Dr. Longhitano is a real pro, personable, tuned in to both me and my family, and very concerned with maintaining my reasonably good health, even tho I'm 80.I'm finding this is the the case with many docs, especially among new hires to Htfd. Health where smaller hospitals have been purchased by H.H. The plus with the acquisitions is that you can see specialists in many surrounding towns without having to trek to Hartford. I would never have surgery anywhere but Htfd. Hosp.

Dr Longhitano is an exceptional physician. He was thorough, competent, and demonstrated commitment to my medical challenges. He also has a wonderful sense of humor.

5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Longhitano is a wonderful cardiologist. He is very personable and caring doctor. I have been to him before I moved back from Georgia. The cardiologist I had in Georgia didn't care if you lived or died. Doesn't say much about their health care system does it. I came back to Connecticut for that reason, Dr. Longhitano cares about his patients. He's an awesome Cardiologist.
