I’m happy to share that our webinar, “Advances in Heart Valve Reoperations”, was a wonderful success!
The webinar touched on many important considerations for patients including the use of new, transcatheter Valve-in-Valve procedures. Featured speakers on the webinar included Dr. Charles Davidson, Professor of Cardiology at Northwestern Medicine, Dr. Christopher Mehta, Assistant Professor of Cardiac Surgery at Northwestern Medicine, and Joy Marks, a heart valve reoperation patient.
If you missed the webinar… No problem! Here is a video playback of the live event. This video has already been viewed over 15,000 times at YouTube!
Many Thanks to Dr. Davidson, Dr. Mehta & Joy Marks!!!
On behalf of our entire patient community, many thanks to Dr. Charles Davidson and Dr. Christopher Mehta for taking time away from their busy practices at Northwestern Medicine to educate all of us about heart valve reoperations.
I also want to extend a tremendous thank you to Joy Marks, the two-time heart valve patient from Chicago, Illinois, who just had a transcatheter mitral valve replacement reoperation. Joy shared her story during the webinar. Thanks Joy!
Keep on tickin!
Adam
