- State Sanctions
- Federal Sanctions
- Disciplinary Actions
Disciplinary actions are actions taken to punish or restrict physicians who have demonstrated professional misconduct. HealthGrades reports state and federal disciplinary actions (if any) from the previous 5 years except when a physician's license has been revoked or surrendered.
Physicians with a disciplinary action in one state will often move to another state where they may have a clean record. Since HealthGrades painstakingly compiles disciplinary action information from all 50 states, you'll know if a physician has an action in more than one state.
Board Certification- Is your physician board certified?
- In what specialties is your physician certified to practice?
Certification lets you know that a physician has gone above and beyond what medical licensure requires, receiving additional training and examination to be certified in a particular specialty.
A physician who is not board certified may still be an excellent physician. Some physicians choose not to apply for certification. If you are considering a doctor who is not board certified, it may be important to know why he or she is not certified.
Certification lets you know that a physician has successfully completed an accredited educational program, passed several evaluations, and possesses the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to provide care in the certified specialty. Once certified, physicians must attend continuing medical education programs throughout their careers in order to remain certified.
Education- Medical School
- Residency Training
- Internships
Physician education and training is demanding and extensive. Continuing medical education is a life-long pursuit due to constant advances and changes in medicine. With HealthGrades, you'll know if your physician is keeping up with all the latest technology.
The longer a physician has been practicing, the more likely that he or she is experienced with a wide variety of issues. A more recent graduate, however, may have in-depth knowledge about medical advances for treating a specific condition.

Care Philosophy:
“As cardiovascular, thoracic and vascular surgeon, I specialize in surgery of the heart, lungs and the major blood vessels of the body. I am proud to offer Southeast Texas the newest and most specialized cardiac, thoracic, and vascular surgical care. I offer state-of-the-art surgical treatment options, comprehensive care, and 24 hour availability. My goal is to provide you with the finest in medical care and to restore you as quickly as possible to good health.“ Dr. Stephen Maniscalco graduated with honors from Texas Tech University with a degree in chemical engineering and began working in the field before becoming interested in medicine. He soon became a licensed medical technician and worked on an ambulance crew on nights and weekends. Maniscalco ultimately went back to college with the goal of becoming a surgeon and graduated second in his class at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. Maniscalco trained in general surgery at the University of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky, then at Baylor College of Medicine, where he trained to become a heart and thoracic surgeon. He eventually became a member of the faculty. He also trained at M. D. Anderson in thoracic oncology. In 2002, after 11 years of training, Conroe Regional Medical Center recruited Maniscalco to work with its heart surgery program. One of Maniscalco’s passions is in bringing first-rate heart, thoracic and vascular surgery to local residents.Accepting New Patients:
