Meet Mitch, Our Newest "Featured Patient" At Heart Valve Journals

By Adam Pick on January 23, 2012

I'm amazed by how fast Heart Valve Journals, our social network for patients and caregivers, continues to grow. I'm also very touched by the stories shared within this caring community.

As you may have seen, we always select one patient to be our "Featured Patient" within the community. That said, I would like to introduce you to Mitch Friedman, our current "Featured Patient".

I could tell you all about Mitch and his upcoming heart valve surgery planned for February 2, 2012 . Instead, I'll simply encourage you to click this link to learn about Mitch's pursuit of a healthy heart.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mitch -- now and on February 2nd. My hope is that Mitch has an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery.

Keep on tickin' Mitch!
Adam
