Many thanks for a great surgeon and person,
This tribute is long overdue -- by about four years. It was back in December, 2008 that my son, Patrick, had his first surgery with Dr John Siebert. From our first conversation, I knew I had found a very special doctor. One who gave us hope as parents of a child with PRS and showed Patrick kindness and respect throughout the entire process.
It wasn't an easy journey due to the nature of this disease but Dr Siebert's expertise in the field of micro vascular surgery gave us an option that provided the long term benefit of stopping any further deterioration. Had we not found Dr Siebert I'm not sure what Patrick's teenage years would've been like. All I know is what did occur -- this wonderful, competent doctor gave Patrick a chance and we will all be eternally grateful to him and his staff. He holds a special place in our hearts.
