Let's Connect at the Bicuspid Aortic Valve Conference in Chicago Next Tuesday!

By Adam Pick on September 10, 2014

Great news! Next Tuesday, September 16, I'll be speaking at the "Bicuspid Aortic Valve -- Beyond The Basics" conference in Chicago. The event, which is hosted by Northwestern Medicine's Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute and Lurie Children's Hospital is going to be an incredible experience with several leading BAV specialists including Dr. Puthumana, Dr. Fedak, Dr. Young and Dr. Malaisrie. Please see the the flyer below for details.

Also, if you have just been diagnosed with a bicuspid valve -- which is the most common congenital defect affecting up to 2% of the population -- here's a great educational video about BAV with Dr. Paul Fedak.

Many thanks to the Northwestern and Lurie Children's Hospital teams for hosting this special event and inviting me to participate. I am really looking forward to this event.

Hope to see you in Chicago!
Adam
