During my consultation at the chest clinic with Mr Bittar he made feel very relaxed and assured as he explained the surgery I needed, I felt completely at ease and confident that I was in good hands. I had complete trust in Mr Bittar and his skills as a cardiothoracic surgeon. The after care I received from him during recovery was second to none, he popped in every morning during my stay to check on my recovery. I would have no hesitation in recommending this surgeon.
I cannot think of any comments regarding improvements as he was first class.

His care was excellent and he was attentive each day following surgery during my hospital stay. He explained everything in detail on my 6 week check up and gave me reassurance. Thank you.
Profile
I am a cardiothoracic surgeon, my practice is mixed. In cardiac surgery I have a special interest in aortic surgery, minimally invasive aortic surgery, I also perform the general cardiac operations ( CABG, OPCAB and valve surgery). In thoracic surgery, I deal with chest wall, lung, pleural and mediastinal surgical diseases. I have special interest in the minimally invasive approach (video assisted thoracoscopic procedures-VATS lobectomy) and fractured ribs fixation.
I am interested in research; my qualification is a Medical Doctorate M.D. from Manchester University in 2007. My thesis was based on inflammatory response to the use of cardiopulmonary bypass in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This response was linked to certain genotypes of a certain polymorphisms.
My current affiliation is with the University of Salford, I am collaborating with researchers studying the myocardial cell dysfunction, the inflammatory response and its effect on the conduits that used in cardiac surgery.Recently I was appointed as a professor (Hon)@ the University of Salford.
