The hospitals cardiothoracic surgeon, Marc Gillinov, says 'Mr. Williams' operation went extremely well and we expect him to make a full recovery,' adding, 'His heart is strong and he will have normal heart function in the coming weeks with no limitations on what he'll be able to do.'
And, according to the actor's doctor, the funny man is already showing signs of his preoperative self, 'A couple of hours after surgery, he was entertaining the medical team and making us all laugh.'
Williams had to postpone his comical Weapons of Self-Destruction tour after he felt short of breath, after consulting with doctors it was confirmed that he would have to go under the knife.
'The 3 1/2-hour heart surgery was conducted to replace his aortic valve, repair his mitral valve and correct his irregular heartbeat,' said Marc Gillinov.
Williams has already thanked those who were involved in his treatment and care, 'The professionals at the University of Miami Hospital and ultimately the Cleveland Clinic were all fantastic,' he said. 'I can't thank them enough for their kindness and dedication while I was in their care.'
Adding a dash of humour into the mix, he joked, 'I can't wait to get back on the road. I'm thinking the next leg of the tour will be Weapons of Self-Destruction and Reconstruction!'
