Carilion Clinic Launches Heart Valve Microsite!
I am very excited to announce that Carilion Clinic just launched a Heart Valve Clinic Microsite at HeartValveSurgery.com!
If you didn't know... Carilion, which is located in Roanoke, Virginia, has been performing heart procedures for more than 30 years. Many patients from our community — including Michael Siska and Bobby Broughman — have had great surgical outcomes at Carilion.
About The Carilion Heart Team
On the surgical side, Dr. Joseph Baker and Dr. Joseph Rowe are Carilion's leading valve experts. Dr. Baker, for example, has performed over 1,500 heart valve procedures during his 23-year career. On the interventional cardiology side, Dr. Jason Foerst and Dr. Timothy Ball have been working on the minimally invasive, catheter based therapies -- including transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
To learn more about TAVR from Dr. Foerst, here is a great educational video.

On behalf of our patient and caregiver community, many thanks to the entire team at Carilion for supporting this website! A special thanks goes out to Drs. Baker, Rowe, Foerst, Ball, Slowikowski, Sheree Emore and Laura Markowski for becoming our newest sponsor.
Keep on tickin!
