Dr. Edward Soltesz, MD

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Soltesz for his exceptional care and expertise in performing my open heart surgery and valve replacement. From the very first consultation, I was impressed by Dr. Soltesz's thoroughness, compassion, and ability to explain complex medical procedures in a way that I could understand. He took the time to answer all of my questions and address my concerns, which greatly eased my anxiety about the upcoming surgery.During my six week hospital stay, Dr. Soltesz and his team visited me daily to check on my progress and provide updates on my condition. He was always patient, kind, and reassuring, and he never failed to put me at ease. His bedside manner is truly exceptional, and he has a genuine gift for making his patients feel cared for and valued.The surgery itself was a success, and I am now recovering well. Ten months later I am on the tennis court three hours a day and have fully resumed my previous life at 75 years young. Thanks!

I met Dr.E.Soltesz at cleveland Clinic when I was brought there for possible heart surgery. We spoke briefly when I was brought to the operating room for by pass surgery. He made me feel safe and comfortable immediately. I trusted him at that moment. He made sure I was well taken care of. He has a special gift. I will deeply be grateful to him forever.

In 02/18 Dr Soltesz performed my husband’s aortic aneurysm surgery and replaced a mushy aorta. Thanks to Dr Soltesz expertise and the care from all the staff at Cleveland Clinic my husband is able to live a normal life. Thank you!

Dr Soltesz is in my opinion, one of the BEST surgeons. He knew what would be best for my heart, he did it, and I am extremely healthy now.

Dr. Soltesz, thank you for your surgical expertise in being able to perform all three coronary bypasses successfully on me. The surgical team did an excellent job in minimizing my post surgical pain during recovery. I am fortunate and grateful to have been a coronary bypass patient at the Cleveland Clinic. My post surgical progress has been very good! The Cleveland Clinic nurse practitioner commented during my virtual meeting that I look good going in on my 6th week of post op recovery and I feel very good! Again, Dr. Soltesz, I am very grateful you were my surgeon performing my triple coronary bypass operation. Thank you and the Cleveland Clinic! Richard Spicer

He operated on my mother when her own doctor in Iceland said no because she was old and wouldn't qualify Dr. Soltesz said she was very healthy for 73 year old woman and her operation was very successful and recovery even faster than expected and her scar healed fast for diabetic type 2 should. She got much better after or until she got back home that's when she started deteriorating and no after supervision or therapy got her basically back to same place before the surgery sadly but Dr. Soltesz gave her a chance to live longer and better than anyone had given her. She passed away from other health problems and it was her heart that was last to give up. Thank you Dr. Soltesz for taking such great care of my mother while we were there.
