I came to the hospital very sick. Dr Vesco and his great staff visited me every day and kept me informed on my progress and what would happen next. I feel great,, still recovering but already better then I have in years. I'm so very grateful. Could not ask for better

Thanks to Dr. Vesco's skills I feel like I got my life back. I had a very very large hiatal hernia that had allowed my stomach to attach to one lung making breathing difficult with any type of exertion. Dr. Vesco was able to repair it using minimally invasive surgery. I had previously been told it was too large to repair using this type of surgery. Because of what I had read and been told about potential problems and side effects, I was very hesitant to have the surgery. Dr. Vesco took time to answer our questions and explain his expertise in this area. He gained the confidence of myself and my husband. The surgery and recovery went very well. I highly recommend him.

I was very fortunate to have found Dr. Paul Vesco. He is an extremely skilled and compassionate surgeon. He was very thorough in explaining the surgery process to me, alleviating my fears. I highly recommend him and his team. Thanks to his PA, Spencer, also for his knowledge, care and compassion.

I was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis in March of 2020 CT Scan showed a mass on my thymus gland. Dr Vesco performed a Thymectomy on me in April. OMG , this guy is a Rock Star - he robotically removed my gland along with the mass using only 3 small holes Absolutely no pain , in and out of the hospital in 3 days and walking the beach on the fourth. Don’t bother looking elsewhere ( outside Sarasota ) for a better surgeon , this guy is the real deal. Thank you Dr Vesco , your entire staff and Sarasota Memorial Hospital ????

Dr.Vesco is the total professional, from my first office visit, where he thoroughly explained all of the aspects of the procedure he would perform, to his "bedside manner" after, he couldn't have made me feel more secure.I trusted Dr. Vesco with my life, and reccomend him without reservation.

After several unsuccessful procedures to correct atrial fibrillation, I had the good fortune of meeting Dr. Vesco. Last June, Dr. Vesco put my heart back in rhythm. After 81/2 months I've still got rhythm, I've still got rhythm! I wish there was an adequate way to thank this great doctor for giving me the gift of a longer life!

Your nice comments are a great way to say thanks!

In February 2019 Dr Vesco removed a large portion of my left lung in order to remove a cancer tumour which was very close to my Aorta. I have no cancer in my body, one year later. I do not need a inhaler and I do Zumba twice a week. My breathing is almost normal. I am delighted with the outcome. Dr Vesco is very informative from day 1. You know exactly what to expect. What high class surgeon.
