Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Langley performed 2 open heart surgeries for my 9 months daughter with tetralogy of fallot with pulmonary atresia and we couldn’t be happier with the care that Dr. Langley and his team has given to my daughter. We can’t thank him enough for everything he has done for us.

Dr. Langley did my son's open heart surgery when he was 2 weeks old. He is now 2 and is still doing well. His staff was great very patient with any questions we had. You could really see the care for what they do and for my son. Thank you for everything.

Dr. Langley repaired my daughter’s AVSD. He is a brilliant cardiac surgeon who is also phenomenal in the way he builds relationship with his patients and their families. From the moment we met with him (when my daughter was in utero) we were confident that is she as the surgeon for the job and even with some cardiologist switches made sure to keep him as the surgeon. I cannot thank him enough for giving my daughter the rest of her life.

Dr. Langley was the biggest gift to our family. He treats not just the condition but each person in the family. He goes above and beyond to provide excellent care to his patients. He exceeded my already high expectations from speaking with him on the phone. He treated us with the utmost respect and brought together a fantastic team together that took time to explain things, draw pictures, and check in with us emotionally. We were checked on by Dr. Langley at all times of day and night. His kindn

Dr. Langley and his team were nothing short of amazing. He and Chelsea, his PA took ample time explaining every detail of what was going on during every step. Our daughter's heart condition is not only complex, it is also very rare and the whole team took their time in deciding on the best course of action for her future. We traveled from NC for her surgery and will do it again without hesitation. We have received the very best care anyone can ask for.

Dr. Langley has been amazing, not just as a surgeon, but also as a person. He has gone way beyond anything we could of ever hoped for. Dr. Langley took an extensive amount of time with us every step of the way and is the epitome of what a doctor should be. He genuinely cares and it shows in the way he dedicates his time and efforts to help along the entire journey. We traveled 700 miles for him to do our daughters surgery and would travel it again without thinking to receive his care!!!!

Our son was born with transposition of the Great Arteries and Dr. Langley fixed him when he was just 4 days old. We found out about our son's condition when I was pregnant, so we were able to work with Dr.Langley before, during and after surgery. Every step of the way he and his team were attentive and thorough. We are eternally grateful for this doctor and team that saved our son's life.

Dr. Langley recently performed my valve replacement surgery, a procedure which I had been delaying for years due to my inability to find a competent, caring local surgeon. As Dr. Langley is a recent newcomer to the Tampa area, I was referred to him and immediately felt comfortable placing my heart in his hands (yes, literally). Dr. Langley and his care team are top-notch health care providers; all of whom I recommend without hesitation.

Dr. Langley is truly amazing. He always gave us ample time to ensure that all of our questions were answered. His genuine care and compassion remained very evident each time we spoke with him. Dr. Langley is an incredibly skilled surgeon. He performed a very complicated surgery on our daughter, including a cone reconstruction to repair her tricuspid valve. Thanks to Dr. Langley’s skill and precision, our daughter now has a fully functioning heart for the first time in her life!

We were more than happy with Dr. Langley. Successful open heart surgery on our 3 year old son. Dr. Langley thoroughly explained everything to us and gave us as much time as we needed to talk with him. He stopped in daily (including weekends) to follow our son’s progress. If you want a great pediatric heart surgeon that actually cares, this is your man. He also does a fairly decent British accent.

First let me give you a little background on myself: I am a double major in chemistry and medical ethics as well as a certified EMT. When I found out that my son would be born with a congenital heart defect (Tetralogy of Fallot), I went on a search for the best care available. All pediatric cardiac centers will put on a convincing pitch for your little one, but they are NOT all created equal. Dr. Langley has the best survival numbers period.

Dr. Langley is an incredible physician. He was the surgeon for my mechanical aortic valve replacement surgery. They couldn't have picked a better man for the job. He thoroughly researched a previous open-heart operation I had before the surgery, that did not go quite as planned, which allowed him to be maximally prepared. I had a very speedy recovery, home just three days after open-heart surgery! Dr. Langley also did an amazing job on my scar which looks miles better than my previous scar.

My experience with Dr. Langley was absolutely wonderful. Dr. Langley performed my surgery to correct Scimitar Syndrome via thoracotomy. He was very honest and helpful about describing each step of the procedure, as well as how much pain I would be in during recovery. Dr. Langley took the time to answer all of the many questions my dad came up with each time we saw him. My family and I are very pleased with the outcome and thankful for Dr. Langley, as I felt no pain and now have a beautiful scar.

Dr. Langley repaired our 18 year old daughter's Scimitar Syndrome via a thoracotomy in June 2016. He is a brilliant surgeon and a kind, compassionate, and patient individual. From initial consultation to hospital discharge (and the many interactions in-between) he answered all of our questions and addressed our concerns/fears. We felt at ease asking the many questions needed to understand the entire process, while never feeling rushed. She has recovered well and the incision looks beautiful!

Dr. Langley performed open heart surgery on my daughter. My daughter was adopted internationally and, as such, received a later-than-usual repair. Dr. Langley was very thorough in explaining our daughter's medical condition and what was involved in correcting the issue. He did an outstanding job correcting her congenital heart defect, and my daughter is thriving today thanks to Dr. Langley and his team.

Dr. Langley is wonderful. We are so, so thankful to have put our daughter in his very capable hands for her open heart surgery. Not only did he take his time with us to make sure all of our questions and concerns were addressed prior to her surgery, but he followed up with us every single day (she had her surgery on Tuesday and was able to be discharged on Friday!) that she spent in the ICU. Our daughter is now resting comfortably at home, only 9 days post-op, and she is doing very well.
