My First Trip To The American Heart Association Conference!
Good news! Six years into this project, I finally made it to the American Heart Association conference.
Needless to say, the event lived up to expectations. The conference was full of great lectures, amazing exhibits and a lots of people.
I'm not sure exactly how many people were at the event but I heard that more than 20,000 people usually attend the conference. There were cardiologists, surgeons, nurses and medical teams from countries all over the world.
Next up... I'll be attending the Dallas-Leipzig Valve Conference in Dallas which starts this Wednesday, December 5 in Dallas, Texas.
Keep on tickin!
