On August 11, 2011 I collapsed with Sudden Cardiac Death and had a stroke. I was in a coma for 2 weeks. Dr Dao was on duty that night when I was life flighted into UTHSC hospital in San Antonio. He visited and talked to me every day when I was in the coma and he had never seen me before! When I woke up I could barely speak or make myself understood. Often what came out of my mouth wasn't what I meant to say. He really cared about me as a patient and a person. I am alive today because of the great care I received from Dr Dao when nationally 2% or less survive. Not recover. Just Survive. And I'm recovered. To look at or talk to me you can't tell that I ever collapsed at all. He always gave me the best care and I am truly grateful for my life. How does one thank a doctor for saving their life? Thank you so much Dr. Dao. I'm doing good. I hope to see you again one day. I give him the very best rating.
