Welcome To Heart Valve Journals!!!

Hello! My name is Adam Pick. I am a double heart valve surgery patient and author of The Patient’s Guide To Heart Valve Surgery. I recently created Heart Valve Journals to help patients and their support groups communicate.

Now, all patients with heart valve disease can have a free, online journal to share their experiences and keep their friends and family updated - from diagnosis to surgery through recovery. Please watch the video below to learn more.
