr Cecaro took his time and explain everything to me. I would certainly tell any one who has heart conditions to go see him.

Dr. Fabrizio took great care with details about my medication when I was a patient at the London Heart hospital this year. I had myocarditis and a suspected genetic heart defect and also a lung infection. He listened to my concerns about my symptoms andL how I was concerned about how I was going to travel back to the Isle of Wight, where I live, and also how I was going to be able to travel back to London for further tests for my potential heart defect. Once I was discharged, he answered my e-mails about my concerns about my blood pressure medication and was able to sort that out for me. I got the impression that Dr. Fabrizio genuinely feels empathy and compassion for his patients and does his utmost to help their individual medical problems.
