Dr. Jean P. Makris, MD - South Lake Tahoe Greg Gross: My 93-year-old mother suffered severe congestive heart failure. Dr. Makris, the ER, ICU and MedSurg nurses at Barton Memorial Hospital not only pulled her through, but provided priceless insight on her treatment and care, past and future. I’m taking Mom home tomorrow. Without Dr. Makris and her team, I’d be planning a funeral tonight.
