Dr. Costantini quickly gained national attention as the physician who cared for the infamous “Stingray Jim” Bertakis.
Bertakis was enjoying a laesurely cruise down a Florida canal when out of the water flew a 36-inch, 32-pound spotted eagle ray, that slammed into him from the blind side. Its “stinger” plunged into Jim’s chest, piercing his lung, then snapping off, leaving two inches of the venomous, razor sharp and serrated barb inside of him. Only two other people in recorded medical history have survived a stingray barb to the heart area – they were both 35 years old or younger. At the time of his attack, Bertakis was 81.
Because of the excellent care and treatment from Dr. Costantini, Bertakis made a full recovery. See more of this incredible story here.
